QB Reports
QB comparison, receiver chemistry, and drive efficiency analysis.
Overview
The QB section of the Play Analyzer provides detailed quarterback performance metrics, receiver chemistry breakdowns, and drive-by-drive efficiency analysis. Use it for evaluating QB play, comparing multiple quarterbacks, and understanding your passing game dynamics.

QB Charts
Completion % by Game
Line chart showing each QB's accuracy game by game. Look for improvement trends or concerning dips over the season.
Touchdowns by Game
Bar chart showing TD production per game. Helps identify which QBs perform in big games vs. easier matchups.
Target Distribution
Donut chart per QB showing where passes go. Top 5 receivers are named; rest grouped as "Other". A QB who throws 50%+ to one receiver is easier to defend.
Catch Rate by QB
Grouped bar chart comparing catch rates for the same receivers across different QBs. Reveals which QB-receiver combos have the best chemistry.
QB-Receiver Chemistry Matrix
A heat-mapped table with QBs as rows and receivers as columns. Each cell shows catches/targets, catch percentage, touchdowns, and receiving yards. Background color reflects catch rate:
Drive Analysis
Drive Outcomes by QB
Stacked bar chart showing how each QB's drives end: TD (green), FG (blue), INT (red), Fumble (orange), Punt (gray).
Plays per Drive
Histogram showing drive length distribution. More longer drives generally indicates a more efficient offense.
Drive Log
Detailed table of every drive: QB, result, play count, yards, starting/ending field position, and receivers targeted. Rows are color-coded by outcome.
💡Analysis Tips
- Use the QB selector checkboxes to compare specific quarterbacks head-to-head.
- Filter by game to see QB performance in a single matchup.
- Look at TD Drive Rate alongside Completion% for a complete picture of QB effectiveness.
- The chemistry matrix reveals which receivers a QB trusts most in key situations.
