Good Andy/Bad Andy

The QB rating doesn't so much say "good QB" as "good QB in a good offense". With good recievers, a good line... all that.

That the QB rating is flawed in itself is also often forgotten when comparing these numbers. Cam used to run for a ton of yards and TDs, but as far as I understand the QB rating formula doesn't account for that.

Which makes up for my initial point, proving that good Andy/bad Andy is just a myth using QB ratings numbers seems like a stretch.

While I agree that the QB rating is not the end-all-be-all when it comes to QB, I still think it's an effective tool to measure a QB's performance. Yes, there are other factors to consider - and running QBs are especially hurt by the QB rating - but it still is probably about as efficient a stat that can be created to determine QB play.

Think about it, when's the last time, if ever, you saw a QB have a remarkable game but his QB rating was low?
