No, the same as Tommy Frazier was never really a QB at Nebraska....Hate that terrible rating system...Do the same stats with just Passer Rating where it does not take running the ball in to effect and takes the skill of a QB throwing the ball and see where these players stand at that point...Not trying to boast Dalton, just trying to make it a fair playing level for any "Quarterback"...Just my opinion
1. I think you may have quoted the wrong guy.
2. As much as I agree that passer rating > ESPN's made up stat, how on earth can you NOT look at a QB's ability running as well as throwing? That's sort of crazy to completely disregard an entire facet of the game.
I have this strange feeling that running the ball would be a super important QB stat if our guy happened to be better at it. Let's call it a hunch.
