Anyway I’m not going to keep going around in circles on this. Except for his Oline the last couple years I’ll just have to agree to disagree with anyone that doesn’t think Dalton has had a pretty good supporting cast around him much of his career.

How many teams have more than one “great” WR?
Sanu was solid, imo.
Well a lot of teams have good #2 receivers. Sanu cant even have a career year with Matt Ryan and their system when they pass the ball a lot more often than we do.

The list that Shake provided shows that Dalton hasn't had that much around him his whole career. Hes been sacked 40+ times 3 out of the last 6 years, hes had no run game pretty much his whole career and hes only had a good receiving core 2 years.

Dalton only had 1 Seasons when both were healthy for the majority of it I believe.
And they weren't very productive till their 3rd years

Marvin Jones was TD machine (scored 10) his 2nd season.

Boomer...League MVP...4 X top 5 in passer rating....5 X top 5 in td passes.....4 X top 5 passing yds
Anderson...League MVP...4 X NUMBER ONE in passer rating (9 X top 10)....2 X NUMBER ONE passing yards (7 X top 10)...6 X top 10 passing tds
Gotta rep that.....why Ken Anderson isn't in the Hall is beyond me. Andy will never hit the kind of numbers you illustrate here.

Absolutely agree. If these two step up, along with Green having another good year, Dalton could very well get back to 2015 level.....provided Pollack gets the line up to snuff as the other poster noted.

You're being intentionally obtuse here. They barely played and were ineffective as rookies. Binns started more games than either of them. MLJ also missed an entire year due to injury. So we really had him for 2 years. We had Sanu for 3 years, but AJ Green missed significant time in one of those, which made Sanu our top receiver for several games.
So again, what Joelist said was correct. If you want to stretch it, you could include 2014 with 12 games of Green, 16 games of Sanu, and 0 games of MLJ or Eifert. Then you could say 3 years. It'd still only be 3 years out of 7.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

Steve Young is the only QB who has led the league in passer rating more times than Anderson's 4.

No offenes, but you do realize you're supposed to hit the space bar after punctuation.

Wow, that's really impressive. Kenny deserves a bust in Canton. I hope we see it happen someday.

I’m hoping Kenny gets to see his bust in Canton.
