Here are the 5 best playoff QB performances of all time:
1. Tom Brady (Super Bowl XLIX) – In one of the most thrilling Super Bowls of all time, Brady led the Patriots back from a 28-24 deficit against the Seattle Seahawks. He finished with 4 touchdown passes and 328 yards passing, earning him his 4th Super Bowl MVP award.
2. Drew Brees (Super Bowl XLIV) – Brees was nearly perfect in leading the Saints to their first ever Super Bowl title.
He completed 32 of 39 passes for 288 yards and 2 touchdowns, as well as 1 rushing touchdown. He was named Super Bowl MVP after leading his team to a 31-17 victory over Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts.
3. Aaron Rodgers (2011 NFC Divisional Round) – In what may be the greatest individual performance in NFL playoff history, Rodgers led the Packers to an improbable comeback win over the top-seeded Dallas Cowboys.
Down by 14 points with less than 4 minutes remaining in regulation, Rodgers connected on 2 touchdown passes to force overtime. He would then throw another TD pass in OT to give Green Bay a 34-31 win. For his efforts, he was named NFC Championship Game MVP.
4. Kurt Warner (Super Bowl XXXIV) – Warner had already cemented his place among the all-time greats with his performance in Super Bowl XXXIV but he solidified it with his gutsy performance against Tennessee in this game. Despite being hit hard throughout the contest, Warner kept getting back up and making plays. He finished with 414 yards passing and 2 TDs as he led the Rams to a 23-16 victory over Steve McNair and the Titans .

Highest Qbr All-Time
When it comes to the greatest quarterbacks of all time, there are a lot of different ways to measure greatness. One way is to look at a quarterback’s QBR, or quarterback rating. The highest QBR ever recorded belongs to Peyton Manning, who had a QBR of 115.8 in 2013.

How Many Perfect Qbr Games are There?
In an NFL season, there are a total of 256 regular season games. A perfect QBR game would occur if a quarterback achieved a 100.0 passer rating and threw 0 interceptions in any given game. In order to achieve a 100.0 passer rating, the quarterback would need to complete at least 75% of their passes for 300 yards and 3 touchdowns with no interceptions.
So far in NFL history, there have been 23 quarterbacks who have had a perfect game according to these criteria.
Has a Qb Ever Had a Perfect Qbr?
While a perfect QBR is certainly possible in theory, it has yet to be achieved in practice. In fact, the highest single-game QBR ever recorded belongs to Peyton Manning, who posted a 97.6 in Week 1 of the 2014 season. That said, there have been several instances of quarterbacks coming close to perfection.
Tom Brady’s QBR in Week 14 of the 2007 season was 96.2, while Aaron Rodgers’ was 95.8 in Week 15 of the 2011 campaign.
What is a Good Qbr Per Game?
A good QBR per game is one that falls within the range of 60-70%. This is the sweet spot for quarterbacks, as it indicates they are performing well enough to lead their team to victory while also not making too many mistakes. Anything below 60% is considered subpar, and anything above 70% is considered elite.
For reference, Tom Brady’s career QBR is 87.4%.
What is the Lowest Qbr Ever in a Game?
The lowest QBR ever in a game was 0.00, which occurred when Ryan Leaf of the San Diego Chargers completed zero passes and threw two interceptions against the Kansas City Chiefs in 1998.
