The Record Blogs: Off the Record: Section II quarterback ratings and stat pack

Here are your Section II NFL QB ratings and stat pack following three weeks of action.
Remember, the QB rating is calculated using a formula that balances four statistical categories (completions per attempt, yards per attempt, touchdowns per attempt and interceptions per attempt) into one number one may use to compare quarterbacks who have a wide variation in their pass attempts. A perfect rating on the scale is 158.3, but anything over 100 is generally considered very good.

Tamarac junior quarterback Nick Casale - the second-leading passer in Section II by yardage - is ranked fourth among the top quarterbacks by the NFL QB rating formula. (Will Montgomery photo - The Record).
