Goff does have probably the best perfect rating for the regular season ever though against the Vikings. He also has one of the few 0 passer ratings. Man is a god sometimes and a pedestrian others.
the limit on minimum attempts for a game to count in the passer ratings recordbooks is 20 attempts, and Goff went 18/18 so even if he had a perfect passer rating it still wouldn't have counted.
Even if it did net him a perfect rating, it wouldn't appear on Alex's chart because he only threw 18 attempts (which I think is kind of silly because the minimum attempts per game required to place in rate metrics is 14, not 20).

Steve Tensi I looked at Steve Tensi's Wikipedia page for his two 0.0 official passer ratings within the same season. There was no mention of them. What I did find was that after two years and 52 pass attempts in the AFL after being a 4th round pick (16th round NFL), this remarkable trade happened: "On August 15, 1967, shortly before the 1967 season, new coach and general manager Lou Saban traded Denver's #1 draft picks in the 1968 and 1969 common AFL-NFL draft for Tensi. These proved to be valuable picks for San Diego, becoming the #4 and #9 overall selections respectively."
1967 was his season of two 0.0 official passer rating games. His first had an uncapped rating of -3.125, which is a candidate for the highest uncapped rating for an official 0.0 game. That line was 6/20 for 55 yards with 2 INT. Tensi's second game had a -21.023 uncapped rating, which is more like it (3 INT in 22 attempts being the main difference).
Oof, I was at that Broncos-Chiefs game in 2015. After Manning went 5-20 for 35 yards and 4 INTs, Brock Osweiler came in and went 14-24 for 146 with one TD and another pick. Also, they combined for 5 sacks. Miserable, miserable game.

In a slightly different universe, we'd be talking about Dan Pastorini's 9 INT game every time a QB throws 5 or 6. He should thank his lucky stars that he ended up with only 4 in that game.
Dan Pastorini was part of what was seen as the great QB draft (before the 84 draft). 1st Plunkett, 2nd Archie Manning, and 3rd Pastorini. People either dont know or forget Pastorini was a pro bowl QB the raider even traded stabler for him. Just for him to break his leg and back up the former 1st round pick of the same draft Jim plunkett takes and wins them the Super Bowl. Poor Pastorini 😂😂😂
I was a huge Earl Campbell fan in my youth. In wondering how my beloved Earl Campbell could never beat those Steelers, I apparently, I blocked out how awful Dan Pastorini actually was. The 1970's look pretty wild. Some quarterbacks - Terry Bradshaw included - just liked slinging the ball around without any care.
It's not actually all THAT surprising that the guys with the most negative-rating games were pretty good-- if you're not, on the whole, pretty good, you just aren't going to get that long a leash. Pastorini famously got benched for Jim Plunkett in the 1980 season, for example, and that was pretty much the end of him as a credible NFL talent.
But what is the lowest rating that resulted in a win? Probably from defensive scores and running to a field goal, but still a funny thought. My guess is next video will create a new metric that will eliminate the rating bounds and also include running performance.
In 2010, Todd Collins went 6/16 for 32 yards and 4 INTs in a 23-6 win over the Panthers. This resulted in a capped passer rating of 6.2. Might not be the lowest but it’s definitely a contender
@@dfp_01I looked at that one and it's about a -1. I found a worse one, Norm Snead on November 14, 1976. 14 attempts, 2 picks, 3 completions for 26 yards and of course 0 TD yields a -6.24 true QBR if I mathed right
seeing terry bradshow on this list really gives me more perspective on the "That's how much more dire this could have been had Bradshaw slipped up even once. He didn’t." line from Section 1
I remember when you covered that Kim McQuilken disasterpiece in the Falcons series. No passing performance has filled me with more horror than that one.
He had only 12 attempts in his only 0.0 rated game (week 17 of that 2006 Super Bowl season). He was 2 of 12 for 33 yards and 3 INTs. His uncapped passer rating was -76.7. Grossman's worst game with 20+ attempts had an official rating of 10.2.
I think the Basement is pretty obvious why the NFL doesn't want that metric out there in the world. But the literal upper bounds of the QB metric doesn't make any sense. Why not celebrate a QB who has an absolute romp of a game.
Really would be cool to see one of these videos focus specifically on Super Bowl performances. I think the changed QBR statistics could showcase a new angle on how the NFC’s 15+ year straight Super Bowl wins hapoened.
When all the names are shown on the complete graph, I noticed the slight upward trend over time. It looks like NFL quarterbacks overall are slowly increasing in quality. Possibly what he was referring to at the end of the video when he said there was more to explore in another video.
I’m actually sort of surprised there isn’t a bigger increase in the passer rating over the years. There seems to be some increase for sure, but I’d expect more since the standards for passer efficiency are much much higher today. Our friend Dan Pastorini actually made the Pro Bowl one year with more picks than TDs. Generally in the 70s, if you had more TDs than INTs and had a completion percentage above 50, you were a pretty good QB. Obviously you wouldn’t even make the roster with those stats today.
You're being very generous, but I don't think I could chuck the ball to the popcorn vendor even once, let alone on every snap. I'd stick to spiking it I think. 😅
I remember an episode of Sunday NFL Countdown back in ESPN's glory days where Chris Berman demonstrated passer rating by saying something to the effect of "I could throw a quick five-yard out to Sterling then throw the next 19 passes off the center's butt and I'd still have a better passer rating than so-and-so has this season." I forget who so-and-so was, but notwithstanding the penalties for ineligible receiver in Berman's example, that would indeed produce a passer rating just north of 40.
I wouldn't mind an addendum to this about the lowest QB rating in a game without any minimum qualifier. Feels like there would be some gems there. After all, the true worst games ever QBed would see them benched before they get 20 attempts.

A few fun facts about Bradshaw's five stinkers: [1] The Steelers actually won two of those games, and would have won three had the '71 Bears not managed to score two TDs in the final 4 minutes to squeak by 17-15. [2] In the one game where the opposing QB performed worse than Bradshaw, the Steelers still lost (just 11 attempts kept the Vikings' Bob Lee off the chart). [3] His worst game (-29.2 against Green Bay in 1970) was inflated by an 87 yard TD pass. If that had fallen incomplete his unbounded rating would have been -68.1 [4] Only one of those games - a 7-6 win against the Bengals - was during one of their Super Bowl years (1978).
How bad would/could it get if you accounted for sacks and/or fumbles as part of the passer rating formula? After all, a lost strip-sack is roughly as awful as an interception.
Big take away is that inorder to be allowed to have a really bad game is that you have to have been or be really good. Otherwise the coaches will pull you from it.
Next you should do this but adjust for the average passer rating for the year; passer rating was originally made so that a 66.7 rating would be considered average, but nowadays that rating would be terrible.
Passer rating is fine as long as you have a reasonable minimum threshold of games played. If you stack rank qbs by rating it’s very similar to rankings by more “advanced” metrics used now.
All composite metrics are tweaked so that the players that the person making it think is good look good and the players they think are bad look bad. Pass rating guy probably liked Brett Favre or some other QB that threw a lot of INT but also a lot of yards and TD.
I always laugh a little bit when the formula gives someone a "perfect rating". The only way to get a TRULY perfect rating is if every pass thrown is completed, and completed for a touchdown. Anything less is NOT perfect.
I like that in this series, you've actually shown and demonstrated WHY there are artificial boundries for the Passer Rating stat. Take the Staubach game... two of the interceptions were because the RECEIVER dropped/batted the ball and a defender happened to come down with it. How is that the fault of the passer or of the pass? I argue that it's simply unfair to nail the passer for a receiver's poor performance or because of an act of chaos. On the flip side, when Santorini threw a screen pass that got tackled for a 5 yard loss... what would have happened if the receiver had slipped the tackle and taken it to the house? Well, then Santorini would get credit for a 60+ yards passing and a touchdown, when, again, his actual pass had NOTHING to do with the outcome of the play. It would be the runner's great move or a defender's poor tackle that made the play what it was. Why should the QB get credit for a touchdown pass? I think the limits put on the Passer Rating are an effort to reign in some of the nonsense that is the other passing stats. It's all imperfect, and the current calculation takes that into account. If you remove the barriers, the calculation would in many cases resemble GIGO (Garbage In, Garbage Out).
every other qb thats playing a reasonably normal game gets dinged for picks that arent their fault too, why should those who have otherwise been awful enough to be that low not get dinged? that makes no sense...you cant pick and choose the instances where picks that arent the QB's fault get properly incorporated into the formula and other instances of picks that arent the QB's fault dont get properly incorporated...why does an nba player who creates an open look for a teammate get credited with an assist just because his teammate happened to make the shot, whereas another instance of a player demonstrating the same exact skills and abilities in generating an open look for a teammate doesnt get an assist if their teammate happened to miss their open shot? everyone knows not all INTs are the fault of the QB, but that's way too slippery a slope to throw a bone to those who stunk the rest of the game that those who didnt dont get to receive. there's no way a formula can know who was at fault for an INT, and in the same way that its possible that someone threw a bunch of picks in which some werent his fault, its also possible that they all could have indeed been the QB's fault. you cant have a formula that assumes things one way or another
@@SecretBaseSBN That's exactly my point. Many stats don't accurately reflect the true effect of an athletic performance, in football or in other sports, so why should the passer rating be "perfected" when the info going into it is suspect? The boundries in place are an effort to reign in the chaos and restore some semblance of sanity to statistical analysis. Personally, I feel that the official scorer of football games should have some measure of judgment when it comes to INTs or even TD passes, similarly how a baseball scorer can decide between a hit or an error or a fielder's choice. If that were the case, then there would be less of a need for the boundries on Passer Rating.
just because passer rating is by nooooo means perfect even without the artificial boundaries, that doesnt mean they should just make it worse and be deceitful for no reason (and no, baselessly assuming all picks from low-pick games were earned while baselessly assuming not all picks from high-pick games were earned, which is in a way exactly what the formula does, is not a valid reason) in the same way that someone could have a game with 4 or 5 picks in which 1 or 2 werent their fault, someone could have a game with 4 or 5 picks in which all of 'em were indeed their fault in the same way that someone could have a game with 1 pick in which their lone pick wasnt their fault, someone could have a game with 1 pick in which the lone pick was their fault. yet the player with 4 or 5 picks in which 1 wasnt their fault is granted a mercy that the player who throws 1 pick in which the 1 wasnt their fault is not granted again, removing the boundaries would not be some magical answer that would make the passer rating formula some perfect be-all and end-all way to assess QB play, but it would sure as hell mitigate some issues, give it a hell of an improvement, remove the disingenuousness, and make it an even playing field
I knew as soon as the premise was explained that Manning was going to have the highest delta. He's had some of the worst games of all time despite his greatness.
Noticed by his metric the highest rated game ever was played by Lamar Jackson. I think that was the 442 passing yards 4 TDs, 86% completion with 62 on the ground for 2 more TDs.

@@daleftuprightatsoldierfieldgood pull
Probably a Bradshaw or Tarketon game. Neither are terrible quarterbacks, but their defenses did most of the work
@@dfp_01I looked at that one and it's about a -1. I found a worse one, Norm Snead on November 14, 1976. 14 attempts, 2 picks, 3 completions for 26 yards and of course 0 TD yields a -6.24 true QBR if I mathed right
seeing terry bradshow on this list really gives me more perspective on the "That's how much more dire this could have been had Bradshaw slipped up even once. He didn’t." line from Section 1
Gotta add Jared Goff from the other night onto this list!
I remember when you covered that Kim McQuilken disasterpiece in the Falcons series. No passing performance has filled me with more horror than that one.
Didnt Rex Grossman have a passer rating of 0 at least once? That season was a wild ride for Bears fans
He had only 12 attempts in his only 0.0 rated game (week 17 of that 2006 Super Bowl season). He was 2 of 12 for 33 yards and 3 INTs. His uncapped passer rating was -76.7.
Grossman's worst game with 20+ attempts had an official rating of 10.2.
Incredible episode.
babe wake up new secret base video just dropped
Dan Pastorini has entered the chat.
Screw you guys.
Dan Pastorini has left the chat.
Passer rating has been so stupid and made no sense to me. Glad to see it is actually broken and I wasn't just being dumb.
Both can be true 😊
Shoutout to Lynn Dickey: the hottest of hots, and the coldest of cold
The answer, when it comes to individual performances and career in general, is and always will be Nathan Peterman.
10:25 I’m sorry WHO
I think the Basement is pretty obvious why the NFL doesn't want that metric out there in the world. But the literal upper bounds of the QB metric doesn't make any sense. Why not celebrate a QB who has an absolute romp of a game.
10:01 I got an ad that started with the word “prime” right before Alex could say it here O_o
Gary Hogeboom sightings always make my day.
I did some quick math on Goff’s recent performance. I got about 189.95 real Passer Rating.

close :)
@@SecretBaseSBNThanks. I figured I was off by a bit given how I was doing the math, but being under by less than a tenth is pretty good.
Really would be cool to see one of these videos focus specifically on Super Bowl performances. I think the changed QBR statistics could showcase a new angle on how the NFC’s 15+ year straight Super Bowl wins hapoened.
When all the names are shown on the complete graph, I noticed the slight upward trend over time. It looks like NFL quarterbacks overall are slowly increasing in quality. Possibly what he was referring to at the end of the video when he said there was more to explore in another video.
Hearing Grogan's name at the end hurt my heart. I still love ya Steve. Toughest QB ever.
So Goff going 19-19 this week won’t make this graphic which is wild.
i'm a Jon Bois lifer but it's refreshing to know that Alex Rubenstein can hold his own without him
Jon bois moved on from simple sports
In conclusion, Lynn Dickey is a land of contrasts. Thank you.
This is wonderful.
I saw the title and the Oilers logo and thought, "Yeah, that sounds about right."
1:57 as a browns fan, having only one QB on this list shocked me
Most unskippable ads ive seen on a vid in years. Ive seen less on a 5 hour essay on film than this 15 min one 😂
Ah, Nathan Peterman. The Most Negative QB Ratio.
This epic QB suck fest will look familiar to Jets, Bears and Browns fans.
Three of the worst at drafting and training a prospective QB.
babe wake up secret base just posted
What would Pastorini's passer rating be including those 4 dropped INTs?
I like how his passes to Raiders DBs resulted in more drops and less picks than his passes to Raiders DLs 😂
I'm pretty sure it was never meant to be used for individual games. Still good videos.
Is there a way to see the full actual passer rating list online? Like this video but with stats and dates 😂
Those iconic Oilers uniforms,RIP house of pain!
Where's Rex Grossman on the list. He always gave me hope- I always felt that I too could throw a 0.0 QBR.
I’m actually sort of surprised there isn’t a bigger increase in the passer rating over the years. There seems to be some increase for sure, but I’d expect more since the standards for passer efficiency are much much higher today. Our friend Dan Pastorini actually made the Pro Bowl one year with more picks than TDs. Generally in the 70s, if you had more TDs than INTs and had a completion percentage above 50, you were a pretty good QB. Obviously you wouldn’t even make the roster with those stats today.
You're being very generous, but I don't think I could chuck the ball to the popcorn vendor even once, let alone on every snap. I'd stick to spiking it I think. 😅
I remember an episode of Sunday NFL Countdown back in ESPN's glory days where Chris Berman demonstrated passer rating by saying something to the effect of "I could throw a quick five-yard out to Sterling then throw the next 19 passes off the center's butt and I'd still have a better passer rating than so-and-so has this season." I forget who so-and-so was, but notwithstanding the penalties for ineligible receiver in Berman's example, that would indeed produce a passer rating just north of 40.
I love that Dan Pastorini played so bad in this game that he couldn’t complete an interception despite him, throwing it straight in their chest
great content
I wouldn't mind an addendum to this about the lowest QB rating in a game without any minimum qualifier. Feels like there would be some gems there. After all, the true worst games ever QBed would see them benched before they get 20 attempts.
stathead.com/tiny/vGLIt
no minimum qualifier? then it'd be a 679-way tie at -414.58, so hopefully you see the point of the minimum qualifier :)

I need Lynn Dickey to be a guest on the Manningcast at some point, please and thank you.
A few fun facts about Bradshaw's five stinkers:
[1] The Steelers actually won two of those games, and would have won three had the '71 Bears not managed to score two TDs in the final 4 minutes to squeak by 17-15.
[2] In the one game where the opposing QB performed worse than Bradshaw, the Steelers still lost (just 11 attempts kept the Vikings' Bob Lee off the chart).
[3] His worst game (-29.2 against Green Bay in 1970) was inflated by an 87 yard TD pass. If that had fallen incomplete his unbounded rating would have been -68.1
[4] Only one of those games - a 7-6 win against the Bengals - was during one of their Super Bowl years (1978).
Johnny Football, it’s your time to shine
How bad would/could it get if you accounted for sacks and/or fumbles as part of the passer rating formula? After all, a lost strip-sack is roughly as awful as an interception.
This is literally just a class on passer rating. They should use this in college algebra classes across the globe
All im here for is the 0.0 vs 0.0 game from the falcons doc
Big take away is that inorder to be allowed to have a really bad game is that you have to have been or be really good. Otherwise the coaches will pull you from it.
Do an episode on what passing yards would look like if YAC was only applied to the receiver
I never heard of a football being referred to as a can of corn
Next you should do this but adjust for the average passer rating for the year; passer rating was originally made so that a 66.7 rating would be considered average, but nowadays that rating would be terrible.
1972 Jack Tatum was really about not intercepting passes thrown directly at him huh
3:14 Jack Tatum let those passes fall on purpose because they didn't come with an opportunity to paralyze someone
Ready to hear about some Falcons QBing
Quote To JG9:
... Which is worse than spiking the ball onto the ground, on every single play.
Passer rating is fine as long as you have a reasonable minimum threshold of games played. If you stack rank qbs by rating it’s very similar to rankings by more “advanced” metrics used now.
Now we need "The NFL's most average QB performances are actually more bland than they have us believe"
I need to see Will Levis throw all his passes at the vender to see what the QB rating will be
Can you review Goff's "perfect" game?
My biggest takeaway from this series so far is that Alex Does. Not. Like. Lynn Dickey
2:38 - can we all marvel at the 1970’s era take that scrambling and improvising are *not* skills that are prized in a “well-coached pro quarterback”?
Unless your name was Fran Tarkenton and your coach was Bud Grant, that was a pretty good rule of thumb in the '70s.
RIP Pastorini, you’d love Jackson Arnold
Does anyone know why we even have passer rating in the first place? No other position has a grade.
All composite metrics are tweaked so that the players that the person making it think is good look good and the players they think are bad look bad. Pass rating guy probably liked Brett Favre or some other QB that threw a lot of INT but also a lot of yards and TD.
I always laugh a little bit when the formula gives someone a "perfect rating". The only way to get a TRULY perfect rating is if every pass thrown is completed, and completed for a touchdown. Anything less is NOT perfect.
I like that in this series, you've actually shown and demonstrated WHY there are artificial boundries for the Passer Rating stat.
Take the Staubach game... two of the interceptions were because the RECEIVER dropped/batted the ball and a defender happened to come down with it. How is that the fault of the passer or of the pass? I argue that it's simply unfair to nail the passer for a receiver's poor performance or because of an act of chaos.
On the flip side, when Santorini threw a screen pass that got tackled for a 5 yard loss... what would have happened if the receiver had slipped the tackle and taken it to the house? Well, then Santorini would get credit for a 60+ yards passing and a touchdown, when, again, his actual pass had NOTHING to do with the outcome of the play. It would be the runner's great move or a defender's poor tackle that made the play what it was. Why should the QB get credit for a touchdown pass?
I think the limits put on the Passer Rating are an effort to reign in some of the nonsense that is the other passing stats. It's all imperfect, and the current calculation takes that into account. If you remove the barriers, the calculation would in many cases resemble GIGO (Garbage In, Garbage Out).
every other qb thats playing a reasonably normal game gets dinged for picks that arent their fault too, why should those who have otherwise been awful enough to be that low not get dinged? that makes no sense...you cant pick and choose the instances where picks that arent the QB's fault get properly incorporated into the formula and other instances of picks that arent the QB's fault dont get properly incorporated...why does an nba player who creates an open look for a teammate get credited with an assist just because his teammate happened to make the shot, whereas another instance of a player demonstrating the same exact skills and abilities in generating an open look for a teammate doesnt get an assist if their teammate happened to miss their open shot? everyone knows not all INTs are the fault of the QB, but that's way too slippery a slope to throw a bone to those who stunk the rest of the game that those who didnt dont get to receive. there's no way a formula can know who was at fault for an INT, and in the same way that its possible that someone threw a bunch of picks in which some werent his fault, its also possible that they all could have indeed been the QB's fault. you cant have a formula that assumes things one way or another
@@SecretBaseSBN That's exactly my point. Many stats don't accurately reflect the true effect of an athletic performance, in football or in other sports, so why should the passer rating be "perfected" when the info going into it is suspect? The boundries in place are an effort to reign in the chaos and restore some semblance of sanity to statistical analysis.
Personally, I feel that the official scorer of football games should have some measure of judgment when it comes to INTs or even TD passes, similarly how a baseball scorer can decide between a hit or an error or a fielder's choice. If that were the case, then there would be less of a need for the boundries on Passer Rating.
just because passer rating is by nooooo means perfect even without the artificial boundaries, that doesnt mean they should just make it worse and be deceitful for no reason (and no, baselessly assuming all picks from low-pick games were earned while baselessly assuming not all picks from high-pick games were earned, which is in a way exactly what the formula does, is not a valid reason)
in the same way that someone could have a game with 4 or 5 picks in which 1 or 2 werent their fault, someone could have a game with 4 or 5 picks in which all of 'em were indeed their fault
in the same way that someone could have a game with 1 pick in which their lone pick wasnt their fault, someone could have a game with 1 pick in which the lone pick was their fault.
yet the player with 4 or 5 picks in which 1 wasnt their fault is granted a mercy that the player who throws 1 pick in which the 1 wasnt their fault is not granted
again, removing the boundaries would not be some magical answer that would make the passer rating formula some perfect be-all and end-all way to assess QB play, but it would sure as hell mitigate some issues, give it a hell of an improvement, remove the disingenuousness, and make it an even playing field
We played an 8-on-11 JV game once. 1/7 -2 Passing yards 0 Interceptions. Not ideal.
I knew as soon as the premise was explained that Manning was going to have the highest delta. He's had some of the worst games of all time despite his greatness.
I was surprised to see that his 2004 AFCCG rating wasn't constrained at all
As an oilers fan, props.
It’s a wonder how Miami wasn’t shell shocked enough to pick another Dan as their QB after a performance like that🤣
Noticed by his metric the highest rated game ever was played by Lamar Jackson. I think that was the 442 passing yards 4 TDs, 86% completion with 62 on the ground for 2 more TDs.
