The formula:

             --                                                    --
             | (COMP% - 30)     (GAIN - 3)     TD%     (9.5 - INT%) |
             | ------------  +  ----------  +  ---  +  ------------ |
RATE = 100 * |      20              4           5           4       |
             | ---------------------------------------------------- |
             |                             6                        |

Where COMP% = Completion percentage (divide by number of attempts)
      GAIN  = Average gain (per attempt)
      TD%   = Percent touchdowns (divide by number of attempts)
      INT%  = Percent interceptions (divide by number of attempts)
