That's weighted a lot lower than a more difficult throw for the QB in PFF metrics.
If you want the most accurate QB rating system, it IS PFF. It's not perfect, but it's the best we've got.
It does awesome things, like tell us Matt Cassel actually sucked in 2010.

Wow, great point. That only leaves 6 TDs.
Why does difficulty matter? If a QB plays a game with one shoe, it would be a lot more difficult than playing with two. He'd probably get a higher PFF rating.
