Quinn Ewers jumps 27 spots once you weigh who he faced
A raw quarterback leaderboard rewards easy schedules — sort out who actually played tough defenses, and the order changes a lot.
The biggest mover on the quarterback leaderboard is Texas's Quinn Ewers. Sort the passers by raw numbers and he sits 35th. But once you give him credit for the caliber of defenses he actually went up against, he climbs all the way to 8th — a 27-spot jump, the largest of anyone. That gap tells you the raw list was selling him short. The bare numbers don't show that Ewers was throwing into far stingier defenses than most of the names ahead of him.
