What can we use to to measure AD?
I like PFR's advanced passing metrics personally. Since you brought up passer rating, let's look at their advanced passer rating index which compares player performance for that season to league averages over the surrounding three year spans (ie, his 2015 season is compared to all other QBs from 2014 to 2016). A score of 100 represents "average", and Andy measures a 102 - which by definition makes him slightly above average. He also rates above average for his career in completion %, TD %, and yards per attempt as well.
And before someone tries to move the goalposts here, none of this is to say Andy's a great QB for his career or anything, but he is most certainly not a "below average QB" as you've claimed. It's just the same type of overstated hyperbole that's thrown all over these boards.
