NFL QB Rankings Week 9: Joe Burrow cracks the top five, Brady still dominant
Here are the NFL QB rankings for Week 9.
There is some stiff competition heading into Week 9, and there are a few QBs who may see themselves hoisting up an MVP trophy when the season comes to a close. Although Brady and Stafford remain near the top of the list, there have been some shakeups to the bottom of the top five.
Here are the top five QB rankings for Week 9.
Week 9 QB Rankings: Top 5
#5 - Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals
It may be time to start putting more respect on Joe Burrow's name. Although the Bengals oddly lost to the Jets on Sunday, Burrow has been steadily putting up good numbers.
He currently ranks 6th with 2,215 yards, 3rd with 20 passing TDs, and has a 108.0 passer rating, only trailing behind Tom Brady by a small margin.
Burrow has steadily gotten better this season, and he could very well take his team to the playoffs, should he remain this good in the passing game. The Bengals losing to the Jets was an isolated incident, and Burrow should have no problems ushering in more wins for his team.
#4 - Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys
Even with Dak Prescott being injured, he still remains one of the top five QBs in the entire league. Although his yardage has taken a bit of a dive because of the week off, he still has 1,813 yards. His 16 TD passes trail Kyler Murray by one, and his passer rating of 115 is still 3rd best in the entire league.
Even with missing a game due to injury, he still holds his place in the top areas of stats amongst all QBs. That is impressive. Dak got some much-needed rest and should have no issues with bouncing back this week.
