NFL quarterback rankings, Week 15: Drew Lock beckons
Earl Morrall Division
12. Tom Brady (LW: 10)
Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time. He’s also having a bad season. While it’s true the Patriots aren’t providing much help for him, Brady is also struggling. He’s not as mobile within the pocket, a longtime staple of No. 12. In his loss to Kansas City, Brady completing 19-of-36 throws for 169 yards with a touchdown and interception. Ugly.
11. Dak Prescott (LW: 8)
Remember when Prescott was an MVP candidate? Good times. The four-year starter struggled against the Bears on Thursday night, racking up most of his yardage in garbage time. By and large, Prescott fit right in with the rest of his teammates, looking dazed and confused.
10. Ryan Tannehill (LW: 13)
When did Tannehill become a franchise-level quarterback? Since he’s taken over for the Titans. The veteran has thrown for 1,993 yards and 15 touchdowns, doing so on 9.8 YPA. Tannehill having a resurgence of this magnitude wasn’t expected, but it has been fun to watch.
9. Jimmy Garoppolo (LW: 11)
Garoppolo had his finest hour on Sunday in a rollicking 48-46 win over the Saints in the Superdome. In a critical contest, Garoppolo threw for 349 yards and four touchdowns (10.0 YPA) to bring the 49ers back from the brink on multiple occasions. A great effort.
