He has regressed every year, and he's only had better stats than Dalton his rookie year. On top of that he's been working with better talent, and a much softer division.
I don't think Dalton is a whole lot better than Cam, but I think Dalton is slightly better.
Outside of pass yards and rush yards, I don't think Cam has regressed every year.
Total TD's:
2011: 35
2012: 27
2013: 30
2014: 23
Passer rating:
2011: 84.5
2012: 86.2
2013: 88.8
2014: 82.1
His passer ratings have almost mirrored Dalton's. His production was down some last year as he battled through injury while breaking in a rookie #1 WR. He's still the same Cam, he just needs to get healthy.
You're right that Cam hasn't had a better year than Andy since they were rookies. Dalton actually has more total TD's (89) than Cam (80) during that span and a higher passer rating (86.7 to 85.8). Although I don't think the difference in weaponry has been huge, I have to give the edge to Dalton just for having AJ Green.
Like I said to Stormborn, the production has been close. I just feel that Cam is all around more talented. The numbers for both QB's are so close that they don't really help either side of the argument. Just personal preference really. I'll take the QB who had the physical talent to be selected #1 overall.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
