  • A few things,

    1, I want to say I think this is really good, and for the most part I like your method

    2, my only real complaint is that I don’t agree with your assessment of QB performance under pressure. I’m not sure if this kind of metric can accurately be attributed to QB performance in an advanced statistic, because it ignores so much context. For example, Tua (as an example because I watch him the most) is under pressure less often many other QBs because the offense is designed around several things: speed, poor pass protection, and his ability to go through reads incredibly fast. So yes, Tua is under pressure less often than other QBs, but he doesn’t have more time to make decisions than many other QBs. Seems counter-intuitive to punish someone in this metric for things like that, I’m sure other QBs have situations that also go against the logic you used the for Pressure % metric

    3, I’d like to see drops considered in this. I get that it would be difficult because of the subjectivity in what constitutes a drop, and what kind of stats are left on the field as a result of the drop, but I still think that’s a pretty significant component when grading QBs that gets left out of other advanced metrics as well. But again, I get that this might be too messy to implement
