Aikman Efficiency Ratings

On Saturday nights, I think around 11:00 I am not positive of the time, Troy Aikman has a radio show. I listen to it from this internet radio player. Tonight he had a good show, and happened to mention how the NFL has bogus ratings. That they only consider things total yardage. He came up with his own rating system that takes all of the stats together into consideration. I found it interesting and will relay some info after the jump.
