How many NFL quarterbacks have had perfect QB ratings? Kyler Murray joins list with near-flawless outing vs. Rams
Kyler Murray's bounce-back season is underway.
The Cardinals star quarterback missed the first nine games of the 2023 season as he recovered from an ACL injury suffered the year prior. Arizona was already 1-8 by the time Murray got under center, making the former Pro Bowl quarterback relatively forgotten compared to his peers.
The Cardinals finished with the second-worst record in the NFL last season but had higher hopes with Murray fully healthy going into 2024.
It was more of the same for Arizona to open the season, allowing the Bills to make a comeback in a Week 1 loss. The Cardinals faced off against the Rams in a crucial home opener and Murray delivered one of the best games of his career to assure the Cardinals wouldn't fall to 0-2.
Murray completed 17 of his 21 pass attempts (81.0 percent) for 266 passing yards and three touchdowns while adding five rushes for 59 yards on the ground. Arizona handled the Los Angeles 41-10 and Murray made history in the process.
His perfect 158.3 QB rating joined an elite list of quarterbacks to achieve the feat.

How many NFL quarterbacks have had perfect QB ratings?
Murray is the 65th quarterback in NFL history to record a perfect 158.3 QB rating.
A perfect QB rating is something that has only been accomplished 79 times in NFL history.
Murray is the first player to throw a perfect game in five years. Dak Prescott, Lamar Jackson (twice), Aaron Rodgers, and Deshaun Watson were the most recent quarterbacks to achieve the feat, all doing so during the 2019 season.
Peyton Manning and Ben Roethlisberger's four games with a perfect QB rating are tied for the most in NFL history. Jackson is the only active quarterback with more than one.
Murray achieved the feat with an impressive three-touchdown day that only included four incomplete passes and zero interceptions.
He found superstar wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. on two touchdowns — one of which was an explosive 60-yard play on the run.

Murray also connected with backup tight end Elijah Higgins on an 18-yard touchdown in the second quarter to give the Cardinals an early 21-0 lead that they wouldn't surrender.

How is QB rating calculated?
QB rating is calculated with a formula that includes five variables: pass attempts, completions, passing yards, touchdown passes, and interceptions.
Each variable is assigned a value between 0 and 2.375.
The five calculations are as follows:
- (Completions/Attempts - .3) x 5
- (Passing yards/Attempts - 3) x 0.25
- (Passing TDs/Attempts) x 20
- 2.375 - ((Interceptions/Attempts) x 25)
- (Those four results together / 6) x 100
For reference, during the 2022 season, the average passer rating was 89.1.
158.3 is the best passer rating a quarterback can achieve.
