(+1) |
| 8 |
|

|
| We know Burrow has the “it” issue when the video games subject maximum, however his bid to outduel C.J. Stroud in Week 10 backfired overdue, with a compelled throw sealing a defeat. Still, he is thrown seven of his 14 TD passes within the remaining 3 video games by myself. (-3) |
| 10 |
|

Monday’s dissatisfied of the Bills was once a main instance, as he used his legs to arrange a jaw-dropping TD to Courtland Sutton and orchestrate a walk-off box objective. |
| 14 |
|
| We know he is resilient, and we all know he can hearth it to any place at the box. But his operation of the Jags offense, most likely in tandem with curious play-calling, has been a lot more horizontal than vertical in an asymmetric season. (-3) |

| 16 |
|
| With an every so often underwhelming setup and team of workers, Mayfield continues to stay the Bucs within the combine atop an unpleasant NFC South. He might not be the best of passers, however he is unquestionably controlling the ball greater than he incessantly does. (-2) |

| 18 |
|

|
| After a Week 9 absence and Week 10 bye, the growing older gunslinger is not off course to go back from harm. He’s been hit and miss at the back of the Rams O-line when lively, suffering to seek out the tip zone in spite of a competent pass-catching team. (-3) |
| 21 |
|

| 22 |
|

| 23 |
|

| 24 |
|

| 25 |
|

But for now, if the wins stay rolling in, possibly it is excellent sufficient. |
| 27 |
|
| Whether it is he or Desmond Ridder within the lineup, Arthur Smith can not seem to get the Falcons rolling as a passing offense. But that is no actual wonder; each Ridder and Heinicke check in as better-suited coming off the bench. (-3) |
| 28 |
|
| The stability is not there but, however it is a fourth-round rookie thrust right into a full-time gig beneath an intervening time trainer. What extra do we predict? He’s a minimum of proven a willingness to air it out and get Davante Adams concerned. (-1) |
| 29 |
|
| The velocity at which Young operates simply may not lower it when he is coping with such underwhelming offensive infrastructure. Can he adapt to grow to be extra satisfactory than adverse? Sure. But possibly now not in Week 11 in opposition to the Cowboys. (+1) |
