Chip Kelly says yes.

“Tony has been an elite quarterback for a long time,” Kelly said during a Wednesday conference call. “He’s as good as anybody playing right now. I’ve always been a big fan of Tony and just how he plays the game at quarterback. He has an unbelievable understanding of what they’re doing. He gets them always into the right play, always in the right protection and he can make all the throws. He’s playing as good as any quarterback in the National Football League.”
