I dont have an opinion yet but putting points on the board is the name of the game.

Wentz is doing better in the PFF rating. Dak is doing better in the ESPN QBR rating and now this measure.

PFF rating is a guy looking at a play and scoring it between -3 and 3 based on how he feels a player performed. It's exactly like the psychological tests where they as how it makes you feel with 6 different outcomes from strongly disagree to strongly agree.

The other two are based on actual performance adjusted for situations. So a 4 yard run in the red zone is worth a lot more one at midfield for example.

Even in the PFF measure, I think Dak is the #4 rated QB now. So if you were to look at all the ratings, he still comes out ahead.

I always wonder about the value of PFF. How adept is it at extrapolating future performance compared to other measures?

Yes, but his passes have more zip on them, which causes air displacement that leads to hurricanes. He also is spreading germs through the air by refusing to go to the ground easily therefore causing defenders to hit him hard, spraying sweat and exhalation everywhere. I wouldn't be surprised if he's the actual reason the Zika virus is spreading.

Dak throws the ball with just the right amount of velocity, does not sweat because he's so cool and calm in the pocket and slides at the end of his runs, therefore his EPA rating is better.

Blah, blah, stats and conjecture. What I want to see is some well placed deep balls dropping into the out-stretched hands of our receivers. Once he starts doing that the opposing defenses will be really screwed.
