what do you mean by "verified"
quote:What is this "something" which by definition cannot be verified? The ESPN QBR is not unverifiable by definition. It's unverifiable because ESPN chooses to keep it proprietary. ESPN refuses to produce the inputs or the equation by which the ESPN QBR is calculated.
something, which by definition cannot be verified
I can verify a batting average. I just need to know the stats. Once the stats are know, I can plug them into the batting average equation.
I can verify a QB Rating. I just need to know the stats. Once the stats are know, I can plug them into the QB Rating equation.
I, and no one else outside of ESPN, can verify the QBR. No one outside of ESPN knows what the inputs are or what the equation is.

the 'by definition' was for purposes of efficiency ... not practicality ... anymore than proprietary = subjective = unreliable.
Was simply a mathematical expression.
