28. Devlin Hodges (LW: 29)

Hodges is becoming a cult hero in Pittsburgh. Three wins for him, and the Steelers are in contention for a playoff spot. All that said, let’s not get carried away. He’s managing the game and doing little else.

27. Mitch Trubisky (LW: 27)

Trubisky has been better over the past two games, but he’s still having a poor campaign. The third-year man has thrown for 16 touchdowns and throwing for a paltry 6.2 yards per attempt.

26. Ryan Fitzpatrick (LW: 25)

Fitzpatrick has thrown 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. If that’s not FitzMagic to the hilt, nothing is.

25. Drew Lock (LW: 31)

Lock says hello! After a middling start against the Chargers, the rookie lit up the Texans for 309 yards and three touchdowns on a whopping 11.4 YPA. If he can continue thriving, this season will be a raving success for Denver despite its record.

24. Andy Dalton (LW: 24)

Dalton threw for 262 yards and an interception in the Bengals’ 27-19 loss to the Browns. Nothing special, but better than anything Ryan Finley was doing.

23. Gardner Minshew (LW: 23)

Minshew struggled against Los Angeles, throwing for 162 yards on 4.4 YPA. After starting the season on fire, Minshew has slowly regressed back to being a borderline starter.

22. Jacoby Brissett (LW: 22)

Brissett is the epitome of a guy. He’s not going to destroy your team’s chances, but he’s not winning a game for his team either.
