I like the TQBR (it confirms many of my personal QB rankings via observation).
Its not perfect but its a clear upgrade and more meaningful stat the current QBR(passer rating).

But, I have a question about sacks.
It seems that sacks are always counted against the QB.
But, if so that seems wrong headed imo.
Sure some sacks are the QBs fault but some sacks are clearly the fault of the pass protection and shouldn't count against the QB.

I think the TQBR should have component stats that create/ help them arrive at the TQBR.

I.E.-

o number of sacks due to QB fault vs. pass protection

o number of 'clutch' drives

o how much of a given QBs stats: yards, TDs etc are meaningful vs. garbage time

etc.
