Math Is Hard. This Is Ridiculous.

So my boy Ben Roethlisberger had a perfect passer rating on Sunday of 158.3. His stats: 9 of 11 for 218 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions.

158.3

Shawn, you may ask, why is 158.3 a perfect rating? Silly child, it is very simple. You simply take:

- Completion percentage, minus 30, multiplied by .05
- Yards per attempt, minus 3, multiplied by .25
- Touchdown percentage multiplied by .2
- Interception percentage, multiplied by .25, subtracted from 2.375
- Add previous four totals, divide by 6, multiply by 100

Don't ask me. I was a Journalism major.
