The short of it is, if you are a franchise with passing stats that have stood for 20+ years there is a good chance you've been in QB hell for a long time. For example, the Chicago Bears still have single season passing records in yards and TDs held by Erik Kramer from 1995. That's brutal.
For better context it would be interesting to compare Anderson's MVP season to the last 5 MVP seasons and see how they compare. In that context Dalton's number will not look so good.
