Andy has a career rating of 89.0. Cam has a career rating of 86.7.

Cam has a career completion % of 58.9. Dalton has completed 62.9%. Anything in the 50's is bad by today's standards. Dalton has been better in every facet you normally judge QB play by. Cam has better rushing stats. That's really about it.

Also, I've seen some anti-Andy guys on here claim that you judge QB's by their floor. If that's the case, Cam had a season with a 75.8 rating. Can you imagine if Andy had such a season? Andy's worst post-rookie season ended with an 83.5 rating. With a glut of injuries at receiver. Yet Andy got roasted for that...and it was a whopping 7.7 points better than Cam's 2016 season.

Not to mention it was probably the worst MVP QB seasons in recent times. The last 5 QBs to win MVP...

'11 Aaron Rodgers... 68.3% completion / 4,643 yards (9.2 AVG) / 45 TD, 6 INT / 122.5 QB Rating
'13 Peyton Manning... 68.3% completion / 5,477 yards (8.3 AVG) / 55 TD, 10 INT / 115.1 QB Rating
'14 Aaron Rodgers... 65.6% completion / 4,381 yards (8.4 AVG) / 38 TD, 5 INT / 112.1 QB Rating
'15 Cam Newton... 59.8% completion / 3,837 yards (7.8 AVG) / 35 TD, 10 INT / 99.4 QB Rating
'16 Matt Ryan... 69.9% completion / 4,944 yards (9.3 AVG) / 38 TD, 7 INT / 117.1 QB Rating

One of those years are not like the others. The last time a QB won MVP without....
4k+ yards was 2010
8.0+ AVG was 2010
QB Rating of at least 100.0 was 2009
>35 Passing TD was 2008
65%+ completion was 2003
60%+ completion was 1997

One or two of those isn't a bad thing, but when you start adding up all the various worst-since together, it's not so hot.

Also just tonight he put up 53.8% completion / 239 yards (4.6 AVG) / 1 TD, 3 INT / 48.5 QB Rating in a loss.
