(Still wonders if DakotaT actually read the original post).
Not really. What it implied is that you passed more accurately than the other team.
Let's take a hypothetical example. Team A threw for 300 yards, completed 70% of their passes, 3 TDs, 0 INTs. Ran 10 times for 15 yards (rushing TDs unlisted.
Team B threw for 100 yards, completed 40% of their passes, threw 1 TD and 4 INTs but ran 40 times for 200 yards (rushing TDs unlisted).
Who won?
By the original argument, Team A wins most of the time.
Note that the reason why rushing TDs are unlisted is it's not part of the stats for "rushing O" whereas passing rating is the topic of this post.
