Houston Texans second-year quarterback C.J. Stroud didn’t play in Week 14, meaning his Total QBR rating of 53.0 remained intact among all 32 passers.
Stroud’s season-long rating remains in good standing entering the final four games of the regular season, but he still ranks among the bottom half of passers at No. 22 overall.
Stroud’s traditional passer rating this season is 87.8, which ranks 22nd.
Unlike a traditional passer rating, the Total QBR “incorporates all of a quarterback’s contributions to winning, including how he impacts the game on passes, rushes, turnovers and penalties,” according to ESPN.
The metric takes into account scenarios that a traditional passer rating overlooks and considers “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.”
With that context in mind, here’s a look at how Nix stacks up against the NFL’s other starting quarterbacks this fall.
