By QBR:

1). Russell Wilson (no surprise)
2). Dak Prescott (I guess McCarthy isn't that bad of a coach..)
3). Stafford (Yeah, he is better than we all thought he was)
4). Kyler Murray (Coming into his own and now at an elite level)
5). Brady (old man still balling, 15 TDs, 2 INTs)

Other notables:
8). Mahomes (crowned a little too early IMO)
14). Rodgers (better if you don't count week 1, but he's lost a little. Will probably ball this week vs Bears as a farewell)
21). Roethlisberger (stick a fork in him, but a HOFer for sure)
-none of the rookies doing anything spectacular.

Amazing what a good offensive line and good receivers can do for a QB.

GROUND AND POUND

I looked at the Bear O lineman and the lightest guy they have up front is listed at 316 pounds. Bears have a Lot of BEEF up front. And O lineman have to love firing out into the D lineman and attack so they got to love run blocking to get their juices flowing.

Most of those top 5 QBs on the list had "meh" rookie/first year campaigns if you're strictly using their QBR.
Well then they likely wouldnt have been on this top 5 list when they were rookies

Meh. I'm not a big fan of QBR. I get what they are trying to do by combining rushing, passing efficiency and strength of schedule, but they end up adding more variables that make the comparisons hard. There were entire seasons where QBR would have you believe that RG3 or Tim Tebow were better than Rodgers or Manning. Just stuff like that make no sense.

The below is from 2015. Just walk through the stat line and try to figure out how after 8 games Fitz > Goat?

Personally I like QB Rating. I'm not saying it's better, but it's a good proxy for passing efficiency. I also think there are certain historic performances where the rating aligned with the results, that make me feel it's more or less a solid number to use.

Rodgers hasn't lost anything lol, he just hasn't hit his stride yet this season, he will be am MVP candidate after these next two weeks.

mccarthy is not a bad coach? Maybe it has to do with the fact they got Ceedee Zeke Amari Gallup Schultz and an OL that is top 5 in the league ?
