Ranking every starting quarterback, from 1-32
5 min read
As goes the quarterback, so goes the team. It’s not always true in the NFL, but it usually is. And it makes sense: In a passing league, the passers are like royalty — the biggest influences on whether a team is destined more for a Super Bowl title or a No. 1 draft pick.
It’s with that in mind that we come to you with the most important pecking order outside of traditional team power rankings: QB Power Rankings. Consider this your cut-and-dry guide to the best and worst of the NFL’s signal-callers — a weekly 1-to-32 rundown of every starter under center.
How are the QBs ranked? We try to factor in both current standing and future upside. So a long resume doesn’t always guarantee an edge over untapped potential, just as a cold streak doesn’t always erase a history of success. At the end of the day, we’re simply trying to sort the QBs based on 2021 value, both now and in the near future.
Riser of the Week: Matthew Stafford
Sean McVay’s buddy has slipped up several times in big spots this year, reverting to Lions form under the bright lights. But he stepped up in Arizona to close Week 14, out-dueling Kyler Murray to re-enter the MVP race. The Rams still have plenty to prove as they vie once more for an NFC West crown, but if Stafford can sling it like he did Monday night, they’ll be just fine.
