Funny thing about the title. I once met Russell's cousin Anthony. Huge Hawks fan!! Small world, and many Anthony's seem to REALLY love the guy. :mrgreen:

What I'm trying to say is if you are evaluating how safe a QB is with the ball, interceptable passes is a more wholistic metric for judging that trait. I'd argue passer rating is a "worthless" statistic by your philosophy as it takes into account about as many different stats as interceptable passes.

In that case would you believe Matt Ryan's TD/INT ratio accurately reflected how well he played this year given eight of those INTs were not his fault? Source: http://www.espn.com/nfl/insider/story/_ ... ball-focus

I'm a Hawks fan too but I love the analysis of the game and learning about the different stats we can use to evaluate players so yes all the stats you listed are valuable to me. I did post a link to the PFF stat that had him at 21st in the league in turnover worthy throws, which is a bit worrisome IMO but looking at his body of work over six years, I'm confident it was an aberration he will bounce back from, especially with better protection.
