Roethlisberger missed 14 games last year, and he still looks rusty. The stats are alright, but the ball doesn’t have zip. Let’s hope that’s rust and not because he had elbow surgery and is now 38 years old. Roethlisberger hasn’t been bad, but average.
2020 stats: 786 yards | 66.4 completion % | 4 TDs | 5 INTs | 7.0 YPA | 75.3 QBR

Bad game for Murray this week. He did a nice job of hitting on downfield throws and attacking the perimeter as well as between the numbers, but three interceptions will undo the good. Murray looks like a star in the making, but the consistency isn’t quite there.
2020 stats: 753 yards | 65.1 completion % | 6 TDs | 3 INTs | 6.9 YPA | 45.3 QBR

Brady had a terrific week against the Broncos n a runaway victory. Many short throws, but Brady also found success on eight targets more than 15 yards, hitting on four of them. he also avoided interceptions and tossed three touchdowns. A quality outing for the GOAT.

Tannehill needs conditions around him to be right, which is why you can’t categorize him as elite. Still, he’s played well for the Titans, moving the ball well despite A.J. Brown’s recent absence. He’s also taking deep shots, something many believed he couldn’t do leaving Miami.
2020 stats: 792 yards | 67.4 completion % | 4 TDs | 3 INTs | 8.3 YPA | 64.9 QBR

You almost feel bad for Watson. He no longer has a legitimate No. 1 target, the play-calling is suspect and the offensive line is poor. He needs to throw the ball quicker, but Watson is a magician at keeping plays alive, throwing receivers open and making the tight-window pass. Yet, Houston is 0-3.
2020 stats: 961 yards | 62.5 completion % | 7 TDs | 2 INTs | 7.5 YPA | 65.8 QBR

Ryan falls three spots, and mostly because of his atrocious fourth quarter. Yes, the Falcons blew that lead as a collective, but Ryan needs to make a play or two to help a moribund defense. The numbers are largely good, but the film shows too many peaks and valleys.
