It sounds good in concept but the formula is way too dependent on subjectivity like sacks (and at the same time, doesn't account for drops). People should just take actual QBR for what it is instead of trying to replace it -- it's an efficiency rating which doesn't tell the whole story but gives you a baseline (if you want the whole story, watch the games).

Total QBR is far superior because it takes a lot more into its rating. No question.
For the sake of discussion, though...here are his old school quarterback ratings from those same 4 games.
88.6
68.6
91.7
83.9
