I didn't say they should be worth the same. The qb rating difference should be to show how effective the two differ in producing points. In this scenario since they produce only 0.1 points difference in 100 drives they should differ by maybe 1 point in rating not 40 points.

Are you actually saying that a deep throw that sets up the ball at the one  shouldn't be counted as being instrumental in a team scoring the td. 100% of the drive that allowed the td to be scored would have been because of that deep throw.

Just because the ball was run in from the one doesn't mean they scored because some running back made a spectacular run from the one yard line. It was scored because of the deep throw setting them up at the  one yard line!!!

How you cannot grasp that is unbelievable.  Just go away and troll someone else. I cannot explain it any more clearly. If you cannot grasp the concept then go take logic classes.

I am not the troll. You clearly are, but I am entertained by teaching trolls a thing or two, hence why I am one of the only ones still responding to you.

The QB rating doesn't measure 'what ifs'. It doesn't measure where a pass was thrown or where it was caught. It measures a QBs performance over the course of a season in terms of measurable stats per attempts. The QB rating doesn't take into account what happens on the play AFTER a pass (unless it's another pass). It only takes into account the pass. 

BTW, I just checked. If a QB throws a 50 yard pass to the one and then throwns a 1 yard TD pass, he gets the exact same rating as a QB that throws a 50 yard TD pass.
