All this is really hard.

Where would people have put Derek Anderson two years ago?

I think a guy that derserves much more credit than he is getting
is Rogers. Especially after I saw him absolutely crush a defensive
back after an interception. No really, no running game, a bad o-line,
and I thought the guy did a heck of a good job seeing that he was
running for his life or on his back most of the season.
Your argument doesn't hold much, the Falcons had the 2nd ranked rushing game in the league, but the Patriots had the 6th. The difference is marginal at best, only 10 yds/game more:
