Pss efficiency rating is "analytics"

Yes it does.  Incompletions are part of the calculation.

For his career Dalton is among the elite when it comes to lowest fumble%.  These numbers are from after the '17 season,

--Among the 26 QBs with at least 2000 attempts only 3 QBs had a fum% under 1.00 (Ryan, Dalton, Brees).

Despite playing behind a weak O-line last year Dalton's sack rate was top 10 (lowest) at 5.4%.  It was the 4th time in his 8 year career he finished in the top 10.
