Looks pretty much like a rankings of QBs based on team wins, and not performance. I've banged on Dalton in the past but this year he had one of his best seasons as pro (in the top 2). The numbers may not be as flashy (TDs), but Andy stepped up and really took that offense onto his back when they needed quiet consistency (only 8 int).

What fantasy? If we say Dalton is a top tier QB in this league then Luck has to be there as well. It's a fact, not a fantasy. Look at the stats. Dalton and Luck both had one of their best seasons and their numbers are virtually identical.
Attempts: Luck 545/ Dalton 563
Comp: Luck 346/Dalton 364
Comp Pct: Luck 63.5%/ Dalton 64.7%
Yards: Luck 4,240/ Dalton 4,206
Average: Luck 7.8/ Dalton 7.5
Yards Per Game: Luck 282.7/ Dalton 262.9
TD: Luck 31/ Dalton 18
Int: Luck 13/ Dalton 8
Sacked: Luck 41/ Dalton 41
Rating: Luck 96.4/ 91.8
And they both did it with pretty damn bad offensive lines which were both in the bottom 10 of the league.
Quote:22. Indianapolis Colts (68.0)
The Colts have allowed the most total pressures in the entire league, at 159, in 409 pass-blocking snaps. Only two lines have been asked to pass protect on more snaps (Green Bay and Jacksonville), but that still is the worst rate in the league, and a total that would be one of the worst we have seen over the past decade. The issue, though, is that Andrew Luck holds the ball longer than any QB in the league outside of Tyrod Taylor, averaging 2.75 seconds per attempt, so this line is pass blocking longer than nearly any other unit. The starting five is less of an issue than the depth, but any time they have been forced to the bench, things have been ugly. Jack Mewhort has yet to allow a single sack or hit across 298 pass-blocking snaps at guard.
23. Cincinnati Bengals (67.0)
For years, the Bengals had one of the league’s best lines, but this season they have fallen off. Heading into the season, they had two potential issues on paper at right tackle and center, and both have proven to be problems. RT Cedric Ogbuehi has allowed seven sacks and 32 total QB pressures across nine games, and C Russell Bodine has allowed more sacks than any other center in the league. Andrew Whitworth has remained one of the best tackles in the game, currently second in PFF’s rankings with an 89.8 grade, but he hasn’t had enough help.

The Andrew Luck hate is moronic and just seems fashionable because people resent he was pegged as the "Next XXX". Luck went to a shit team in shambles, tasked with picking up where Manning left off and given T.Y Hilton, a card board cut out defense and offensive lines, and a pat on the head.
Fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy, dinosaurs had little chance to survive as a species.
