Perhaps they forgot how good that team was.

2015:
7th in scoring offense
2nd in scoring defense

Before Dalton went down, they were 10-2.

That team, with Dalton, had Green, Eifert, Marvin Jones, Sanu, Bernard, Hill, Whitworth, Boling, Zeitler, Andre Smith, Burfict, Adam Jones, Nelson, Atkins, Dunlap, Michael Johnson, Hall, Iloka.

As much as I've been impressed with the 5-2 start this year, I don't have confidence that the 2021 team could beat the 2015 team (with Dalton at QB).

Right? The recency bias is real. 

That 2015 defense was ELITE. I think the game itself would be epic but I would honestly maybe lean toward the 2015 team winning. They were just such a solid damn team, both offensively and defensively. 

The real question is who would win - the 2005 or 2015 team?
