His rating was 127.4 to be exact...but I never really understood how this number is derived, I thought it would be higher than that though...what more do you have to do to get a perfect QB rating, he completed over 80% of his passes for crying out loud

A few more TD passes and his rating would have been very close to perfect

I still don't understand the formula that is used to reach this number...Just because a QB doesn't have a bunch of TDs doesn't mean that he is less effective, the RB could just be punching it in all day while the QB is doing must of the work to get there...but anyway does anyone know where to find the formula that they use?

Ask and you shall receive:

QB Rating = (a + b + c + d) / .06

a = (((Comp/Att) * 100) -30) / 20
b = ((TDs/Att) * 100) / 5
c = (9.5 - ((Int/Att) * 100)) / 4
d = ((Yards/Att) - 3) / 4

a, b, c and d can not be greater than 2.375 or less than zero.
