Dalton is impressive looking lately. 4 games in a row w/ passer rating well over 100 and carried team on his back today. Seriously looking "elite" to me, but what do I know, some of you'd rather have your pick of a dozen different guys over AD.

A playoff win helps too. If Andy plays like Brady or Rodgers for a season or two, then maybe he will have taken the jump to elite status.
Is he playing like an elite QB now? Yes. Has he earned elite status yet? Nope.
WUKG said Dalton is LOOKING elite, not that he IS elite.
I don't think anyone is ready to call Dalton an elite QB yet, but he's certainly playing like one, and if he keeps it up, he'll earn that status.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
