You are ranking Dalton behind a bunch of guys who have had worse careers (lower QB rating) just because they had a good season in '17.  Stafford ranked #6 in passer rating in '17, but has a lower career passer rating that Dalton.  

Josh McCowan has been an NFL QB for 15 seasons and has only 3 seasons with a passer rating over 80.  Yet you are saying he is a top 10 QB compared to Dalton because he had a nice 2017 season. 

Mental gymastics and stat spinning at its finest.  Just another attempt to ignore that fact that QBs have up and down seasons.  You can't compare single seasons to career numbers.

And you cannot claim that Andy is a top 10 QB when his constantly finishes middle of the pack. Believe it or not a champion is football is awarded every year, so if you and others want to suggest years are not as important as careers then I suggest you ask an Eagles fan for their opinion. That top 10 career passer rating sounds great, but what does it actually do for us? Nothing, it's just something folks can bring up and ignore what every rational expert says. 

But I get it, you and others on the forum come into this season putting Andy top 10, I'll most likely but him midpack again. Then we'll see whose right and who is "getting silly"
