The John B ratio measures the rate of run plays a team runs versus pass plays when a given running back, wide receiver, or tight end is in the game. It is an attempt to paint a broad picture of what players are featured in what personnel groups. I created it last season. Since I had never heard of anybody else coming up with it before, I decided to name this after myself.
Don't like it? You should have thought of it first. Then you could have named it after anybody you wanted.
