The above is a comparison that has been made far too many times in this forum. There are a good many current QBs that would do just fine behind this oline. Russell Wilson has played behind terrible protection and no rushing game and is having a fine season. Aaron Rodgers was getting killed (got killed) and had a WR as a RB. Kirk Cousins has no oline or WRs and his RB is someone called Fat Rob. Hell even Josh McCown with absolutely nothing in NYJ currently has a passer rating in the high 90s.

This is a comparison that has been made far too often in this forum. Wilson has been sacked once every 14.6 attempts. Dalton has been sacked once every 9.8 attempts. Huge difference. If you average out those rates to 500 attempts, Wilson would be sacked 34 times and Dalton 51 times. Dalton is pressured/sacked at a far higher rate.

The Seahawks average 30 more rush yards per game and their YPC is a respectable 3.8, compared to a dismal 3.1 for the Bengals.
