QB Duds

Ben Roethlisberger-Pittsburgh Steelers: Big Ben went down with a big injury in St. Louis and he may be done for a while.  He completed 20 of 24 passes for 192 yards with an interception before leaving, and both his fantasy owners and Steelers fans are hoping for the best.

Colin Kaepernick-San Francisco 49ers: Kaepernick was a mess on Sunday throwing for just 67 yards while completing nine of his 19 pass attempts.  He threw no touchdowns and four interceptions against Arizona although he did run a score in while adding 46 yards rushing.

Sep 27, 2015; East Rutherford, NJ, USA; Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford (7) attempts a pass against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium. The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New York Jets 24-17. Mandatory Credit: Steven Ryan-USA TODAY Sports

Sam Bradford-Philadelphia Eagles: The Eagles got their first win, but Bradford’s numbers weren’t good at all.  He threw for just 118 yards completing 14 of his 28 passes including a touchdown.

Teddy Bridgewater-Minnesota Vikings: Bridgewater and the Vikings are 2-1, but the second-year QB’s numbers weren’t good this week against San Diego.  He finished with just 121 yards passing and an interception, but the team won comfortably behind a big game from Adrian Peterson.
