24. Baker Mayfield, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Baker Mayfield has already missed time this year and is also simply not playing well for the Tampa Buccaneers. He just isn’t. Mayfield had 243 passing yards and two interceptions on Sunday Night Football against Chicago, doing so on 18/32 passing. Mayfield has three passing touchdowns and four interceptions on the season and has not at all lived up to the recent contract extension he signed.
Sitting at 3-6, the Bucs are still well within the mix in the NFC South, which is bonkers, but that should not make the Bucs think that they should keep the status quo. This team is still, for the most part, poorly coached, as I am not sure Todd Bowles is the guy to continue leading this team.
Mayfield also takes part of the blame, too, as he’s not been good since 2024, really, and it is valid to wonder if Mayfield just isn’t capable of playing efficient enough football anymore with this franchise.
23. Cam Ward, Tennessee Titans
Cam Ward and the Tennessee Titans were on the bye in Week 9. Ward has been rather underwhelming this year, and I am not sure he has played all that well this year. The Titans sit at 1-7, and Ward has just six passing touchdowns this year against five interceptions.
At this point, the QB situation is far from solidified, and while Ward was the first overall pick, that really does not mean anything. If he can’t begin to stack some better performances after the bye, the Titans surely need to consider moving on and bringing in another QB.
It’s just been another year to forget for the franchise. The new coaching staff is very experienced, but that isn’t doing much at the moment. Ward is very clearly a bad, struggling QB, and it’s not gotten better in his second year.
He continues to be low in our power rankings.
