Vince Evans Division

25. Brock Osweiler

The Texans beat the Colts on Sunday, but it wasn’t because of their quarterback. Osweiler had 147 passing yards and another interceptions (his 14th) against a horrendous defense.

24. Tyrod Taylor

Taylor has really fallen off in recent weeks. He struggled in a win over Jacksonville a few games ago and looked average until garbage time against the Steelers. He’ll be a free agent soon.

Neil O’Donnell Division

23. Carson Wentz

Wentz might be good in the future, but he has been dismantled since starting 3-0. The Eagles have to be concerned about his regression.

22. Sam Bradford

The Vikings have no offense, and part of the problem remains Bradford’s refusal to throw downfield. At 6.92 yards per attempt, he’s not scaring any defense.

21. Cam Newton

Yes, Newton was the 2015 MVP. This year? He’s awful. Newton’s 53.5 completion percentage ranks dead last of any qualifying quarterback. It’s been ugly, and maybe telling of what is to come.

20. Carson Palmer

There has been talk Palmer could retire after this season. Maybe he should after what has been a horrid campaign. He’s 26th in completion rate (60.9) and has 13 inteerceptions.

19. Trevor Siemian

Siemian has thrown for 300+ yards in each of his last two games. The Broncos have a decent quarterback, who’s being submarined by the lack of help around him.

Jeff Hostetler Division

18. Joe Flacco

The yardage has been there, but Flacco is throwing too many interceptions and missing ample open receivers. He needs to improve if Baltimore is going to reach the postseason.

17. Eli Manning

Manning makes you pull hair out. He throws three passes every game that either are or should be picked off. Then, he turns around and threads a beautiful touchdown throw. Make of that what you will.
