In NFL, the highest passer rating a quarterback can receive is 158.333 The formula is composed of four parts, which includes completion percentage (C): ((COMP/ATT*100)-30)/20 yards per attempt (Y): ((YDS/ATT)-3)*0.25 touchdowns per attempt (T): (TD/ATT)*20 interceptions per attempt (I): 2.375-(INT/ATT)*25 note: any of those four components cannot be less than 0 or more than 2.375, if it appears to be over 2.375, award 2.375, if it appears to be under 0, award 0 total passer rating = (C+Y+T+I)/6*100 so the highest rating is (2.375+2.375+2.375+2.375)/6*100 =158.333 In NCAA, the highest passer rating a quarterback can receive is 1261.6 The forumla is also composed of four parts, which includes completion percentage (C): COMP/ATT*100 yards per attempt (Y): YDS/ATT*8.4 touchdowns per attempt (T): TD/ATT*330 interceptions per attempt (I): INT/ATT*-200 total passer rating = C+Y+T+I The highest a qb can get is 1261.6 if the quarterback completes all of his passes, which are all 99 yards and all touchdowns, and of course has no interceptions.
