The bump in passer rating says that he would have been playing a bit better, but still likely a regression from 2013.

One game. You know which one.

2.0 



The top part of the chart is just to show that his numbers last year really aren't all that different from previous years. Top you want the number to stay the same as much as possible because it means you've had a lot of good/great games. Bottom part you want to change as fast as possible because it means you've not had as many bad games. 

Now, the very bottom numbers are his game against the Browns. If you change the 2.0 to a 54.0, a bad game to be sure and something more along the lines of his really bad games, it raises his overall rating to 87.2.  

That one game crushed his overall rating. Not that i'm saying he was good last year. You want a "good" QB to raise the play of those around him. I think he certainly did, some, with Sanu taking over the #1 for a while, but missing Green as much as he did, Jones all year and Eifert for all but 1 quarter; that's asking a lot of a QB that's not "elite" to continue to put up the numbers he's used to putting up. 

I don't agree with not passing the eye test, myself. If you go back and watch the games, more than not, you'll see an "average" QB doing the best he could with what he had.
