After a hot start to the season, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is struggling as his team needs him more than ever.
Our 2021 FanSided NFL quarterback rankings go live each Tuesday morning throughout the regular season, and we useĀ a sliding scale incorporating current and past performances, with the former meaning more as the year goes on.
2021 stats: 383 yards | 56.5 comp % | 1 TD | 3 INT | 5.6 YPA | 21.2 QBR
LW: NA
The Giants should force Glennon to hold a retirement press conference today, for his own good.
2021 stats: 1,539 yards | 58.0 comp % | 6 TD | 11 INT | 6.3 YPA | 24.8 QBR
LW: 32
Wilson isnāt in last place anymore! Heck, heās the best quarterback in his own city (for now).
2021 stats: 320 yards | 53.1 comp % | 2 TD | 5 INT | 6.5 YPA | 39.1 QBR
LW: NA
How Hill has remained on a quarterback depth chart this long, one can only imagine.
2021 stats: 1,017 yards | 64.1 comp % | 6 TD | 6 INT | 6.6 YPA | 39.8 QBR
LW: 28
Dalton canāt play anymore. He had a decent career, no shame in it, but heās ready for the rocking chair.

2021 stats: 289 yards | 55.8 comp % | 3 TD | 2 INT | 5.6 YPA | 35.2 QBR
LW: 29
If the Panthers were in contention, Newton might get benched. As things stand, makes sense to ride the nostalgia train for a month.
2021 stats: 966 yards | 60.7 comp % | 5 TD | 5 INT | 6.4 YPA | 38.3 QBR
LW: 24
The Texans have no shot, but benching Taylor for Davis Mills is insane. Houston desperately needs to upgrade this roster across the board.
2021 stats: 2,576 yards | 66.7 comp % | 13 TD | 7 INT | 6.5 YPA | 30.8 QBR
LW: 30
Goff played well against the Vikings, even making some tight-window throws. Hard not to be happy for Detroit after finally winning a game.
2021 stats: 2,514 yards | 58.0 comp % | 9 TD | 10 INT | 5.9 YPA | 33.8 QBR
LW: 26
Until the Jaguars get a real coaching staff itās impossible to evaluate Lawrence. That said, heās certainly disappointing thus far.
2021 stats: 2,758 yards | 64.8 comp % | 16 TD | 6 INT | 6.6 YPA | 44.4 QBR
LW: 25
Roethlisberger made like Peter Frampton and came alive in the fourth quarter to upset the Ravens. Overall, heās below-average, but a great quarter.
2021 stats: 253 yards | 81.5 comp % | 2 TD | 0 INT | 9.4 YPA | 77.1 QBR
LW: 19
Minshew could (and should) be starting somewhere. Heās better than about a third of the guys who start every week.
2021 stats: 2,413 yards | 62.2 comp % | 11 TD | 6 INT | 7.7 YPA | 37.9 QBR
LW: 22
Mayfield needs to come out of the bye and pay perhaps his best football with Baltimore coming to town on Sunday. Itās now or never.
2021 stats: 2,775 yards | 67.3 comp % | 16 TD | 7 INT | 7.3 YPA | 47.5 QBR
LW: 20
Bridgewater was intercepted twice against the Chiefs on Sunday night, and heās lucky it wasnāt four or five times.
2021 stats: 2,809 yards | 67.9 comp % | 18 TD | 11 INT | 7.1 YPA | 50.2 QBR
LW: 18
Heinicke did very little against the Raiders, but he also didnāt make a crushing mistake. Itās all he needs to do for Washington to win.
2021 stats: 1,945 yards | 70.9 comp % | 12 TD | 6 INT | 7.1 YPA | 58.1 QBR
LW: 21
Tagovailoa doesnāt make big plays, but heās avoiding errors and allowing Miamiās defense to beat bad teams. The Dolphins are being careful with him.
2021 stats: 2,914 yards | 68.1 comp % | 16 TD | 11 INT | 6.9 YPA | 47.9 QBR
LW: 17
Ryan has no chance. The Falcons canāt block, they have no above-average receivers, and the defense constantly has Atlanta trailing.
2021 stats: 2,641 yards | 66.8 comp % | 15 TD | 8 INT | 8.5 YPA | 56.4 QBR
LW: 15
Garoppolo threw a pair of interceptions in what was a crushing loss for San Francisco. The Niners need him to step up in Cincinnati this weekend.
2021 stats: 2,774 yards | 65.8 comp % | 14 TD | 13 INT | 7.1 YPA | 53.3 QBR
LW: 16
Tannehill should be getting Julio Jones back soon, and he needs him based on the rest of the depth chart. Itās been a struggle as of late.
2021 stats: 2,042 yards | 67.2 comp % | 14 TD | 4 INT | 7.9 YPA | 44.6 QBR
LW: 14
Wilson only moves back because of the movement around him. He played a decent game against San Francisco, but still only averaged 6.1 yards per attempt with an interception.
2021 stats: 2,948 yards | 63.3 comp % | 22 TD | 5 INT | 7.0 YPA | 58.6 QBR
LW:Ā 13
Wentz was asked to do very little against the Texans, but he executed. The Colts are 7-6 and heading into their bye with real playoff hopes.
2021 stats: 2,869 yards | 70.3 comp % | 16 TD | 8 INT | 7.5 YPA | 52.6 QBR
LW: 12
Um ā¦ not much to say.
2021 stats: 3,663 yards | 67.8 comp % | 17 TD | 9 INT | 8.1 YPA | 55.1 QBR
LW: 8
Carr needs to move back a few spots. The overall numbers are good, but he missed a litany of critical throws against Washington, and has had similar problems over the past month.
2021 stats: 3,135 yards | 68.3 comp % | 23 TD | 14 INT | 8.3 YPA | 48.8 QBR
LW: 11
Burrow played a fantastic game against the Chargers, despite a painful pinky injury. Even his interception should have been a long touchdown, bouncing off JaāMarr Chaseās hands.
2021 stats: 2,865 yards | 64.0 comp % | 16 TD | 13 INT | 7.6 YPA | 50.4 QBR
LW: 9
Jackson needs to be better. He threw a brutal pick to Minkah Fitzpatrick in the first quarter, costing Baltimore sure points. Over the last six weeks, heās thrown eight touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
2021 stats: 3,353 yards | 68.4 comp % | 25 TD | 3 INT | 7.5 YPA | 56.6 QBR
LW: 10
Cousins has actually played really well for the most part this season. Minnesotaā scheme and his down moments, however, have contributed to a very disappointing campaign.
2021 stats: 3,216 yards | 66.8 comp % | 26 TD | 10 INT | 7.5 YPA | 60.6 QBR
LW: 7
Allen did all he could on Monday night. He only completed half his throws, but he was attempting so serious degree of difficulty. Now, he has to be the leader Buffalo desperately needs.
2021 stats: 3,170 yards | 69.0 comp % | 23 TD | 8 INT | 7.6 YPA | 49.5 QBR
LW: 5
Prescott is having a terrific season, and the Cowboys will need him to be at his best come January. Thereās a chance he gets to 35 touchdown passes on the year.
2021 stats: 3,547 yards | 66.6 comp % | 27 TD | 11 INT | 7.5 YPA | 67.3 QBR
LW: 6
Herbert lit up the Bengals in a 41-point explosion, throwing a bevy of deep shots early to put Cincinnati in a hole. If the Chargers can be more consistent, theyāre very dangerous.
2021 stats: 3,384 yards | 64.6 comp % | 25 TD | 12 INT | 7.1 YPA | 56.6 QBR
LW: 3
Mahomes was 15-of-29 on Sunday night with an interception. However, the Chiefs had five comical drops including one which resulted in the pick. Mahomes was solid, but ultimate let down.
2021 stats: 3,611 yards | 66.7 comp % | 30 TD | 9 INT | 8.2 YPA | 66.0 QBR
LW: 4
Stafford got off the snide against the Jaguars, but now he faces the Cardinals on Monday night. Can the Rams, and Stafford, finally win a big game again?
2021 stats: 2,399 yards | 72.7 comp % | 19 TD | 7 INT | 8.9 YPA | 65.7 QBR
LW: NA
Murray came back after missing a month and immediately threw for two touchdowns before running in another couple of scores. Heās playing elite football, leading the Cards to the gameās best record.
2021 stats: 2,878 yards | 66.2 comp % | 23 TD | 4 INT | 7.7 YPA | 64.9 QBR
LW: 2
Rodgers is coming off the bye week trying to get healthier. Seeing the Bears at Lambeau Field on Sunday night should make the toe feel a bit better.
2021 stats: 3,771 yards | 68.3 comp % | 34 TD | 10 INT | 7.4 YPA | 66.1 QBR
LW: 1
Brady has to be a slight favorite to win MVP. Heās leading the league in yards and touchdown passes, and the Bucs have a real shot to win out.
