12. Gardner Minshew (LW: 18)

Minshew had another good game on Sunday. Jacksonville has one of the more limited offensive supporting casts in football, and yet Minshew has 1,279 yards with nine touchdowns and one interception. Not bad.

11. Jared Goff (LW: 12)

Going by the box scores, Goff is having a decent year. He’s thrown for 1,649 yards, third-most in the league. However, his seven touchdowns being matched by seven interceptions tells a much different story. So does the 63.1 completion rate while only averaging 6.4yards per attempt. He hasn’t been awful by any means, but wildly inconsistent.

10. Carson Wentz (LW: 11)

Wentz looked more like himself on Sunday against the Jets, and that moves him into the top 10. The fourth-year man moved well in the pocket and while the numbers weren’t eye-popping, you could see the poise and playmaking ability that gives the Eagles a chance every Sunday.

9. Matthew Stafford (LW: 9)

Stafford is old hat for so many, but he’s putting together a fine campaign in Motown. The 31-year-old has totaled 1,122 passing yards on 8.0 yards per attempt with nine touchdowns in only four games. It’s not MVP stuff, but it’s a nice season.
