you tell us what that basis is
Your statement emphatically implies that ESPN is flawless. You brought it up. It's ALL for you to defend.
You present the source collection that supplies the analysis for the ESPN QBR.
You present the equation by which the analysis for the ESPN QBR is conducted.
First Principles, BCS Statmaster.
You brought up the ESPN QBR. You defend it.

In 2012, the ESPN QBR listed Denard Robinson and Landry Jones ahead of future 1st round picks Geno Smith and Teddy Bridgewater, as well as Aaron Murray, the SEC career leader in completions, passing yards, TD passes, and total offense.... despite the latter quarterbacks having a higher NCAA Quarterback Rating... who were the better quarterbacks?
In 2013, the ESPN QBR listed Dak Prescott, who played behind Tyler Russell, ahead of future 1st round picks Johnny Manziel, Teddy Bridgewater, and Blake Bortles, as well as Zach Mettenberger, who led the nation in 3rd down % and yards per pass.
This past year, the ESPN QBR listed Kenny Hill, who was benched midway through the season, as one of the Top 10 QBs in CFB.
There are plenty more examples from both CFB and from the NFL that I could use.... but I believe this is enough (if not the "adjustments" posted earlier) to demonstrate that there are obvious flaws within the ESPN QBR system.
