How It Works

Our NFL Passer Rating Calculator determines a quarterback's efficiency based on their passing statistics. This metric offers a comprehensive evaluation of a QB's performance, providing a standardized way to compare players across different games and seasons, including the upcoming 2026 NFL season.

The NFL passer rating is calculated using four key components: completion percentage, yards per attempt, touchdowns per attempt, and interceptions per attempt. Each component is converted into a value between 0 and 2.375, then summed, multiplied by 100, and divided by 6 to yield the final rating, capped at 158.3.

Ensure you input raw numbers for attempts, completions, yards, touchdowns, and interceptions, not percentages or rates. A common mistake is forgetting that a higher passer rating indicates better performance, with 158.3 being the perfect score.

Example: Patrick Mahomes in a hypothetical 2026 game

  1. 1 Input the following stats for a quarterback: 25 completions, 35 attempts, 320 passing yards, 3 touchdowns, and 1 interception.
  2. 2 The calculator processes these inputs through the NFL passer rating formula. It first calculates the individual component scores for completion percentage, yards per attempt, touchdowns per attempt, and interceptions per attempt.
  3. 3 The calculated passer rating for this performance is 118.9.
  4. 4 A passer rating of 118.9 indicates an excellent performance, well above the league average, demonstrating high efficiency in passing, similar to top-tier quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes in a strong 2026 showing.
