but I will say without hesitation that AJ is a hell of a lot closer to being elite than Andy.
Now this is weird as I would say the same thing about AJ and Dalton.
However I disagree, due that I think Dalton could get us to the promise land without AJ. However I don't think AJ can get us to the promise land with Josh McCown or Blaine Gabbert or Jake Locker, ect.
As far as everything lining up... that is every QB. Do you think Foles would be Superbowl MVP if he was still with the Rams? Or if Wentz doesn't get injured?
Hell even the "elites" (Brees, Rodgers, Rivers and Brady), can't win if everything doesn't line up. Rivers doesn't even have a SB appearance. Brees and Rodgers only have 1 each. Brady is the outlier and that could be due to the system and if Brady were with say, the Lions, would have been out of the league in a few years after his draft.
As I asked before, in the playoff game against the Colts, where was our dominant defense in stopping a Colts team that had back ups along the OLine?
They were no where, and many (you might be included) would point at the coach for their failure in that game. Yet Dalton is mediocre because... reasons.
