20. Mitchell Trubisky (LW: 23)

Trubisky is inconsistent, but the flashes are beginning to show up more and more. The Bears hammered the Lions, and the second-year man went for 355 yards and three touchdowns. If Chicago gets that type of production from Trubisky on a weekly basis, it’ll be a player come January.

19. Baker Mayfield (LW: 22)

Alright, we see you, Baker. Mayfield was phenomenal against the Falcons on Sunday afternoon, not throwing an incompletion until the third quarter. At game’s end, Mayfield threw for three touchdowns while completing 17-of-20 for 216 yards. It was the best showing of his young career, giving hope to those on Lake Erie.

18. Andy Dalton (LW: 16)

Dalton just has to be better. Yes, A.J. Green isn’t there, but that’s no excuse for only scoring 14 points against a Saints team that has one of the league’s worst defenses. Dalton has long endured the rap of being bad against good teams in big spots, and that continued on Sunday.

17. Dak Prescott (LW: 18)

Prescott is never going to be the guy who throws for 4,500 yards and 35 touchdowns, but he’s efficient and on time when going good. On Sunday night, with the Cowboys needing a win, he was exactly that with 270 yards and a touchdown with no turnovers, despite constantly being under duress.
