Dalton has amassed 394 yards, 0 TDs, 4 INTs, 54.5% completion percentage. Yes, two of those INTs were tipped, but I still somewhat blame him for the second because he's always getting tipped at the line. He's missed some pretty open receivers (sometimes in favor of very covered receivers). It's also his choice of whether to go with the play that's called or change the play at the line.
QBs I think that could "succeed" according to the above would be Brees, Roethlisberger, Brady, Rodgers, Rivers, Ryan, Luck (if he weren't hurt), Wilson, Newton, Winston, Carr, maybe Mariota, maybe Prescott, maybe Alex Smith, maybe Sam Bradford.
If you disagree about these QBs being able to do so, that's your opinion but unless you can make a legitimate argument with proof that they couldn't, you won't change my mind.
Use whatever word you want I'm just figuring what you mean by a top 15 QB.
So more like top 10? Maybe's don't sound too confident.
We watched Wilson and Newton run for their lives all last year and it wasn't pretty both teams underachieved. Wilson has already been on the run this year.
Not trying to change your mind trying to figure out what you mean without splitting hairs or getting hung up on my word choices.
