If only you could ignore everything but turnovers and tell the whole story though. Mariota had more than twice as many yards, much better comp %, good YPA, and he had 2 TDs. Bortles had an anemic 5.1 YPA, bad comp %, and 1 TD. Not to mention Mariota faced an elite defense and Bortles faced I think statistically the worst secondary (I don't think that's factored in to QBR though).

They were completely different, but equal QBR is defensible to me.

But he lost and got destroyed in the process. The biggest weighting factor of QBR is apparently the "clutch" factor. Blake wasn't amazing, but then again the weather was terrible. 

Traditional rating, yet again, shows a more accurate picture this week:

Mariota: 66.8
Bortles: 81.8

For what it's worth, they did get Kizer about right with a 3.4 lol
