Tom Brady was 17th in 2013 with 4300 yards 60.5% completion 25 TDs and 11 INTs.

There are a lot more examples if I could use QBs that didn't play a full 16 games, and I don't feel like going back further than a few years.
Rivers- 18 ints
Smith- 6 ints
Check
Brady- 4343 yds on 628 att- 6.92 ypa
Kaep- 3197 yds on 416 att- 7.69 ypa

Total yards or total TDs doesn't mean you're a better QB or had a better year. How efficient you are with all your passes; comp %, ypa, TD % and INT % tells how good you are.
Question: Is Andy Dalton, at the very least, equaling his best stretch of quarterbacking? Answer: Yes
And how does that correlate to passer rating? He's #2 in the NFL right now. That's not magic or luck, it's because his comp %, ypa, TD % and INT % are ridick so far.
I rest my case. Thank you.
