Reportedly, Minshew is being benched so Jacksonville can watch a competition between Mike Glennon and Jake Luton. Seriously. This is what tanking looks like.
2020 stats: 1,635 yards | 65.6 completion % | 12 TDs | 10 INTs | 8.7 YPA | 53.1 QBR

Cousins didn’t throw often against the Packers on Sunday’s windswept afternoon. When he did, the passes were hilariously short. However, he ascends two spots because Minshew is getting benched, Newton is washed and Ben DiNucci exists.
2020 stats: 1,760 yards | 58.6 completion % | 10 TDs | 10 INTs | 6.3 YPA | 50.3 QBR

What else is there to say? Two more interceptions, a few great throws and a ton of frustration. It never ends.
2020 stats: 1,096 yards | 67.1 completion % | 7 TDs | 5 INTs | 7.8 YPA | 62.5 QBR

Garoppolo looked injured all day in Seattle before leaving in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury. He’s never been elite, but he has arm talent. Right now, he can’t drive the ball because of his lower mechanics, and it’s making for a very rough watch.
2020 stats: 1,514 yards | 61.4 completion % | 15 TDs | 7 INTs | 6.8 YPA | 73.1 QBR

Yes, the weather was terrible in Cleveland. Guess what? It won’t be the last time we have wind and precipitation coming off Lake Erie. Mayfield needs to drive the ball better and make some tough throws on obvious throwing downs. Going 12-of-25 for 122 yards isn’t cutting it.
2020 stats: 2,106 yards | 71.6 completion % | 9 TDs | 6 INTs | 8.2 YPA | 68.1 QBR

Bridgewater is a game manager. Yeah, it’s a dreaded title, but it’s not all bad. He makes few big mistakes, completes a ton of passes and is a huge reason why D.J. Moore and Robby Anderson are having great seasons. The problem is too many plays are left on the field.
