Does anybody out there in netland know how quarterback ratings are determined?
I have looked through several books and have been unable to find the OFFICIAL
NFL method for calculating these ratings.  For example, Dan Marino and Joe
Montana both had ratings over 100 points last year.  Where do these numbers
come from?

I am looking for the OFFICIAL rating method only.  Please respond using
electronic mail so that the newsgroup isn't cluttered up with repeated
responses.  I'll post anything that I find out in a follow up article.

Thanks,
