What stats do you use to judge the quarterbacks of the nfl

Thats true.  Tds are more valuable the less interceptions you have.  So I think those two go together.
 

I don't think they are that closely related.   For instance:  Increasing attempts can possibly increase yards.  Decreasing attempts can possibly increase completion percentage.  You can possibly have the best YPA and score no points.  There is nothing that you can manipulate to statistically increase TDs.  A gunslinger isn't a gunslinger because he throws a bunch of interceptions.  He's a gunslinger when he can throw a lot of touchdowns.  Increasing interceptions does not necessarily increase TDs.  You never see a QB who throws 35 TDs but 55 INTs, because TDs don't get much easier by adding attempts.  Either you are good at it or you are not. 

 

I believer when you throw TDs, the rest of the stats eventually fall in place.
