I said that somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

And while it's not fair to compare the statistics of past quarterbacks to the ultra-protected/ultra-coddled quarterbacks of today, Plunkett had what was arguably the best offensive line in the history of professional football blocking for him ...... the Colts' offensive line is good this year, but they are not on par with the Raiders' offensive lines from anywhere between 1967 and 1983.
