Anyone who lknows anything about rating QBs, that is who cares.

People who know how the NFL works are familiar with QBs having up years followed by down years followed by more up years.  that nis why they do not look at one year to judge a QB (unless he is getting old and at the end of his career)

When Brett Favre was Andy's age (30) he had a passer rating of 74.7 and 78.0 the next year.  But then he followed those two down seasons with three staright Pro Bowl seasons and went on to post 5 seasons with a 90+ passer rating.

In the three season when Ken Anderson was 29-31 years old he had a combined passer rating of 68.9, but at age 32 and 33 he lead the league in passer rating both seasons, won an MVP, and set the single season completion percentage record.

I could go on and on and on with many more examples.  But my point is that if yuou think people just look at one year to judge to talent of a 30 year old QB then you have no clue how the NFL works.
