After 10 weeks of twists and turns, we’ve separated the contenders from the pretenders and ranked all 32 NFL quarterbacks, from those struggling at the bottom to the ones sitting comfortably at the top.
Let’s get into it!
Who are the top-ranking quarterbacks in the NFL after week 10?
32. Dallas Cowboys: Cooper Rush (Last Week Not Ranked)
Cooper Rush’s performance was far from what Dallas needed. With Dak Prescott sidelined, Rush managed only 45 yards on 13-of-23 passing, failing to lead any meaningful drives or get the Cowboys in the end zone.
31. Las Vegas Raiders (bye): Gardner Minshew (Last Week #32)
The NFL quarterback carousel in Vegas continues. Gardner Minshew struggled with consistency, leading to yet another question mark at QB for the Raiders. His play has been erratic, and it’s only a matter of time before the Raiders start looking for other options.
30. Jacksonville Jaguars: Mac Jones (Last Week Not Ranked)

Mac Jones made his season debut, but it was a tough one. He completed 14 of 22 passes for 111 yards and threw two costly interceptions. Late-game struggles only added to the Jaguars’ woes in another disappointing loss.
29. Indianapolis Colts: Joe Flacco (Last Week #31)
Joe Flacco had a mixed performance, starting the game with a pick-six but rebounding with 272 passing yards and two touchdowns. However, at 39, he’s showing signs of wear, and turnovers remain a major concern.
28. New York Jets: Aaron Rodgers (Last Week #20)
Aaron Rodgers’ return hasn’t been the fairytale Jets fans hoped for. Limited to 151 yards with no touchdowns, the famed NFL quarterback couldn’t find a rhythm and failed to ignite a stagnant Jets offense, settling for field goals instead of scores.
27. Carolina Panthers: Bryce Young (Last Week #29)
Bryce Young kept things simple this week, managing 126 yards and a touchdown without any turnovers. It wasn’t flashy, but for a Panthers team struggling for consistency, his steady hand was a small step forward.
26. New York Giants: Daniel Jones (Last Week #30)
Daniel Jones put up a scrappy performance, rallying the Giants with a late fourth-quarter drive to tie the game, but he did throw two interceptions, and his team came up short in OT.
25. Chicago Bears: Caleb Williams (Last Week #22)
Caleb Williams faced an absolute nightmare on Sunday, enduring nine sacks and managing only 120 yards through the air. He looked overwhelmed, often holding onto the ball too long and making it easy for the Patriots to swarm him.
24. Minnesota Vikings: Sam Darnold (Last Week #10)
Sam Darnold did not have it this week, as he threw three interceptions and showed many of the old, toxic traits that befell him at previous stops.
23. Seattle Seahawks (bye): Geno Smith (Last Week #27)
Cool under pressure, Geno Smith is spreading the ball around, making smart throws, and showing the kind of leadership Seattle’s been craving. He does, however, need to be more careful with the football in the red zone moving forward.
22. New Orleans Saints: Derek Carr (Last Week #28)
This was the best we’ve seen Derek Carr look in some time. He completed 16 of 25 attempts for 269 yards and two scores with no interceptions.
21. New England Patriots: Drake Maye (Last Week #23)
Drake Maye didn’t light up the stat sheet, but he did exactly what the Patriots needed him to do. The rookie NFL quarterback led five scoring drives, made smart decisions, and kept his team moving down the field.
20. Cleveland Browns (bye): Jameis Winston (Last Week #19)
So far, the Cleveland Browns have gotten the full Jameis Winston experience, with him lighting up the Ravens one week and then turning back into an interception-throwing pumpkin the following.
19. Tennessee Titans: Will Levis (Last Week Not Ranked)
They may not have been able to get over the hump and get the win, but Will Levis played sound football in his return to the starting lineup, notching 175 yards and two touchdowns.
18. Houston Texans: C.J. Stroud (Last Week #16)
All in all, C.J. Stroud had a respectable performance with 232 passing yards and a touchdown, but two costly interceptions in the second half played a part in the Texans’ collapse.
17. Denver Broncos: Bo Nix (Last Week #25)
Rookie Bo Nix has continued to impress, as he had the Broncos within seconds of knocking off the undefeated Chiefs this week.
16. Miami Dolphins: Tua Tagovailoa (Last Week #18)
Since returning from injury, Tua’s command of the offense has been impressive, and he’s keeping Miami in games. The health concerns are still there, but right now, he’s playing like a franchise QB.
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Baker Mayfield (Last Week #12)
Definitely not Baker’s most explosive performance of the year, as he finished with just 116 yards and a touchdown, but he did have his team in a position to win against a tough 49ers team despite a myriad of injuries.
14. Green Bay Packers (bye): Jordan Love (Last Week #15)
Jordan Love has shown promise but remains a work in progress in decision-making. This was particularly evident in the gut-wrenching loss to the Lions, where the star NFL quarterback threw multiple interceptions.
13. Arizona Cardinals: Kyler Murray (Last Week #17)
Murray’s poise translated into pinpoint throws and two rushing touchdowns, completing 22 of 24 passes for 266 yards and a touchdown, notching a franchise-record 17 straight completions in the process.
12. Los Angeles Rams: Matthew Stafford (Last Week #14)
When Matthew Stafford is on, it still shows why the Rams went all in for him a few years back. He’s had his share of gutsy throws and high-pressure moments that keep this offense alive.
11. Pittsburgh Steelers: Russell Wilson (Last Week #13)
Russell Wilson is proving his worth for Pittsburgh. He may not have the best stats, but he’s getting it done when it counts. Plus, three touchdowns, including a late go-ahead pass to Mike Williams, isn’t too shabby.
10. Atlanta Falcons: Kirk Cousins (Last Week #11)
Kirk Cousins kept the Falcons in the game and executed several drives well, eclipsing the 300-yard passing mark, yet his inability to finish in crunch time stung.
9. Buffalo Bills: Josh Allen (Last Week #5)
Not Josh Allen’s best day, but he delivered for Buffalo when he needed to. His 280 passing yards and a touchdown, paired with his 57th career rushing score, showed why he’s so difficult to defend.
8. Washington Commanders: Jayden Daniels (Last Week #3)
Jayden Daniels has shown he’s got the spark to lead this team, but Sunday wasn’t his finest performance. The tough Pittsburgh D was able to keep the NFL rookie quarterback out of the end zone all game.
7. Detroit Lions: Jared Goff (Last Week #4)
Despite the rocky start, Goff kept his cool, finding Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta for touchdowns and setting up Jake Bates for the game-winning field goal.
6. San Francisco 49ers: Brock Purdy (Last Week #9)
This was a statement game for Brock Purdy, who has otherwise been a little inconsistent this season, as he hucked the ball all over the Bucs D for 353 yards and two scores with no interceptions.
5. Philadelphia Eagles: Jalen Hurts (Last Week #7)
Jalen Hurts is really starting to round back into form. He recovered nicely from an early fumble and interception to put together a dominant performance, throwing two touchdowns and rushing for two more.
4. Los Angeles Chargers: Justin Herbert (Last Week #6)
The numbers aren’t gaudy, but it is clear that Justin Herbert has a fantastic understanding of Harbaugh’s system, and he excels in it.
3. Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow (Last Week #8)
Joe Burrow put on a clinic with 428 yards and four touchdowns, looking like he was on a mission. He connected with Chase on deep balls, threaded the needle, and kept the offense rolling right up until the final two-point conversion.
2. Kansas City Chiefs: Patrick Mahomes (Last Week #2)
It wasn’t Mahomes’ most explosive afternoon, but he still managed 266 yards and a touchdown and proved why he’s the standard at quarterback in the NFL today.
1. Baltimore Ravens: Lamar Jackson (Last Week #1)
When Lamar Jackson’s back is against the wall, he just seems to find another gear. Down 21-7, he came alive, throwing for four touchdowns and scrambling his way out of what looked like hopeless situations. He finished with another monster stat line, 25 for 33, 290 yards, and four touchdowns with no interceptions.
