Who was slightly behind?
Burrow is slightly behind. See my above post.
That doesn't mean I think Dalton was a better QB. Burrow has far more potential for greatness. But strictly looking at their rookie seasons, it's 100% accurate to say Dalton was slightly better compared to his peers...which is how comparisons across eras should be made.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
