There is a subjective "clutch" component to QBR. Subjectivity isn't statistics.
Somebody, somewhere decides how clutch a play is. Is a 60 yard TD pass in the first quarter less clutch than a 60 yard TD pass in the 4th quarter? Without the TD in the 1st, would the TD in the 4th be garbage time? NOBODY KNOWS!!!
Again, it's personal preference. I don't like it. I don't think it is the best metric to judge NFL QBs by.
If you can explain how the final number is achieved, I think you would be one of 4 people on the planet who could.
Gonna stick with Black Box.
