I don’t know if we’ve ever seen the NFL have such a clear cut off from elite to average quarterbacks. This year it feels like there are 10-12 “guys” that can give you a chance to win every Sunday, but if you don’t have one of them, you’re probably not going to get very far unless you have an elite roster. Gone are the days of there being 15-20 solid quarterbacks in the NFL, and with the upcoming draft class looking like a bust, there might be a real quarterback issue in the NFL very soon.
But let’s not look into the future just yet. We’re focused on the present, and this year, there’s been a ton of shocking developments at the QB position. Here’s where all 32 NFL starting QBs rank heading into Week 7.

Kirko Chains has slowed down a bit after throwing three touchdowns in each of his first three games, but he still has five touchdown over the past three weeks while leading the Raiders to 24.7 PPG against Buffalo, New England and Kansas City. He is still the best option for this offense, even after this three-game losing streak.
