All 32 NFL quarterbacks (including Russell Wilson) ranked by Total QBR

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson has thrown 19 touchdown passes this season, tied for third-most in the NFL.

Wilson’s passer rating (104.3) also ranks third in the league, but his QBR rating on ESPN (50.6) ranks 19th this season (13th-lowest in the NFL).

Here is part of ESPN’s explanation for its Total QBR rating, courtesy of Sharon Katz and Brian Burke:

ESPN’s Total Quarterback Rating (Total QBR), which was released in 2011, has never claimed to be perfect, but unlike other measures of quarterback performance, it incorporates all of a quarterback’s contributions to winning, including how he impacts the game on passes, rushes, turnovers and penalties. Also, since QBR is built from the play level, it accounts for a team’s level of success or failure on every play to provide the proper context and then allocates credit to the quarterback and his teammate to produce a clearer measure of quarterback efficiency.

So, with that context in mind, here’s a look at the QBR ratings for all 32 NFL quarterbacks going into Week 12 of the 2023 season.
