NFL Week 15 QB Power Rankings

Publish Date: 12/13/2023
Fact checked by: Simon Briffa

QB Power Rankings

Our week 15 Quarterback power rankings are based mainly on how you have played the last three weeks: who’s hot and who’s not? The NFL has seen a lot of backup Quarterbacks play this season, and yes, a backup can crack this list, and as you will see, some do. Remember, this is more of a what have you done for me lately list.

10) Jake Browning, Cincinnati Bengals

Browning has the Bengals back in playoff contention, and his performance at Jacksonville last Monday night was going to be hard to top by anybody; many thought that maybe it was a fluke, but on Sunday against a red-hot Colts team, he played well once again throwing for 275 yards and two touchdown passes. No, he is not Joe Burrow, but he is pretty good and gives the Bengals a shot to make the playoffs, at least.

9) Russell Wilson, Denver Broncos

Wilson hasn’t completely turned back the clock yet, but he is trending in the right direction. His ability to extend plays and hit big throws seems to be coming back, and with the Broncos defense rolling, Wilson should only get better. If Wilson becomes his old self again a deep playoff run is possible.

8) Tua Tagovaiola, Miami Dolphins

Once Tyrek Hill was out, Tua was not himself. Does that mean without Hill that Tua is no longer an elite quarterback. Probably not, but it does have you question if Coach McDaniel can call a productive offense without Hill.

7) Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles

Hurts has not been as good as he was last season, and in the previous two weeks, he has played ok but not good enough to beat two top defenses. His interceptions have gone up, and an injury may be his biggest issue right now.

6) Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills

Yes, Allen does turn the ball over too much, and to call him a gunslinger would be an understatement. With all that being said, he gives his team a chance to win almost any game they play in, and he showed that in the Bills’ huge win over the Kansas City Chiefs. he makes plays in big situations.

5) Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams

Stafford is a throwback quarterback, tough and gritty, and he makes plays that most others can’t make. He played well in the overtime loss to the Ravens and gives the Rams a chance in any game he plays in.

4) Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens

Jackson has not been consistently good this season, but he makes spectacular plays when his team needs them, as he did against the Rams last weekend. He still needs more playmakers, and the Ravens’ offense often struggles. But, with Jackson at the helm, the Ravens are in good hands.

3) Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs

Mahomes is dropping because of a front office that has let his receiver situation get out of control. It has led to frustration that boiled over in the Chiefs loss to the Bills. The Chiefs have more dropped passes than any team in football and those receivers are so bad that they can’t even lineup right.

2) Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys

Dak Prescott’s 0.370 adjusted EPA since week 7 is far and away the highest among quarterbacks.

Prescott should easily win the MVP award in a league where performance-driven measures play a pivotal role.

However, with games remaining against the Bills, Dolphins, and Lions for Prescott this season, his fate will remain uncertain: If he delivers several other San Fransisco level performance he can kiss the MVP be.

1) Brock Purdy, San Fransisco 49ers

Purdy has likely exceeded his own expectations during his career. Kyle Shanahan’s offense may not be entirely quarterback-proof, but it comes close.

Every human experiences setbacks at work; should Purdy have an off day at the office, Shanahan can spam Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey’s touch button until their explosion produces tremendous gains.

No one knows for sure how Purdy would perform in different circumstances; that’s something the offseason quarterback rankings will aim to address. No one has challenged his efficiency this season. Brock Purdy has elite talent, whether you want to believe it or not.
