Traditional QB rating of Shanahan coached QB's only means so much. With Shanahan you're going to have a lot of guys that are throwing under 60% due to the emphasis of trying to push the ball down field and with the current system a huge emphasis is placed on completion percentage. John Elway for example frequently was rated in the high 80's under Shanahan. Usually if the QB is rated in the high 80's that's a good sign in this system.
