Quote:I agree, the QBR is an absolutely useless metric. If it's not transparent about what goes into it it's just arbitrary IMO. Also (circa 2011) when it rates Tebow going 4/10 for 100 yards and 1 TD as a higher QBR than aaron rodgers going 26/39 for 400 yards and 2 TD's i can't take it seriously. I still believe Yards Per Attempt and Completion % are the best indicators (albeit not perfect) for a QB.


The guy in the article makes some okay points, but his reliance on the QBR and this quote:

"That's the bird's-eye view of Bortles' season: He was better, and better was not quite good."

leads me to not take him seriously since he's clearly never watched Bortles play...


I remember that! Also this season where Rodgers went 14-22 for 77 yards and received a higher QBR than Brady who had 20-33 300 yards passing and 4 TDs.
