Andy Dalton was #9 in the league last year in terms of total "yards gained through the air" with 2323 yards. This takes YAC out of the equation.

Also, I'm not sure why being a deep ball thrower even matters when talking about MVP...it's not a requirement.
Tom Brady dinked and dunked his way to multiple Super Bowls, and many consider him the GOAT.
Would you take Jamarcus Russell over Tom Brady just because Russell could throw a ball 40 yards sitting down? I think not.
Dalton was one of the best deep ballers in the league when he had health WRs in 15.
Dalton will have his MVP season this year if the OL can do its job.
