Every QB needs talent around him. Over the previous two seasons Aaron Rodgers is 9-12-1 as a starter.
Dalton is not the reason we are losing. He has a 99.3 rating and is leading the league in passing yards.
This is a fallacious argument. He's on Pace for a league record of passes thrown, he should be leading in passing yards.
Dalton isn't on Rodgers level so I'm not sure why you'd even compare them.
The 99.3 rating means very little to me. Analytics say he's a 20ish QB. QB rating doesn't account for missed throws that should have been TDs, fumbles or bad sacks taken.
If the team finishes with a top 10 pick, I'd be willing to bet they go QB. Rookie QB contract allows you to blow money on the line and weapons.
Dalton may not be the reason we are losing but that knife cuts both ways. He's also not the reason we are winning. We shouldn't be satisfied with average. KC took a risk and I can't imagine how exciting it'd be to be a KC fan right now
