There are plenty of ways to judge a quarterback. Some love to point to wins first and almost solely since the quarterback position is the most important when it comes to gaining victories in football. But, others point to performance stats.
One of the more widely accepted performance statistics to judge quarterbacks by is the QBR metric. A lot of things go into QBR. Yards, scores, clutch performances, certain defensive elements, etc.
There have been 25 quarterbacks who have at least 1,500 plays since 2012, and since then Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston has been in the Top 15 in terms of QBR.

Winston is above guys like Cam Newton, Eli Manning, Andy Dalton, and, yes, Marcus Mariota, too.
