Quick Regressions: QB Rate -> Games Above .500

Here's a quick regression which builds on the NFL is a Quarterback's League post from a week ago. The below chart shows Games above .500 in comparison to the starting quarterback's QB rating.


What you notice on the chart is pretty simple. If your Quarterback has a solid QB rating, than chances are your team is in the playoff hunt. What QB ratings miss of course are sacks. Aaron Rodgers is up there in QB rating but he has been sacked 37 times which has been a strong contributing factor to their 4-4 record. The player with the best QB rating on a team below .500 is Matt Hasselbeck who missed several games, all losses. Matt Ryan holds the lowest QB rating for a team above .500 and we will credit that to Michael Turner.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
