All 32 NFL quarterbacks (including Bo Nix) ranked by Total QBR

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix posted a Total QBR rating of 56.2 in a 23-16 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last week, bringing his season-long Total QBR average to 44.0.

That’s a slight improvement from last week’s rating (43.1), but Nix has fallen from being ranked No. 25 in the NFL down to No. 28 due to other QBs improving their ratings in Week 6.

Nix’s traditional passer rating this season is 73.7, which ranks 30th.

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.
