That’s why I think it’s best to actually compare him to his own peers. The game has just changed too much to be comparing a QB from the 2010’s to ones that played 30 years ago.

Now there’s a couple things you can look at like completion percentage and passer rating, but total yards is obviously going to be skewed in the favor of the modern day QB. They just didn’t throw as much back then. Here’s the number of passes Boomer attempted in his 3 playoff games in 88 (19, 20, 25). Here’s Dalton’s in his 4 games (42, 30, 51, 35).
