2022 NFL Week 14 QB Power Rankings Joe B

  • Nothing steers NFL teams quite like quarterbacks. It's po sible, not probable, to win in spite of them. It's preferable, not easy, to land the best of them. They are, more than anyone else, the ones who shape the football landscape, week in and week out.That's why we're ranking all 32 starting signal-callers throughout the 2022 season: to take stock of the most important players in the game, sorting everyone from the bona fide superstars to the QBs who might be worth replacing.While these rankings don't nece sarily reflect which QBs we'd rather have for the remainder of the year (or their career) -- for example, we still trust over, say, -- they are designed to showcase which ones are performing and positioned best at this moment. Now, without further ado, our Week 14 pecking order:Week 14 QB Power Rankings1 Kansas City Chiefs QB The only way he won't hit 40 TD pa ses is if the are resting starters at the end of the year. Sure, the remain an i sue for his squad. But Mahomes is the trustiest, savviest playmaker at the position. Even if Rod Carew Jersey the guy behind him is quickly making up ground in the MVP race ...2 Philadelphia Eagles QB If you wanted to give him the MVP over Mahomes, you'd be completely justified. He doesn't always throw it as much as the Chiefs superstar, but when he does, he's been just as accurate, dynamic and efficient this year. And then he's just a compact, nimble bulldozer on the ground.3 Cincinnati Bengals QB He is Kryptonite for the Chiefs, which is actually saying a lot. If it weren't for Hurts' dual-threat explosion, he'd be a fair 1B to Mahomes in the MVP race, too. There might not be another QB right now who's got a better feel for where the ball needs to go, especially on key downs.4 Buffalo Bills QB Reckle sne s has always been a part of his game; it's just more apparent this year, as the turnovers have piled up. With the curses come the ble sings, though, and he's still one of the most gifted gunslingers. Without his Jose Berrios Jersey cannon, they don't cruise past the to stay atop the East.5 Seattle Seahawks QB If you're still sleeping on him, it's time to wake up. The Seattle defense is so problematic he's required to create big plays every week, and he keeps delivering. The Comeback Player of the Year award should be his to lose. Now let's see about a little wild card run. (+1)6 Los Angeles Chargers QB Imagine if he played for the Chiefs or or , where even if the "D" can't get a stop, the offensive weaponry is healthy or the strategy is creative. Herbert's laser arm and pocket poise have helped him avoid sloppy, if sometimes inefficient, numbers for a .500 team. (+5)7 Dallas Cowboys QB All the boxes are being checked in Dallas, where he's enjoyed a supporting cast in tip-top shape and may have protection on the way. In seven games, he's almost had more TDs than and combined. Can he deliver when the lights are brightest? (+1)8 Miami Dolphins QB Skittishne s was on display against a real defense Robbie Grossman Jersey in San Francisco. Tua's definitely a resilient fella, and when his timing is right, he and their WR corps are dangerous. But now that one team has finally capitalized on underthrows/rushed decisions, how will he respond? (-1)9 Minnesota Vikings QB For all the ' succe s, Cousins has been pretty inconsistent; his nine picks are fifth-most in the NFL, and he's averaging fewer yards per attempt than , and Mac Jones. The flip side: he's often been money when it matters most for a complete team. (+1)10 Green Bay Packers QB With a bad thumb and bruised ribs, Rodgers sure has a lot of juice left in that arm, especially when is on the other end of his throws. Constantly working with moving parts, the typical efficiency just isn't there. But how can we count him out now that's he got a wideout? (+2)11 Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB The Bucs' Monday night win over the was such a microcosm of the season: saddled with ugly, sluggish game-planning, Brady hasn't been nearly as effective pushing the ball downfield. Clutch touch and precision remain in his repertoire, though, keeping the whole ship afloat. (+2)12 Jacksonville Jaguars QB fans should still be breathing sighs of relief after Lawrence avoided a serious injury despite an awkward sack against the . Drops killed his chance at sustaining offensive rhythm in Detroit. All in all, he's really improved situationally, and the arm stays live until the buzzer. (+2)13 Chicago Bears QB A tough a se sment, Fields has been a glorious revelation on the ground, where he's always capable of carrying the on his back, all the way to the end zone. And while he's taken steps as a pa ser in a shorthanded offense, he's also struggled to protect the ball down the stretch.14 Las Vegas Raiders QB Carr's standing is inflated by recent injuries to top-15 QBs like and . He's been streaky under Josh McDaniels. But his second half has been far more promising. Gritty until Zach Duke Jersey the finish, his connection with is certainly working. (+3)15 Detroit Lions QB There might not be a more underrated QB in terms of 2022 production. Goff has his limits when under pre sure, but he's been a decisive distributor for their a sortment of weapons, namely . There are shades of Chiefs-era here, for a spicy team. (+3)16 Tenne see Titans QB His dependence on , and lack of supplemental help up front or out wide, was exacerbated by monster showing for the in Week 13's drubbing. The guy can play. But all indications are he needs a 49ers-level setup Jake Odorizzi Jersey to warrant January trust.17 New York Giants QB Two things can be true: 1.) Jones is much improved and a proven threat with his legs; 2.) Jones has neither the staff's trust nor the adequate personnel to win through the air. In other words, we don't envy the having to make a long-term ruling on the former first-rounder. (+2)18 Arizona Cardinals QB What can the do to maximize Murray's athletic gifts? Unfortunately that probably can't be answered until the offseason, when big decisions can occur at head coach, general manager, etc. But Murray can do his part by proving a more even-keeled leader down the stretch. (+2)19 Cleveland Browns QB Two years away from the game will give you some rust, and boy did he have it in his Houston homecoming, which was salvaged only by the defense. More reps will inevitably unlock some of Watson's former pocket presence, but this is a work in progre s. (-4)20 Washington Commanders QB Fiery. Fearle s. Feisty. All good words to describe the QB, who's officially earned the indefinite QB1 gig over . There's just no dancing around the fact he's also relatively scattershot as a pa ser. He's wild card-caliber, for sure. But beyond that? Unclear.
