Farve, McNabb, V Young, Garrard and Hasselbeck are in this. That's how bad this graph is.

The more I think about it, the more confused I get about their choice of analysis and statistics. Their purpose is to analyze every game of each QB rather than taking their average across a games; however, by using the same variable for each game and using a clustering method of the means, they are probably not gaining much information because the groups generally follow the expected order. Instead this just shows the general distribution for individuals with a certain QBR. Due to the clear upper (100) and lower (0) bound, not unlike a percentage, those on the extremes will have more skewed distribution and those in the middle will have a more symmetrical distribution. Seems like the Beta (maybe) distribution that is commonly used with percentage data.

Why is Brett Favre randomly in there?

You think he's more random than Vince Young or garrard?

You lost me at Schaub, Bridgewater and Kaep in the second-tier, above Roeth, Wilson and Rivers.

I like your way of thinking...you into machine learning?
I'm more of an experimental design guy so I don't really delve into the realm of big data.
