So what a person does in real life has no impact on their rating in the game whatsoever? I will say that yes, numbers in the 90s would make a very good passer.

I guess my argument is he should not be in the 90s for his ratings.

Braxton Miller a 96?? wow he has wheels but he's nowhere near McCarron, Johnny, Murray, and Boyd.. I'd even take Marriota over him and Bridgewater

overrated, should be around 93 tops

He finished tied for 43rd in the country in passer rating at 140.5 (McCarron was #1 at 175.3). His YPA of 8.0 is tied for 25th with 9 other QBs. His completion percentage of 58.3% was good for 80th in the country. Do those stats really show someone who is a very good passer to you? I know I am a Michigan fan so this may sound like the homer in me talking. He is a very good QB because of his legs and that opens throwing opportunities for him, but to say he is a very good passer is a little laughable. Just compare that year of his to Denard Robinson's from 2011 (2012 he was injured for 5 games and was not a QB so the stats aren't a fair comparison). 2011 - 55.0%, 8.4 YPA, 139.7 passer rating. Keep in mind Denard had 15 ints that year to sink his passer rating as opposed to the 6 Miller had in 2012. Everyone, including myself would admit Denard Robinson is not a very good passer. He was electric because of his legs first and foremost.

And if you're gonna compare Miller and Robinson as passers, Miller's arm (91 THP/84 THA) is better than Denard's was in '13.

McCarron's no 97 lol . Other than that the list looks cool, I don't see why it matters though considering there are accurate rosters being made here by good people of the community.

Also you can compare his numbers to Tahj Boyd's (94 THP, 88 THA).

Boyd put up a line of 67.2%, 9.1 YPA, 165.6 (13 ints pulling this # down).

Those ratings are much more accurate based on his real life stats than Miller's. Do you think their arms should be similarly rated given the pretty big disparity in real life stats?

Good point, did not see that, although I would argue Denard's arm was probably overrated there too.

Not shocked at all by these ratings. We had a thread predicting this stuff not too long ago
