Learn to recognize the difference between simple typos and spelling issues. When you have mastered that level of complexity feel free to get back to me.

Rodgers and Wilson both took a tumble in the rankings after last night's performances, but they are still both currently in the top 5 of all-time for career postseason passer ratings (minimum 150 pass attempts). Wilson doesn't yet have the requisite minimum regular season attempts (1252 vs 1500), but if he did he would be ranked 2nd of all time.
While these shouldn't be the only stats considered, he hardly strikes me as a quarterback who only wins game because of his supporting cast.
I think the sample size for him is so low that we can't look at post season qb rating, etc. In his three regular seasons he is only completing 63% of his passes, has a high sack percentage, and a rating of 98(95 this season, the lowest of his career). Throw in 24 TD's and about 9 picks per year and These aren't bad, but they are middle of the pack.
1) Decent point, but 7 games isn't exactly a small sample for playoff games. More than Romo, Ryan, Kaepernick, and about 75% of active starting QBs. 7 games against top competition is hard to fake.
2) You brought up completion percentage, interception percentage and sack percentage, but they would all factor into his career passer rating, which is absolutely NOT middle of the pack. It is exceptional. That stat, however, does not include rushing yards, which is another category where Russell is amongst the best in the league.
I'm not saying his ratings will be as high at the end of his career as they are now, but based on his first 3 seasons you cannot call him a middle of the pack quarterback and retain any credibility.
Good point on his running ability, however I think his tendency to do that leads to his higher sack percentage.
His QB rating this season ranked 12th in the NFL. Of all of the 25 or so QB's that started consistently all year, he is middle of the pack. Romo at 82.7 and Rodgers at 82.6 were in a league of their own, with Wilson at 62.4 for reference.
If you are trying to avoid small sample sizes, why would you elect to speak to this season's rating instead of the more inclusive career ratings?

"Dial it up" knows the formula. He has said so on another thread and often belittled others who could not locate said formula.
Of course, I did read what you posted. It's nice to see you've begun to come around to the truth and finally abandoned some of the lies you staunchly defended earlier.
You still, however, continue to claim that the main ingredients aren't a secret. Would you mind telling us what they are and linking to a definitive source. Thanks.
( At this point you can expect a few well chosen insults relating to my inability to successfully search for these "well known" ingredients.)
That wasn't me. It was one of my groupies. Of course I know that the QBR has a secret formula and that it is calculated very differently than passer rating. No one outside of a tiny group if ESPN employees has any idea of how it is determined.

(At this point you can expect anything other than: "oops my bad, you were right." Instead look for something along the lines of "ESPN isn't a credible enough source for espns own statistic").
Bump for my man Star
I think we ought to dial back every win in the NFL that is due to luck. Lets start with GB being lucky that Bryant didn't make that catch, so should have been Dallas in this gam, no wait, should have been Detroit because Dallas got lucky with the no call, so whats next? If we start this then we should get to a super bowl with no teams. Lucky, lucky, lucky, ... no such thing as luck at this level. Some people make plays and others don't. The only thing that may be lucky is the coin toss, but who knows, they probably have an analysis for this and a plan to call something specific under certain circumstances. Every team in the NFL makes their luck.

Are you still claiming that you have the formula?

Thanks for the link. I am curious as to what phrase you used that returned that link in 1 second as the top choice.
Of course I read it before I posted previously. Thus my question. You have claimed to know the formula, but it us not contained in that story. That is what I originally asked for in the other thread. I'm still looking.

I don't know why you continue to dodge the question. Or maybe I do. Let's agree that you were wrong when you said you had the formula and also when you described your Googling experience
Fair enough.

Agreed, but I think QB rating more closely measures the effectiveness of a quarterback than a super bowl.
What exactly is the formula used to determine QBR?

I just found it. I timed how long it took: 1 minute, 17 seconds.
You can do this, I believe in you.

Here are quotes from the earlier thread. You said you had found the formula. But you didn't.
Then you dodge the question I asked above about your Google search. The only conclusion is that you exaggerated that, too.
Do you wonder why so many here don't like you? You have a lot to offer, but you don't own your mistakes. No one is perfect. Man up and earn some respect.
