Rich Gannon Division

15. Drew Brees

14. Russell Wilson

13. Peyton Manning

Manning shot up the rankings after finally putting together a good showing last week in primetime against the Detroit Lions. Manning was able to hit on a pair of deep balls while throwing for a pair of touchdowns and more than 300 yards. The arm still looks wobbly, but the results were solid.

12. Andrew Luck

Luck needs to get better if the Indianapolis Colts are going to make a serious run. Yes, his offensive line is awful, but seven interceptions is deplorable. Luck has been forcing far too many passes. If history is an indication, Luck will get rolling.

Drew Bledsoe Division

11. Tyrod Taylor

10. Eli Manning

9. Matthew Stafford

At what point are people going to start questioning whether Stafford is an elite quarterback? Stafford has incredible receivers in Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate, but struggles massively to beat the best teams in the league.

Roman Gabriel Division

8. Marcus Mariota

7. Derek Carr

Warren Moon Division

6. Philip Rivers

5. Andy Dalton

Dalton took all kinds of heat throughout the offseason, and it was justified. However, Dalton has come out firing through the first three weeks, keeping the Cincinnati Bengals undefeated while throwing for 866 yards with eight touchdowns and one interception.

4. Carson Palmer

3. Matt Ryan

Joe Montana Division

2. Aaron Rodgers

Rodgers might be unstoppable. Against the Chiefs on Monday night, Rodgers took apart one of the best defenses in the game for more than 300 yards and five touchdowns. If the Packers kept the foot on the gas pedal, it could have been worse. So far: 10 touchdowns, zero interceptions.

1. Tom Brady

Everybody who can’t stand the New England Patriots is clicking out of the article write now. Brady has been absolutely incredible, throwing for a league-high 1,112 yards with nine touchdowns and no interceptions. It must be fun to watch Roger Goodell take in a Patriots game.
