If an NFL QB is on their way to becoming 'elite' - might they actually be elite before officially being recognized as such? And if some who are generally recognized as 'elite', such as Joe Flacco and Andrew Luck, start regularly performing below average - were they 'elite' to begin with?
If a QB who has been unquestionably 'elite' in the past, such as Peyton Manning, plays like he has this past season, when a team plans on facing them, are they planning on facing an 'elite' QB?
Joe Flacco has never been "elite". Not even close. The last few years, it as a 4 man party...Rodgers, Brady, Manning, and Brees. Now, I'd only put Rodgers and Brady there, but if Dalton keeps playing at this level, eventually you have to recognize it. At first it was a fluke, then it was a trend....hopefully, this becomes just who he is.
