i wouldnt call it necessarily padding stats
the reason people get hype about him is because he makes at least 1 insane throw every single week (by insane i dont mean poor decision, i mean very few people in the league could make that throw and it requires ridiculous arm strength, timing and precision)
but yeah i wouldnt put him with the others because he's been surrounded by weapons and has even had some decent OL at times
but has not been able to get over the chargers never-ending cursed inability to get out of their own way
