Sorry, hit submit before I was ready.
Mine is Quarterback rating. No more inflated and misleading stat than the QBR. Hanagriff brought up yesterday that Aaron Brooks has a higher QB Rating than Johnny Unitas.
Whats yours?

Not a stat, but 40 times are comically overemphasized.

Good one. Would this be more relevant if they made them run it in full pads?

Hollinger isn't a fraud but Wins Shares and WARP > PER.
RBI is the correct answer.

According to many on here, it's got to be the bench press.

I'd agree with this, more of a reflection of the guys around you than yourself. Better tell would be avg w/RISP.

Why?
Rebounds reflect individual effort and assists set up a score. Scoring wins games

It HAS to be total passing yards. I mean YAC inflate a lot of QB's stats.

Like my coach told me
' No one person can win or lose a team played game, except the pitcher. '

And it's easy to compile a lot of passing yards in a loss
