I said it back on :hamster:, cats don't like QBR because it's an ESPN thing and it's cool to hate ESPN. This is coming from someone who hates ESPN. If it was some random football website's stat it'd be cool to the same cats trying to downplay it.

And I see those same kind of statistical anomalies, especially when judging one game or a small sample set in general, with the passer rating stat all the time.

Andrew Luck, Aaron Rodgers, Ben Rothlisberger and Tony Romo are all mobile QBs who scramble TO THROW.. They move around while looking down the field to throw the ball.

Andrew Luck is the total package in my opinion.

QBs that have that great running ability depend on it too much when the pocket breaks down and they run to run. Cam and Mike Vick be cuttin it back inside takin punishment.

So one bad example disproves that it's much more accurate than Regular QB rating? How many times has Qb ranking numbers been deceiving and borderline almost lying when used to compare QB's?






Here's the Top 10 NFL QB's measured by traditional QB rating

1 Alex Smith SF QB 94 137 68.6 27.4 1,087 7.9
2 Matt Ryan ATL QB 136 199 68.3 39.8 1,507 7.6
3 Tom Brady NE QB 124 185 67.0 37.0 1,450 7.8
4 Peyton Manning DEN QB 130 197 66.0 39.4 1,507 7.6
5 Robert Griffin III WAS QB 96 139 69.1 27.8 1,161 8.4
6 Ben Roethlisberger PIT QB 103 157 65.6 39.2 1,111
7 Matt Schaub HOU QB 97 152 63.8 30.4 1,162 7.6
8 Aaron Rodgers GB QB 130 189 68.8 37.8 1,307 6.9
9 Eli Manning NYG QB 128 197 65.0 39.4 1,579 8.0 0
10 Christian Ponder


RG3 number 5 overall? :usure:

Which one looks more accurate?


Alex Smith is still number 1 in both :beli:

I'd take the traditional QB rating thank you. At least this one doesnt have Jake Locker in the top 10 :beli:. And your only argument for the QBR is because it has Luck as 3 and RGIII isnt on it while the traditional rating doesnt have Luck and RGIII is 5?... This was basically a covert Andrew Luck >>>>RGIII thread then :upsetfavre:
