Week 10 is in the books in the NFL. Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson set the stage on Thursday night by lighting the world on fire. While there were a few solid performances over the weekend, the rest of the league did not exactly follow suit.
Fortunately, we were treated to several one-score games that truly went down to the wire. The quarterback play was great in some of those games and not so great in others (think Vikings vs. Jaguars).
As we head into Week 11, the playoff push is in full swing. Playoff seeding will start to firm up in the coming weeks and several teams will have hard decisions to make as they see their hopes dwindle. Let’s go ahead and check out where the quarterbacks stand who will be leading those charges.

1. Lamar Jackson - Baltimore Ravens
At this point, is there anything that Jackson can do to lose himself the MVP award? Jackson threw another four touchdown passes in Week 10 and is on pace for career-high passing numbers across the board. Oh, and he is still on pace for 915 rushing yards.
2. Joe Burrow - Cincinnati Bengals
Burrow continues to be incredible in 2024. However, it has not been enough for the Bengals to enjoy high-end success. Burrow and Lamar Jackson had a duel for the ages on Thursday Night Football that saw Burrow throw for four touchdowns. He is well on his way to an incredible season despite the lack of wins.
3. Patrick Mahomes - Kansas City Chiefs
How do the Chiefs keep doing it? This team continues to find ways to win in crunch time. Mahomes was solid throughout the game despite being pressured constantly. In the end, winners simply know how to win.

4. Josh Allen - Buffalo Bills
Allen was not at his best in Week 10. However, Allen’s “down” game was enough to propel the Bills to a 10-point win over the Indianapolis Colts. As the playoff race heats up, keep an eye on Allen’s turnovers as he has now thrown four interceptions in the last three games.
5. Brock Purdy - San Francisco 49ers
Purdy was one of the best quarterbacks in the league in Week 10. He threw for 353 yards and two touchdowns. He carved up the Buccaneers. The 49ers are gaining momentum and will go as far as their quarterback will take them.
6. Jalen Hurts - Philadelphia Eagles
Hurts was solid in a Week 10 rout of the Cowboys. While he did not have the unbelievable games he has been having of late, he managed to rush for another two touchdowns and bulldozed his way in on one of them. It’s time people paid attention to the Eagles as legitimate contenders once again.
7. Jared Goff - Detroit Lions
How does one throw five interceptions and still win? The Lions slugged their way to an ugly win over the Texans in Week 10. Goff completed 50% of his passes with two touchdowns and five interceptions. The Lions got a bit lucky in this one, but like the Chiefs, it just goes to show that winners know how to win.
8. Jayden Daniels - Washington Commanders
Daniels had what can be described as the first bad game of his career. His QBR of 36.3 was poor and he only completed 50% of his passes. A couple of drops and a continuous number of handoffs at the 1-yard line did not help Daniels’ stat line in the end. However, he did not fully step up to transcend the Steelers’ excellent defense in Week 10.
9. Justin Herbert - Los Angeles Chargers
Herbert ended his streak of four straight 200+ yard passing games, but his QBR of 84.9 against the Titans in Week 10 was virtually flawless. This Chargers team is formidable. If it wasn’t for the Chiefs, they would be leading the AFC West.
10. Russell Wilson - Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers have figured out how to use Wilson the same way he was used in Seattle. Give him a good running game and ask him to make one or two big plays throughout a game and you can win a lot of football games with Wilson behind center. Wilson led another one of his infamous go-ahead drives to beat the Commanders and move the Steelers to 7-2.
11. Kyler Murray - Arizona Cardinals
Murray put on a vintage performance in Week 10. The Jets defense that was once so formidable has faltered since the firing of head coach Robert Saleh. Murray took advantage and showed everyone that he is still a franchise quarterback. Watch out for the Cardinals.

12. Kirk Cousins - Atlanta Falcons
Cousins has been inconsistent in 2024. The highs are so high and the lows can be very low. Cousins threw for 306 yards in Week 10, but he threw an interception and had two fumbles that were luckily recovered.
13. C.J. Stroud - Houston Texans
Stroud desperately needs Nico Collins back in the lineup. Still, the collapse by the Texans in Week 10 is incredibly notable. Stroud has not been able to elevate his team in 2024 the same way that other elite quarterbacks do. Sometimes it is hard to remember that this is his second year.
14. Baker Mayfield - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Mayfield was quiet statistically in Week 10. However, he made several improbable plays in an act of will to try and win the Buccaneers this game against the 49ers. Mayfield desperately needs Mike Evans back in the lineup to receive any help on the outside. His wish should be granted in Week 12 after the bye.
15. Tua Tagovailoa - Miami Dolphins
Tagovailoa was finally able to guide the Dolphins to a win and keep their playoff hopes alive. He threw for 207 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Tagovailoa has been a welcome sight for an offense that has been awful without him this season. In an AFC that is not as strong as it has been in recent years, this team has a chance to get right back into the mix.
16. Sam Darnold - Minnesota Vikings
Darnold had a rough game in Week 10, but he was bailed out by an even rougher game by the opposing quarterback. Darnold threw for 241 yards, but his three red-zone interceptions were a serious damper on the Vikings’ chances. The Vikings got lucky in this game.
17. Jordan Love - Green Bay Packers
Love needed the Week 10 bye to get healthy. He has turned the ball over constantly in 2024 and his injuries have not helped him play at the high level we know he is capable of. He will look to get back on track in Week 11 in Chicago.
18. Matthew Stafford - Los Angeles Rams
Stafford had a down game in Week 10 against the Miami Dolphins. The Rams had a golden opportunity to stay at or near the top of the NFC West but they only managed to score 15 points. Stafford will look to rebound in Week 11 against a much easier Patriots defense.
19. Geno Smith - Seattle Seahawks
Smith is coming off one of his worst games of the season in which he threw three interceptions. Hopefully, the Seahawks fixed a few things over the bye week and will come out ready to roll against the 49ers in Week 11.
20. Aaron Rodgers - New York Jets
Rodgers has been inconsistent in 2024. He only threw for 151 yards, and he lost a fumble in Week 10. The Cardinals punched the Jets in the mouth and never looked back. With the season going as poorly as it is, the question is whether Rodgers will call it quits after this season.
21. Bo Nix - Denver Broncos
Going toe-to-toe with the league’s most talented quarterback in Patrick Mahomes is sure to grant you points on this list. Nix is starting to look more and more comfortable with each passing week. He threw for 215 yards and had another multiple-touchdown game in Week 10.
22. Drake Maye - New England Patriots
Maye is starting to look like a future stud. His Week 10 statistics do not pop, but he managed a solid QBR of 67.5. The Patriots took down a flailing Bears team and look like they are building a real foundation.

23. Derek Carr - New Orleans Saints
No weapons? No problem. Carr and the Saints got things done against a solid Atlanta Falcons team in Week 10. Carr threw for 269 yards and two touchdowns. He also did not commit any turnovers. Despite being down wide receivers Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed, Carr stepped up in a big way for his team.
24. Caleb Williams - Chicago Bears
Williams has easily been the worst of the first-round quarterbacks from April’s draft. Many of the flaws that pundits saw coming into the season are now rearing their heads. However, the Bears are also failing Williams. They do not seem to be installing a scheme that is working for him.
25. Mac Jones - Jacksonville Jaguars
For much of Week 10 against the Vikings, Jones looked closer to his rookie self as opposed to the version of himself that was cast away by the Patriots this offseason. Unfortunately, his three turnovers in the final quarter showed us why the Patriots cut bait. Jones likely single-handedly lost the Jaguars this game.
26. Will Levis - Tennessee Titans
Levis was back in the driver’s seat in Week 10 and looked ok. He threw for 175 yards and two touchdowns. Most importantly, he did not turn the ball over for the first time this season. Although Levis’s efforts occurred in a loss, the Titans will hope to see more performances like this in the future.
27. Jameis Winston - Cleveland Browns
Winston exits the Browns' Week 10 bye holding onto the starting quarterback position. He has brought a solid spark to the offense that the injured Deshaun Watson never had. He will look to continue chucking the ball down the field in Week 11 in New Orleans.
28. Bryce Young - Carolina Panthers
Young seems poised to remain the starter in Carolina for the time being. He has played smarter football over the last couple of weeks and the Panthers have ridden Chuba Hubbard along the way. The Panthers are still likely to be in the market for a quarterback in April. However, Young could make that decision harder if he continues to play solid ball.
29. Cooper Rush - Dallas Cowboys
Rush was certifiably awful in Week 10. He lost two fumbles and only threw for 45 yards. The Cowboys’ performance was almost laughable and there is not much else to say about them at this point.
Cooper Rush got a fan in me for life if he gets the Cowboys inside a top 5 pick😁 https://t.co/YdCfUEDYUz pic.twitter.com/VebpyNS9ER

30. Daniel Jones - New York Giants
Jones found the end zone with his legs in Week 10, but he threw two interceptions as the Giants fell to the Carolina Panthers. Ironically, the loss helps the Giants gain positioning to select Jones’ replacement in April’s draft. Unfortunately, Jones has lost all the momentum he had started to gain early in the season with wide receiver Malik Nabers.
31. Joe Flacco - Indianapolis Colts
Joe Flacco seems to be trying to lose this job. He threw three horrible interceptions in a loss to the Bills in Week 10. Flacco has failed to jump start the offense and seems poised to hand this job back over to Anthony Richardson with more performances like this.
32. Gardner Minshew II - Las Vegas Raiders
Minshew and the Raiders had a bye in Week 10, so NFL fans were not subjected to the horrible play of Minshew. Minshew still has the starting job, but it feels like it is only a matter of time before that slips away.
