Manning has the record of 121.1?

What I can't figure out about this rating stuff is Brady is on pace to have better numbers all the way around then Mannings 2004 campaign(Better Completion %, More TD's, Less Int's, More Yards) Yet he won't have a better passer rating? How is that possible? It just shows you how stupid htat rating mess is!
As a Pats fan since Plunkett was drafted, I find this whole thread depressing. Are we all turning into Indy Manning-lover fans?!?! JUST WIN!!! Screw the records.
Actually, it's not as simple as dividing it up by the number of games. A season QB rating is weighted. If Brady throws 50 passes and has a perfect rating, then perhaps this might do the trick; on the other hand, if he throws 10 passes and has a perfect rating, it absolutely won't happen. Of course, these are extremes, but I use them to explain what I mean.Well, the record is 121.1 and he's @ 117.2. So that's only a 3.9 that he needs to bring it up by. I'm sure that if he has a stellar game it could happen.
I must be doin' something wrong to figure out the average... when I add up his ratings and divide by 15 (number of games played not counting bye week), I come up with 114.6, not 117.2. So I'm not sure how the average is calculated... It seems plausible though to say he can pull it off with another high completion day with a 3+ TD day and 0 picks...
