It doesn't matter when Flacco or Eli went on their runs, the fact that they did puts them ahead of guys like Andy and Stafford. It's not like Joe and Eli have been completely miserable in the regular season either, both have had some fine seasons and some good ones as well.

Andy had high volume totals 1 time in his career, and that does not make a top 10 QB. With that logic, you should think Matthew Stafford is God's gift to the universe.

Andy has been playing great thus far in 2015, so at the end of the year we can have this discussion again and see if this season helps him out in the rankings.

Rankings should be what the QBs are doing that year. Not what they did in the past. Joe Flacco, and Eli manning played like garbage in 2013.

Flacco        = 19 TD 22 INTs
E. Manning = 18 TD 27 INTs

Just because they had a great playoff run a few times doesn't mean that they're better. How do you know that they didn't just go on a run like Dalton did in October?  Plus both of their teams played great around them in the playoffs, something that can't be said about the Bengals.

Oh... and don't you think it's funny Dalton always plays great when he actually has offensive weapons around him? His first 2 years bottom half of the league in offensive weapons. 4th year bottom half of the league in offensive weapons, but the years he played great he had weapons... Hmmm
