I have been a fairly heavy Dalton supporter (not defender), but this really says he was MOSTLY holding the team back. Sad.
If you have the gumption, it would be interesting to see this same metric for like the Browns. I predict that even though we'll still say Dalton held the team back, I think it would also make us feel pretty damn lucky to have had what we had over the decades.
Also it might be interesting to plot this with a 3rd metric - league wide OLINE rating. Per haps make is a bubble, with size being rating. If OLine rating go back that far. i say this because in 81, 88 and 2005 I know we had one of the Top OLines in the league and Dalton benefited from a quality OLine until Zeitler and Whit left in the same year, and Dalton wasn't the same after that. With that said, Burrow ended up where he did on the chart with one of the worst OLines in the league, so I think it would be interesting to add that in. Or 3 different colors for OLine rank. Upper 3rd, middle 3rd, lower 3rd, etc. Just throwing something out there. I know it's more work, and i don't know if OLINE were ranked as far back as 1969.
Anyway. Cool stuff.
A 3 dimensional graph with Z axis would be super cool!
