You can look at those stats but they are VERY misleading. For one, there are no common opponents. For 2, out of the teams listed ND played the teams with defenses ranked in the top 10 in the country. Tenn, Ark, and ND all had very weak defenses and relied on offense to win games. If Russell was in a game with a team like USC/Michigan/LSU which all have great team speed and strength on defense he would have had even worse numbers. Thriving in games against ranked teams with poor defenses is nothing to be proud of IMO. You need to look at their entire body of work. Which Quinn's career was MUCH more successful and he did much more with an offense that had drastically less talent then that of LSU's. The 2nd best player on ND's offense is now playing baseball for christs sake.
