This project is to determine who is the greatest of all time! Well, sort of. We will look at the NFL quarterbacks from 2000 – 2011 and attempt to determine who was the best and worst over this time period.

Your job in this project is to answer the simple questions: 

• • Which quarterback had the best single season during this period? 

• • Which quarterback had the worst single season? 

When answering these questions, please use the WP statistic to determine a quarterback’s performance. Also, please justify how you determine the best performance for each year. Remember that defenses, weather, rules, number of QBs considered, etc., change each year. 

Grading Rubric: 

Calculation accuracy, 15%, Justification of best each year 20% 

Determination of new metric 15%, Calculation accuracy, 15%, Justification of best each year 15% 

Overall clarity and explanations of the analysis and conclusions, 20%
