He has the third highest INT% in the league, behind only Zach Wilson and Trevor Lawrence. He’s also taken a large amount of sacks.
The concept behind it is that when a QB throws, they use a finite resource in a down. There is data to suggest that sacks and pressures may be more QB driven than originally thought (time to throw has a correlation to pressure %) , so the rating takes into account sacks as well. So, it penalizes negative uses of a passing down and gives a positive to effective uses of a passing down.
So you think Dalton's had a better season so far? Because that's what the QBR is saying.
