Earl Morrall Division

13. Aaron Rodgers

Rodgers threw for more than 300 yards against the Bears, but the performance was brutal early on. That said, we all know the amount of talent in that right arm.

12. Eli Manning

Manning throws too many interceptions for a seasoned veteran, but he’s seventh in passing yardage with 1,984. With the talent New York has at receiver, look for Manning to continue slinging the ball.

John Brodie Division

11. Dak Prescott

Prescott has been the story of the season, and might spell the end of Tony Romo in Big D. Prescott isn’t going deep down the field, but he’s brutally efficient. Great looking rookie.

10. Kirk Cousins

Cousins had a bad start to the year, but he’s rallied to play some really nice football. the Redskins are 4-3, and Cousins has thrown for 1,996 yards while completing 68 percent of his throws. Perhaps getting a long-term deal after this season?
