QB. Teddy Bridgewater. 18. player. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Carolina Panthers. 87

2020 stats: 2,522 yards | 72.1 completion % | 13 TDs | 7 INTs | 7.7 YPA | 73.6 QBR

Last Week: 16

Bridgewater is playing well, but he struggled after a hot start against the Buccaneers before leaving with a knee injury. The veteran had only a single completion beyond 10 air yards and threw a deep pick. Bridgewater is at his best when he can manage the game.

Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Matthew Stafford. player. 50. QB. Detroit Lions. 17

2020 stats: 2,403 yards | 63.7 completion % | 17 TDs | 7 INTs | 7.7 YPA | 66.4 QBR

Last Week: 19

Stafford hit a pair of gorgeous deep throws for touchdowns in the win over Washington, while keeping everything else short and around the scrimmage line. The Lions are 4-5 and if they’re going to make a run, it’ll be with Stafford getting red hot.

player. 56. Joe Burrow. QB. Cincinnati Bengals. 16. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

2020 stats: 2,485 yards | 65.4 completion % | 12 TDs | 5 INTs | 6.7 YPA | 59.1 QBR

Last Week: 15

Burrow got baptized on Sunday in Pittsburgh. The Steelers smothered his receivers and pressured him quickly, forcing 19 misfires on 40 attempts. Burrow did well to avoid turnovers, but with the Bengals needing a career day, the rookie fell far short of the threshold.

Philip Rivers. 15. 46. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. player. QB. Indianapolis Colts

2020 stats: 2,395 yards | 68.7 completion % | 11 TDs | 7 INTs | 7.7 YPA | 63. QBR

Last Week: 17

Rivers isn’t asked to do much for the Colts. On Thursday in the win over Tennessee, it was much of the same. The 38-year-old was throwing underneath with the occasional mid-range shot off play-action. It’s not flashy, but Indianapolis is 6-3 and in first place.

QB. Baltimore Ravens. Pick Analysis. Lamar Jackson. 14. player. 26. Scouting Report

2020 stats: 1,762 yards | 64.0 completion % | 14 TDs | 5 INTs | 7.1 YPA | 65.4 QBR

Last Week: 12

Jackson slides another two spots. Yes, his legs are dynamic and his ability to alter the game rivals almost anybody. However, the numbers don’t lie. Neither do the charts. The ball isn’t getting deep or outside the numbers (with any meaningful yardage) consistently. If the Ravens are going to improve, Jackson must lead the way.
