Now that Week 3 is about over, the first month of football is already nearing its end. Up to this point, there really have not been a ton of major surprises. The league is shaking out as expected, and in the coming weeks, that becomes even more true.
And as we all know, no team in the NFL is going to consistently win without competent quarterback play. Many teams in the NFL can say the have competent QB play, but others struggle and have continued to struggle.
Now that Week 3 is about over, let's dive into our latest QB power rankings. We are ranking these QBs based on what we have seen from them this year, while also looking at the overall team success as well.
Updated NFL QB Power Rankings following Week 3 action
32. Cam Ward, Tennessee Titans
I understand that this is a new offense for Cam Ward, but he and the Tennessee Titans just look… bad.
They don’t look or feel like an NFL team. They managed to score just seven points against New York in Week 3 and are now 0-3 on the season. Ward played reasonably well last year given the circumstances, and did begin to play well down the stretch during his rookie season.
Much of that modest progress from year one does not feel like it carried over into year two thus far. I guess a little win here is that Ward was 23/36 passing, which isn’t bad, but he only managed 181 yards.
The Titans had more total yards, passing yards, and more yards per play than the Giants and otherwise outplayed them on offense, but it just wasn’t good enough. I was high on Ward going into the season, but I might have totally whiffed on that stance.
31. Case Keenum, Chicago Bears
Good for Case Keenum, man. The Chicago Bears totally blew out Philadelphia on Monday Night Football, and Keenum had himself a rock-solid performance. He comes in at No. 31 in our power rankings, as I do have to wonder if there was a sort of 'honeymoon' vibe with this game. I am not sure Keenum is going to be able to keep this Bears team on the winning track as long as Caleb Williams is out, but MNF had to have felt good for him and the franchise.
