I did mention we don't know how he would have finished in 2015 and history has shown he usually doesn't finish the season with a high passer rating. Given that. If you want to use a passer rating difference of 1.9 as some sort of validation of Andy's awesomeness. Have at it.

Anybody that assessed Cam's overall game would point to his ability to run; they would not do so for Andy. So once again: If you want to use a passer rating difference of 3.1 as some sort of validation of Andy's awesomeness. Have at it.

I think Dalton is better because his passer rating was 16 points higher than Cam's this season. Cam completed an abysmal 52.9% of his throws (lowest % I've seen from a non-Tebow starter in many years) while Dalton completed nearly 65% and hasn't completed less than 64% since 2013. Dalton has ascended as a passer over the last couple seasons, whereas it seems Cam plateaued as a rookie.

I will always take the better passer at QB over the better runner. While Dalton is still going strong 5-6-7 years from now, history shows us that Cam will likely lose his legs and once that threat is gone, his effectiveness as a passer will likely decrease as well. All of this isn't even getting into Cam getting benched temporarily and chastised by pretty much everyone for his sour ***** attitude while Andy is an exemplary teammate.

As for the playoff stuff, I get that you're a big Marv guy, but most people feel he's the problem behind his 0-7 record (0-3 without Andy...with abysmal offensive/QB performance in every game). I know you also felt Carson was the problem during his era...maybe instead of always looking at QB, you should instead look at the one constant? HC's can have a major impact on their players. We see it every year in the NFL. Marv just can't get his guys over the playoff hump.
