No it doesn't. Football is played on a field with twenty two players. People who attribute wins to QBs but not other players should probably explore tennis, boxing or any other one-on-one sport instead.
You know who attributes wins to QBs but not other players; the league itself.
Wikipedia:
quarterback starts were first officially tracked in 1950. In the NFL, the starting quarterback is the only position that is credited with records of wins and losses.
as an edit to this - the stat recognizes that the team, won the game, during said QBs start. the QB didn't just walk out there by himself and solo 11 other guys, understood
