Dalton needs a good deal of talent around him to just be average or slightly above.

It would be nice to see what would happen if he consistently had 3-4 seconds to throw. There are "many other" QBs that can play just as well when everything else is going perfectly, but better than Andy when things aren't.
You guys are grossly overestimating the talent Dalton has had around him, and grossly overestimating the ability of other QBs to play with not a lot of talent arund them.
Drew Brees had three straight losing seasons from '14 through '16.
Aaron Rodgers was 10-12-1 as a starter over the last two seasons.
Dalton had a Pro Bowl season when the rushing game ranked 21st, Brandon LaFell was his #2 WR, Eifert only played 8 games, and Bodine and Ogbuehi were starting on his O-line. That is far from "everything going perfectly".
I'd like to see the list of "many" other QBs who perform better than Dalton with less talent.
