Props shake, this is really cool information.
What I'm seeing from this is that all of these guys, and probably most QBs in the NFL, are good QBs. You don't make it to the NFL if you aren't a good QB.
I believe the difference is how guys perform in big games.
It would be interesting to create a statistic that measures non pressure game vs the most pressure 'biggest game on your schedule' type of game. I wonder how many of these 'big moment' games each QB had higher QBRs for... My guess is the story would be a bit different. Big Ben and Flacco may have higher QBR games in these situations while Dalton and Palmer would have lower.
It would be a smaller sample size, but QBR in playoff games may be a better indicator. Dalton does have a few playoff games under his belt for comparison.
