All-time QB Rating - normalized by year

[pansophy]

I saw someone make an attempt to generate an all-time QB Rating ranking taking into account the era that they played. I really liked the effort, and rather than poke holes in the method I thought I would give it my own shot. Poke away.

Here is what I did.
1. I scrapped all the passing data from 1932 to 2019 from https://www.pro-football-reference.com/
2. QBs had to make 50 attempts in the season to be included for the year.
3. I created a Z score passer rating for each player based on the season average passer rating and standard deviation. Z-scores are common ways to compare scores on different scales. Comparing QB ratings across eras, or even seasons, is like comparing scores on different scales.
4. I then calculated an average Z score for each player based on all the seasons they played and then converted that Z score back to a passer rating based on 2019 numbers. So what this does in effect is say, given how much better Staubach was from his peers based on each season he played, what would his passer rating look like to be equally better than his peers in 2019.
5. To make the final list the player had to have 500 lifetime attempts.

What this list can't do is adjust for the offensive system, some of which optimize for passer rating while others don't. That's always true though even when comparing players in the same year. Okay here is your top 100 all time.

Danny White at 25.

Really sad how forgotten he is outside of the Cowboys fandom.

True story -- But he followed Roger Staubach at #6! Cowboy fans are rough. Romo is at #13 and many people act like we should have dumped him early on.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

I believe in inclusivity on the forum.

The fact you’re using a Z-score automatically precludes kaiser from understanding this.

Not cool man.

I'm a jerk like that.

Tony Romo surpassed Troy? Bogus. Romo was garbage compared to Aikman

 

[Techsass]

Amazing how Jim McMahon ranks so far ahead of John Elway. I always thought McMahon was just one of those "OK" QBs, but still think Elway was special.

Uh Elway had his own area code. Dude was special

Then you truly don't understand QB play.

 

[pansophy]

Troy was on record saying Tony was better than him. Still we can't account for system differences (West coast, etc.). And I would imagine that different skill sets were more or less valuable during different eras, so being good in 1 era doesn't necessarily translate to being good in another.

But this is a reasonable correction of time for passer rating.

OK that explains Tony, but how could McNabb rate higher than Troy???!!!

West Coast Offense. Could argue how could he not have. It's no accident that Mahomes, Rogers, Young, and Montana are all in the top 5. The west coast offense revolves around optimizing passer rating.

not true..

 

[KJJ]

HOF QBs had poor passer ratings decades ago because the rules were far different. The rules have opened up the passing game. The rules have perfected QBs to where even average QBs have proficient passer ratings. Multiple WR sets along with slot receivers have opened up the passing game. The rules protecting QBs have opened up the passing game. It’s become more difficult to play pass defense due to all the rule changes. TEs are big WRs these days. It’s a different game today. The NFL is a passing league thanks to all the rule changes.

Any QB ranking that puts Billy Volek at #32 and Troy Aikman at #68 is garbage in my book.

 

[pansophy]

Any QB ranking that puts Billy Volek at #32 and Troy Aikman at #68 is garbage in my book.

One thing I found interesting is that all 10 QBs in the top 10 won at least 1 super bowl, and outside the top 10 it is his or miss, and mostly miss.

 

[Techsass]

Any QB ranking that puts Billy Volek at #32 and Troy Aikman at #68 is garbage in my book.

I think that's why we hear so many posters going ballistic when somebody starts slinging stats to prove who's better.

Don't get me wrong. I think this list is cool as could be.

Except #100 - 1st off a Philly Eagle; 68/90 TD/INT; 1 200yd game season (next highest 124yd game)

Really cool effort. Nice to see you explain your system, acknowledge its flaws, and simply post the results.

I hope you're prepared for the inevitable hate and the word "garbage" to be thrown around a lot. Dont get discouraged.

In case anyone is wondering, Trent Dilfer is the lowest ranking QB (rank: 283) to win a super bowl. Ryan Leaf is ranked last (331) followed by Josh Rosen (330). Remember players have to throw 50 Att in a season for the season to be eligible and 500 lifetime attempts to make the list.
