Week 2 Total QBR

[bobflipaburger]

I really like the idea of an more advanced metric to determine quarterback efficiency. It seems to have its flaws, but for the most part its seems to get it right.

This week the young QBs dominated, while the elite kind of struggled. A bit of an odd week. I figured Kolb had a decent game, but he had one of the worst games. That defense must have played even better than I thought.

1 Andrew Luck 95.7
2 Ben Roethlisberger 93.4

And it continues... Manning 3 INTs in the 1st quarter.

I agree. I just wish there was more information on how it is compiled.

You would need to ask Trent Dilfer, QBR actually makes it seem like he was relevant LOL

Some of us wish it was a bit more simple. Wikipedia explains the qb rating very well. Here's the simple version:

Divide a quarterback's completed passes by pass attempts.

1. Subtract 0.3.
2. Divide by 0.2 and record the total. The sum cannot be greater than 2.375 or less than zero.
3. Divide passing yards by pass attempts.
4. Subtract 3.
5. Divide by 4 and record the total. The sum cannot be greater than 2.375 or less than zero.
6. Divide touchdown passes by pass attempts.
7. Divide by 0.05 and record the total. The sum cannot be greater than 2.375 or less than zero.
8. Divide interceptions by pass attempts.
9. Subtract that number from 0.095.
10. Divide that product by 0.04 and record the total. The sum cannot be greater than 2.375 or less than zero.
11. Add the four totals you recorded.
12. Multiply that total by 100.
13. Divide by 6.
14. The final number is your quarterback rating.

Probably developed by the IRS.

Good to see Locker dominating like he did in college lol.
