By definition, that's a comparison with his own past performance, not that of others. When you start with the wrong answer, you don't get to go back and change the question.
***** your knee up is regressing.
Dalton has more yards, a better passer rating, more TD's, less INTs per game, more rushing yards, more rushing TD's....
Etc. etc. etc.
Ben's stats are looking increasingly pedestrian next to Dalton's because he wasn't strong enough to handle a hit to his leg that Dalton would have brushed off. That's the point.
Besides, Dalton's stats are only marginally better in some categories and marginally worse in others. I'd say they're pretty even at this point (particularly in averages 'per game'). Dalton has obviusly improved (thus far), but that has nothing to do with an assessment of Ben 'regressing'.
