Passer Rating: N/A

Data Source and Methodology

All calculations are based on the standard NFL passer rating formula. For more information, refer to the official NFL website. All calculations are strictly based on the formulas and data provided by this source.

The Formula Explained

The NFL passer rating formula is calculated as follows:

\[ \text{Passer Rating} = \left( \frac{(\text{Comp} - 0.3) \times 5 + (\text{Yards}/\text{Att} - 3) \times 0.25 + (\text{TD}/\text{Att}) \times 20 + 2.375 - (\text{Int}/\text{Att} \times 25)}{6} \right) \times 100 \]

Glossary of Variables

  • Completions (Comp): Number of passes completed.
  • Attempts (Att): Total number of pass attempts.
  • Passing Yards (Yards): Total yards gained through passing.
  • Touchdowns (TD): Number of passing touchdowns.
  • Interceptions (Int): Number of interceptions thrown.

How It Works: A Step-by-Step Example

Suppose a quarterback completes 30 of 40 attempts for 350 yards, with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception. Using the formula, the passer rating is calculated as follows:

\((\frac{(30/40 - 0.3) \times 5 + (350/40 - 3) \times 0.25 + (3/40) \times 20 + 2.375 - (1/40 \times 25)}{6}) \times 100 = 110.4\)
