Burrow Offensive Rookie of the Year?

It's the best stat we have for QBs, but I think it favors game managers a little too much.  (The other being I wish we had a weighted/scaled version so we could instantly find out how much above/below average they were while also being able to easily compare different years/eras against each other like you can with OPS+ and ERA+ in baseball.)

QB rating does favor efficiency and game management.  It wouldn't calculate quickly and be able to be immediately presented, but QB performance should account for accuracy, % of snaps under duress, and air yards traveled by the ball.  For years when he had Bell, Piggy would get crazy YPA because of a check down that went 20 yards.  

Way too many things to consider, but if you go by QB rating alone, you will likely always reward a game manager over a guy that if making all kinds of plays on a lesser team.  Like, I could imagine Archie Manning never would have had a strong QB rating, but was a heck of a QB on a poor team.
