Hmmm.

Carson Palmer's 2009-

16 games  60% completion %, 3100 yards, 21 TDs, 13 INTs, QB rating of 83

Ryan Fitzpatrick's last 16 game season (for that offensive juggernaut Buffalo, in 2012):

16 games  60% completion %, 3400 yards, 24 TDs, 16 INTs, QB rating of 83


Good analogy. 

BTW, Andy Dalton's rookie season looked like this: 

16 games, 58% completion %, 3400 yards, 20 TDs, 13 INTs, QB rating of 80
