Often, the first complaint heard about the quarterback ratings system is that it ignores a lot of what makes a good quarterback in the first place, such as leadership, play-calling or even a quarterback's rushing stats. What that means in the long run is that even if a quarterback is a strong leader and makes the right decisions while running for a touchdown or two, his rating will suffer if he doesn't complete his passes.
The critics to the system also mention that a lot of what goes into the rating is beyond a quarterback's control.

A completion is when the quarterback passes the ball to the receiver, and the receiver successfully catches the ball in bounds. Yards per attempt measures both how far the ball travels in the air before being caught and how long the receiver runs with it after a completion.
A touchdown pass is when the receiver makes a completion and is either already in the end zone or makes a successful run to the end zone. Interceptions are a quarterback's nightmare, because it means he has made a pass that has been caught by the opposing team.
