It illustrates my point that you can't compare stats from the past 15 years of NFL with the period before because of rule changes that made offense more plentiful.
Look at:
Aikmans Career - 165 TD, 141 Int, Passer Rating of 81.6, 32,942 total yards.
Palmers Stats so far - 285 TD, 181 Int, Passer Rating of 88, 44,269 total yards.
Palmer looks like the HOF compared to Aikman...but it's a different era.
For comparison Dalton already has 141 TD and 86 Int with an 89.1 passer rating and 22,214 yards.
