Something is wrong between the Second Tier and On-the-Cusp guys.

remember this analysis is only based on one statistic (i.e. the QBR), which is biased and retarded to begin with, but it's an interesting analysis nonetheless.

Actually it probably proves that QBR is a really shitty statistic to use to judge a QB.

Makes a bit of sense except for "the southerners." WTF does that mean?

Poor job of choosing statistics to use k-clustering on.

They didn't want to put Brees and Ryan in elite so they just put them as "Southerners"? That's retarded

It is strange. Usually cluster analysis is meant to identify individuals from a multiple variables, not one.

Brees is still elite. I'd put him at number 4, but he is absolutely elite.


That's where it ends for elite quarterbacks: Rodgers, Brady, Manning, Brees

How is Bridgewater in the second tier and why the hell is Favre listed?

My guess is small sample size with a confusing and flawed statistic.
