Top to bottom the league was pretty damn average. The fact that no more than 3 or 4 guys separated themselves doesn't mean the rest of the league was better.

FWIW, only 3 of the Top 50 Passer Rating seasons occurred during the 70s, and none of the top 32. I'm not going to try to QB rating an end all, be all, but it certainly doesn't help your argument.

Considering what teams asked of QBs in the 1970s, I have a hard time crowning most of the league as elite.

ETA: only 3 of the Top 100 Passer Rating seasons occurred during the 70s. The 4th 1970s QB doesn't appear again until #136 - Ken Anderson in 1974.
