ISFL Air Quality Report (Season 1)
Hi everyone! I have kind of mentioned this before in the past about compiling and analyzing the quarterback position in the ISFL and I would like to introduce you to the first edition of the ISFL Air Quality Report which will be used to analyze all quarterbacks to ever play the game in the history of the league starting from the beginning of the ISFL, and eventually getting to current dates as well as DSFL anaylsis as well. I will also be tracking DSFL QBs this season as my player plays in the DSFL to really analyze how my player is doing in comparison to the other QBs in the developmental league so, if you are a DSFL QB, be prepared to see some extra stats and stuff! We will look at a bunch of different stats, which some are available in the index while others are only available in the game and the culmination of statistics can, to my knowledge, not be found, at least not easily. I will essentially be releasing these as I enter them in my own personal database which I will put out when it is complete if someone wanted to look at every passing stat ever! It will likely take a bit but I should be able to get a season per week written but 3-5 seasons per week in the database so by next season, we should have a full NSFL/ISFL database of passing stats and go from there!
How will it work?
With this being the first edition, I should probably explain how this will be used and how it will work going forward and just what kind of things I will put out and what I will personally look for when comparing quarterbacks or the passing game in general. I think it is important to set a baseline on what we will be putting out and feel free to do your own analysis as well as I will likely provide my own thoughts and opinions with this and how I interpret the data. I hope to add graphs and such at a future time but right now, just keeping stats!
The data and analysis will be broken down by season into 3 sort of subsections that we will analyze and talk about.
1) Season Averages
2) Team Passing (Season and Career)
3) Individual Passing (Season and Career)
The first thing we will introduce is the overall season averages of passing in the NSFL/ISFL to establish a baseline on how the league is in terms of overall passing that season. Looking at what the average completion percentage, passer rating, touchdown rate, and others will allow us to then look at the next two sections and narrow down what teams or what players were average or either above or below the baseline for that season. We look at it in terms of who was the better passing teams or quarterbacks based on league average rather than looking at overall work which should help cut the differences of eras to a point so a quarterback with a passer rating of 90 in a league with an average passer rating of 90 is looked at differently than a quarterback with a passer rating of 85 in a league with an average passer rating of 73.
We can than look at a culmination of things to that point in time so analyzing season one now and then future looking at seasons 1 through 6 and so on and so forth. We can compile overall statistics over the years and see how things have changed and look more towards career statistics as well as overall team totals as well and could even see what teams have a history of being one of the better teams in ISFL history. We can also look at the top passers and bottom passers and at some point, really evaluate the best quarterbacks of all-time using the overall culmination of these stats. Let's get it started!
Season 1 (The Inaugural Season):
The birth of the NSFL, the only year in league history with 6 teams (We will call them the Original 6), the time for people to figure out the sim and what works and where everyone is starting from the ground up. There was less of a TPE gap in the league to start with everyone being year 1 and it was pretty much a bunch of sim luck, better low TPE builds, how will offensive players compare to defensive, and just overall league set up, there were a lot of factors! With our sim, there is still a good amount of variance no matter what however and to my knowledge, there were probably still some sort of TPE gap between players and more importantly in this case, quarterbacks. There is no doubt it was a much different league then especially compared to the league nowadays!
Season One Passing Totals (6 Teams):
Completions: 1,533
Attempts: 2,737
Pass Yards: 16,760
Pass TDs: 89
Pass INTs: 84
Sacks Taken: 318
Season One Per Team Passing Averages (6 Teams):
Completions: 255.5
Attempts: 456.17
Pass Yards: 2793.33
Pass TDs: 14.83
Pass INTs: 14
Sacks Taken: 53
Season One Passing Rates (6 Teams):
Completion Percentage: 56.01%
Yards Per Attempt: 6.12
Yards Per Completion: 10.93
Touchdown Rate: 3.25%
Interception Rate: 3.07%
Passer Rating: 72.32
Sack Rate: 10.41%
A pretty rough year for passing overall to start off the league. When the passer rating stat was created back in, what I believe is 1973, the average passer rating was usually benchmarked around 66.7 while anything 100 or more would be considered excellent, however the average number is now somewhere in the mid to high 80s in today's NFL. Passer rating is generally pretty reliable when talking about the overall status of the passing offenses because it includes a lot of the important stats that we care about.
To calculate passer rating, you use completion percentage, yards per attempts, touchdown rate, and interception rate essentially.
The actual formula looks something like this:
100 x [5(COMPLETIONS/ATTEMPTS - .3) + 0.25(YARDS/ATTEMPT - 3) + 20(TOUCHDOWNS/ATTEMPT) + {2.375 - 25(INTECEPTIONS/ATTEMPTS)}]/6
So yeah, it pretty much includes everything!
However, it does not tell us everything and generally is a stat that favors efficiency over anything else so a QB who completes a lot of short passes and turns the ball over less, or a game manager can easily have a good passer rating compared to a gunslinger who throws a lot of touchdowns and yards but turns the ball over a bit more.

I included the totals just as a personal thing to see which team had more stats above average compared to other passing averages. We had a few teams finish in the positives, led by Yellowknife with a +5 and Orange County with a +3 but you also have the opposite end with Baltimore at a -9 and San Jose with a -1. This does not tell us much especially since it is using more of the counting stats so if you threw more on average, there was a good chance that you would get some points for being a team that threw a lot, however, if we look at the rate statistics we may get a different story.
For reference, including counting stats we have this:
Ranked Passing Offenses (Season 1):
1. Yellowknife
2. Orange County
3. Arizona
4. Colorado
5. San Jose
6. Baltimore
Now, if we just look at the stats I care about here, my big 5, those would be Yards per attempt, passer rating, completion percentage, touchdown rate, and interception rate
Per team you have:
Arizona: +1
Baltimore: -3
Colorado: +3
Orange County: +1
San Jose: -3
Yellowknife: +3
We see a similar ranking but a little different and this would be more of a passing efficiency rankings for each offense:
Passing Efficiency Rankings (Season 1):
1. Yellowknife*
1. Colorado
3. Arizona*
3. Orange County
5. San Jose*
5. Baltimore
*Passer rating used as tiebreaker
This is a bit more telling I think, at least when it comes to overall efficiency from a team's passing game and Colorado sneaks up a bit while Orange County sinks a bit as they were more volume stats based than efficiency but good enough to stay in the positive. The rest stays around the same. We will look more into more official rankings, the AW QB Ranking when we focus on individuals next.
Season One Individual Passing Numbers
There were 10 quarterbacks who threw passes but really there were only about 7 that actually handled the ball a decent amount of time for their team so we will focus on these 7. The average number attempts would be around 273.7 per quarterback so we will shrink it back and take the 7 quarterbacks who threw more than 200 times.
Only 2 teams had all their snaps taken by one guy and that was Baltimore and Colorado while 2 teams also had backups who threw less than 10 times in Arizona and Yellowknife. Only San Jose and Orange County had backup or second quarterbacks attempt at least 93 passes.

For the individuals, I want to do something a little different when comparing statistics so I am going to come up with the AW Rating. Yes, this rating will be purely subjective but I would hope it kind of helps somewhat and it is generally what I would look for if I was ranking quarterbacks or voting on awards.
The AW Rating:
Using the top half of the league (Top 3 for Season 1), assign points based off league leaders in certain statistical areas. The points will be weighted per statistic as follows:
Passer rating:
1st Place: 10 points
2nd Place: 8 points
3rd Place: 5 points
Yards Per Attempt:
1st Place: 8 points
2nd Place: 6 points
3rd Place: 4 points
Completion Percentage:
1st Place: 7 points
2nd Place: 5 points
3rd Place: 3 points
Touchdown Rate:
1st Place: 5 points
2nd Place: 3 points
3rd Place: 2 points
Interception Rate:
1st Place: 5 points
2nd Place: 3 points
3rd Place: 2 points
Passing Yards:
1st Place: 2 points
2nd Place: 1 point
3rd Place: 1 point
We will also take away one point from any statistic that does not meet the league average for that season with the exception of passing yards as a few multi-QB teams early on can skew these numbers of league wide passing yard averages per team.
This puts emphasis on my more important stats for a QB which are the passer rating, yards per attempt, and completion percentage while also giving solid weight to touchdown rates and interception rates and a potential tiebreaker in passing yards though that should not move it much. This will also use just the main quarterback on each roster so for the purposes of this, only Jameis Christ will be used for San Jose.
Passer Rating:
1) Chris Orosz - 77.6 - 10 points
2) Logan Noble - 77.2 - 8 points
3) Vincent Draxel - 73.6 - 5 points
Yards Per Attempt:
1) Mike Boss - 6.63 - 8 points
2) Vincent Draxel - 6.44 - 6 points
3) Chris Orosz - 6.10 - 4 points (Minus one for under league average) = 3 points
Completion Percentage:
1) Mike Boss - 59.66% - 7 points
2) Scrub Kyubee - 58.29% - 5 points
3) Chris Orosz - 57.77% - 3 points
Touchdown Rate:
1) Vincent Draxel - 4.50% - 5 points
2) Logan Noble - 3.36% - 3 points
3) Mike Boss - 3.13% - 2 points (Minus one for under league average) = 1 point
Interception Rate:
1) Logan Noble - 1.79% - 5 points
2) Chris Orosz - 1.97% - 3 points
3) Vincent Draxel - 3.15% - 2 points (Minus one for under league average) = 1 point
Passing Yards:
1) Vincent Draxel - 2858 - 2 points
2) Chris Orosz - 2788 - 1 point
3) Logan Noble - 2603 - 1 point
Point Totals:
Chris Orosz: 20 points
Vincent Draxel: 19 points
Logan Noble: 17 points
Mike Boss: 16 points
Scrub Kyubee: 5 points
Jameis Christ: 0 points
Well there you have it! Our best QB based on the AW Rating is Chris Orosz out of Yellowknife, winning by just one point over Vincent Draxel who would have been at 20 but the rule that subtracts a point for being below league average cost him a point as his interception rate was just .08 too high. Generally I would say that this rating favors efficiency but I tend to usually love a QB who is efficient however a stat like yards per attempt is a good barometer of a QB's ability to make plays and push the ball downfield as well which is why I have it so high. The passer rating stat generally uses all of these stats in it's formula so that is why it was given the highest point totals and first and second can earn a lot of points for this.
While the AW Rating formula is far from perfect, I think it is pretty good for on the spot QB Analysis and if we look back to see the QB of the Year for season 1...the answer is also Chris Orosz so it at least would have predicted the winner here. We can use the AW Rating in future parts of this series to see how closely they match up with the actual award winners!
I had a lot of fun writing and compiling these numbers and I hope you enjoyed the read and analysis!
Season 2 should be coming sometime next week as it is already in my database, I just need to find the time to write a bunch but subsequent ones should in general be shorter as less explanations and stuff will be needed.
As the DSFL Season gets underway however, expect to also see articles with DSFL QB stats which usually look around what we saw in NSFL season 1 with some pretty inefficient passing as things were still coming underway. I want to see how my player compares to the rest of the QBs in the DSFL and hopefully that will be a fun one as well, especially for teams in the DSFL and users who are developmental quarterbacks along with me. Should be a fun one!
With the current season, we should also be able to look for more things with more advanced stats as well so I will give a small preview here and also I want to add some words to this because payouts are nice, am i right?
There are certainly more statistics that we can look at when we actually go into looking at a game by game basis and go through the logs and play by play of the game. We can see how many times a quarterback was sacked for example and also see how many of those sacks were resulted by the offensive line or blockers and some that may or may not be the QB's fault though it is definitely hard to say. We can more easily look at individual players' sack rates as well as factor any yards per play or attempt stats that include the sack numbers and the amount of yards lost by the QB being sacked. We can also look more into the rushing stats of quarterbacks as it seems to be a bigger growing trend and will likely be more featured in these articles as well as QB rushing is certainly a big part of the game today. We can look at how many incompletions were due to wide receivers dropping the ball or quarterbacks either spiking the ball or throwing it away to try and get a more accurate accuracy on their passes rather than saying which balls were completed or not. There is a lot we can do when looking at just individual games and while I do hope to include that more in these almanac type articles, it will take a very long time. I still would really love a stats team for the league and would love to get something going if the league is interested!
The new stats team could compile all the stats all-time in the league which I am not sure we have here or not other than the top 10 stuff in the index for certain stats available there. All-time team stats such as wins, losses, offensive and defensive stats as well as points scored and stuff would be really cool. All-time GM stats and player stats are also very plentiful so a stats or history team would be something really awesome to add. We could even have a way to get it on the Wiki as currently is there but those are currently limited and probably need more people like an AW led stats team to help compile and update those!
Anyways, I am rambling! I hope you enjoyed and would like to see more!

Season 2 should be coming sometime next week as it is already in my database, I just need to find the time to write a bunch but subsequent ones should in general be shorter as less explanations and stuff will be needed.
As the DSFL Season gets underway however, expect to also see articles with DSFL QB stats which usually look around what we saw in NSFL season 1 with some pretty inefficient passing as things were still coming underway. I want to see how my player compares to the rest of the QBs in the DSFL and hopefully that will be a fun one as well, especially for teams in the DSFL and users who are developmental quarterbacks along with me. Should be a fun one!
With the current season, we should also be able to look for more things with more advanced stats as well so I will give a small preview here and also I want to add some words to this because payouts are nice, am i right?
There are certainly more statistics that we can look at when we actually go into looking at a game by game basis and go through the logs and play by play of the game. We can see how many times a quarterback was sacked for example and also see how many of those sacks were resulted by the offensive line or blockers and some that may or may not be the QB's fault though it is definitely hard to say. We can more easily look at individual players' sack rates as well as factor any yards per play or attempt stats that include the sack numbers and the amount of yards lost by the QB being sacked. We can also look more into the rushing stats of quarterbacks as it seems to be a bigger growing trend and will likely be more featured in these articles as well as QB rushing is certainly a big part of the game today. We can look at how many incompletions were due to wide receivers dropping the ball or quarterbacks either spiking the ball or throwing it away to try and get a more accurate accuracy on their passes rather than saying which balls were completed or not. There is a lot we can do when looking at just individual games and while I do hope to include that more in these almanac type articles, it will take a very long time. I still would really love a stats team for the league and would love to get something going if the league is interested!
The new stats team could compile all the stats all-time in the league which I am not sure we have here or not other than the top 10 stuff in the index for certain stats available there. All-time team stats such as wins, losses, offensive and defensive stats as well as points scored and stuff would be really cool. All-time GM stats and player stats are also very plentiful so a stats or history team would be something really awesome to add. We could even have a way to get it on the Wiki as currently is there but those are currently limited and probably need more people like an AW led stats team to help compile and update those!
Anyways, I am rambling! I hope you enjoyed and would like to see more!
