Dalton doesn't need more help than most other QBs.
There are maybe 7 or 8 QBs who have proven they will be consistently better than Dalton. Those QBs have been spread out over the last 18 years. That means one every 3 years or so with probably a dozen teams looking for a QB every year. The odds of finding one of those guys are pretty slim. I think we are more likely to build a championship team around Dalton.
And even the best QBs struggle without talent around them. Aaron Rodgers is 10-12-1 over the last two seasons. Drew Brees had a losing record for 3 straight years ('14-'16). Before going 12-4 this year Philip Rivers had a losing record over the previous 8 seasons (60-68).
