NFL quarterback rankings, Week 6: Derek Carr makes a statement
50. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Matthew Stafford. 18. player. QB. Detroit Lions
2020 stats: 1,017 yards | 60.6 completion % | 8 TDs | 3 INTs | 7.4 YPA | 62.3 QBR
Last Week: 19
If the Lions are going to come out of their bye week with any intentions of getting back in the NFC playoff picture, Stafford needs to be better. Detroit essentially needs an MVP-type campaign, which frankly, might be a tall order.
player. Pick Analysis. QB. Justin Herbert. 17. Scouting Report. Los Angeles Chargers. 13
2020 stats: 1,195 yards | 72.0 completion % | 9 TDs | 3 INTs | 8.7 YPA | 73.0 QBR
Last Week: 20
Herbert is clearly going to be a star, if he isn’t already. The Oregon product was largely thought to be overdrafted at No. 6 overall, but he’s proven all the idiots (Idiot #1 right here) wrong. He’s got a great arm, accuracy, mobility and the toughness to stand in and take a shot.
16. player. 47. Scouting Report. QB. New England Patriots. Cam Newton. Pick Analysis
2020 stats: 718 yards | 68.1 completion % | 2 TDs | 2 INTs | 7.8 YPA | 58.2 QBR
Last Week: 14
After two weeks away, Newton should come back fresh and ready to face a lacking Broncos defense. The Patriots don’t expect Newton to throw for 4,500 yards, they simply need him to make the necessary plays, create a few big runs and avoid turnovers. So far, so good.
15. Pick Analysis. QB. Arizona Cardinals. Kyler Murray. player. 32. Scouting Report
2020 stats: 1,299 yards | 69.6 completion % | 8 TDs | 6 INTs | 7.2 YPA | 73.8 QBR
Last Week: 16
After a pair of terrible weeks, Murray bounced back for 380 yards against the Jets in a must-win. The youngster pushed the ball downfield a bit more, hitting on four passes of 20+ air yards, including a touchdown.
Pick Analysis. Carolina Panthers. 87. Scouting Report. QB. Teddy Bridgewater. 14. player
2020 stats: 1,460 yards | 73.0 completion % | 6 TDs | 3 INTs | 8.2 YPA | 76.0 QBR
Last Week: 15
Bridgewater has played conservative football, but his weapons are making plays and the veteran quarterback is avoiding big mistakes. Additionally, Bridgewater is getting the ball out quick, ranking sixth with 2.55 seconds per dropback before throwing.
