8. Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys

Dak Prescott has been fine, this year, I suppose. He's far from the issue in Dallas, as the Cowboys defense is again playing horrific football. The offense will end up being just fine, as Prescott is more than capable of leading this unit to one of the best scoring groups in the NFL.

Prescott has 10 touchdown passes against five interceptions this year. He has a solid 90.1 passer rating and an encouraging 75.5 QBR. As long as Prescott is able to play his game, he'll be efficient and put up good numbers.

7. Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams

The entirety of the Los Angeles Rams have regressed this year. Matthew Stafford has 11 touchdown passes against six interceptions this year, and it feels like the Rams get into this mode where they're constantly 'pressing' and feeling like they need to throw the ball all over the place.

Stafford already has 249 passing attempts this year, which averages out to be nearly 42 pergame. In his 2025 MVP season, he thre eight interceptions all year and had a 109.2 passer rating.

This year, he's already thrown six interceptions, which puts him on pace for 17 this year, and his passer rating is down to 91.7. It's been a rather rough year for Stafford and the Rams thus far.

6. Tyler Shough, New Orleans Saints

The New Orleans Saints have had some defensive issues this year, but second-year QB Tyler Shough looks the part. he has 12 touchdown passes this year against five interceptions, completing a healthy 65.1 percent of his passes. The Saints getting encouraging play from their QB and shaky play from the defense is much better than the alternative.

Shough is No. 6 in our power rankings and appears to be trending toward being 'the guy' for the Saints long-term. He's certainly still having some development left, but the results this year have been right where they need to be.

5. Jordan Love, Green Bay Packers

It's been a very interesting season for the Green Bay Packers. Jordan Love has definitely played well, though. He is completing less than 60 percent of his passes, but he's thrown 11 touchdown passes this year and is turning into the Packers offense. The overall lack of a run game thus far has put a lot more pressure on Love, and he's produced, coming in at No. 5 in our NFC QB rankings.
