QB Index: Ranking every quarterback to start a game in 2019

The NFL's 100th season was a banner year for star quarterbacks. Patrick Mahomes achieved glory. Lamar Jackson dazzled. Russell Wilson ascended to another plane of excellence. Drew Brees and Tom Brady broke new ground for the 40-plus age bracket.

The QB Index loved it. But the QB Index also cares about EVERY quarterback -- not just the big names.

During the regular season, the QB Index provided a weekly 32-man snapshot of the 国产探花quarterback picture. But far more than 32 players attempted to man the most important position in sports in 2019. Fifty-seven quarterbacks, to be precise, started at least one game between Week 1 and Week 17. So, to put a final bow on the 2019 国产探花campaign, the QB Index expanded to provide one unified ranking of all of them.

NFL.com editors Ali Bhanpuri, Tom Blair, Gennaro Filice and Dan Parr created a composite ranking of all 57 quarterbacks, focusing on who had the best 2019 season, playoffs included. Past performances and future projections were not taken into account; rather, this list is meant to reflect where each QB stood in 2019 alone.

T-1
Lamar Jackson
Baltimore Ravens · QB

Individual Rank: Bhanpuri: 2 | Blair: 2 | Filice: 1 | Parr: 1

2019 regular season stats: 15 games | 66.1 pct | 3,127 pass yds | 7.8 ypa | 36 pass TD | 6 INT | 1,206 rush yds | 7 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Parr: The man I predicted to win MVP way back in August delivered a season for the ages, becoming the second unanimous vote-getter for the award in history. Put the highlight reel in the Louvre. Jackson made art in 2019.

T-1
Patrick Mahomes
Kansas City Chiefs · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 1 | Blair: 1 | Filice: 2 | Parr: 2

2019 regular season stats:聽14 games | 65.9 pct | 4,031 pass yds | 8.3 ypa | 26 pass TD | 5 INT | 218 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Parr:聽If you had to select one QB for one game, is anyone聽not聽picking Mahomes? The聽聽MVP's 2019 stat line would have been even more impressive if not for the dislocated kneecap that sidelined him around midseason (for only two games, somehow), but throw out the numbers and just watch him play. Yeah, we'll make room on the throne for Patrick.

3
Russell Wilson
Seattle Seahawks · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 3 | Blair: 3 | Filice: 3 | Parr: 3

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 66.1 pct | 4,110 pass yds | 8.0 ypa | 31 pass TD | 5 INT | 342 rush yds | 3 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Parr:聽DangeRuss was the MVP front-runner for much of the season. His second half wasn't as impressive as his first, but he still carried a team beat up on the offensive line and at running back late in the year all the way to a playoff win on the road, recording a passer rating of 100 or better in 60 percent of Seattle's games.

4
Drew Brees
New Orleans Saints · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 4 | Blair: 5 | Filice: 5 | Parr: 4

2019 regular season stats:聽11 games | 74.3 pct | 2,979 pass yds | 7.9 ypa | 27 pass TD | 4 INT | -4 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Parr:聽You didn't think a bum thumb would take down the guy they call Breesus, did you? The leader in career completion percentage had a furious finish to his age-40 regular season after missing five games due to the injury, finishing No. 3 in both ESPN's QBR and Pro Football Focus' passer rankings.

5
Deshaun Watson
Houston Texans · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 5 | Blair: 4 | Filice: 4 | Parr: 6

2019 regular season stats:聽15 games | 67.3 pct | 3,852 pass yds | 7.8 ypa | 26 pass TD | 12 INT | 413 rush yds | 7 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Parr:聽Watson had a few lulls in his 2019 campaign when he wasn't performing at the level of some of his red-hot competition among the NFL's elite tier of QB1s, but he went out in a blaze of glory. We'll never forget his epic Superman impersonation during a comeback against the gobsmacked聽聽in the Wild Card Round.

6
Ryan Tannehill
Tennessee Titans · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 6 | Blair: 7 | Filice: 6 | Parr: 5

2019 regular season stats:聽12 games | 70.3 pct | 2,742 pass yds | 9.6 ypa | 22 pass TD | 6 INT | 185 rush yds | 4 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽From offseason castaway to Comeback Player of the Year, the 31-year-old passer spent 2019 rewriting his 国产探花narrative with a mesmerizing 13-game run as the聽' QB1. Someone's going to pay him stacks of cash, right?

7
Aaron Rodgers
Green Bay Packers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 7 | Blair: 6 | Filice: 7 | Parr: 7

2019 regular season stats:16 games | 62.0 pct | 4,002 pass yds | 7.0 ypa | 26 pass TD | 4 INT | 183 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 4 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽As much as I want to believe another "down" year for the 36-year-old Rodgers is a clear indication that the frequent聽聽tormenter is firmly in his decline stage, I have to remind myself that the two-time MVP at 85 percent capacity still offers聽so much聽more juice than most of the QBs on this list. I'm interested to see how quickly new offensive weapons and another year in Matt LaFleur's system silence talks of No. 12 showing his age.

T-8
Kirk Cousins
Minnesota Vikings · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 9 | Blair: 8 | Filice: 9 | Parr: 8

2019 regular season stats:聽15 games | 69.1 pct | 3,603 pass yds | 8.1 ypa | 26 pass TD | 6 INT | 63 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽If you look past the Divisional Round dud -- which certainly wasn't all his fault -- any unbiased critic can surely see Cousins took a giant step toward elite status this season. If only he could throw every pass off play-action, he might be competing with Jimmy G for No. 1 on this list.

T-8
Matthew Stafford
Detroit Lions · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 8 | Blair: 9 | Filice: 8 | Parr: 9

2019 regular season stats:聽8 games | 64.3 pct | 2,499 pass yds | 8.6 ypa | 19 pass TD | 5 INT | 66 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽One of the lone bright spots on an otherwise-dreadful squad, Stafford played like a top-five quarterback before microfractures in his back shut him down halfway through the year.

10
Carson Wentz
Philadelphia Eagles · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 10 | Blair: 10 | Filice: 10 | Parr: 10

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 63.9 pct | 4,039 pass yds | 6.7 ypa | 27 pass TD | 7 INT | 243 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 7 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽Wentz really picked up his play during the second half of the campaign, finally making magic with his makeshift receiving corps. The聽聽QB1 edges out聽聽in my book because he was able to do as much as (if not more than) Dak down the stretch with far less talent around him.

11
Dak Prescott
Dallas Cowboys · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 11 | Blair: 11 | Filice: 11 | Parr: 11

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 65.1 pct | 4,902 pass yds | 8.2 ypa | 30 pass TD | 11 INT | 277 rush yds | 3 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Prescott was fantastic at times in the last year of his rookie contract, but the聽聽missed the playoffs, and he's now in danger of getting stuck in the Cousins Zone: good enough to pay聽a ton聽of money but dogged by lingering doubts over his ceiling. For what it's worth, Prescott became one of five quarterbacks since 1950 (joining聽,听, Kurt Warner and Deshaun Watson) to post a passer rating of 95-plus in at least three of his first four 国产探花seasons.

12
Matt Ryan
Atlanta Falcons · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 12 | Blair: 12 | Filice: 12 | Parr: 12

2019 regular season stats:15 games | 66.2 pct | 4,466 pass yds | 7.3 ypa | 26 pass TD | 14 INT | 147 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 5 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Ryan escaped the聽' second straight seven-win campaign with his reputation mostly intact, but there are cracks threatening to form in the facade. Like everyone involved with the current regime in Atlanta, the 34-year-old sure could use a real return to elite form in 2020.

13
Kyler Murray
Arizona Cardinals · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 14 | Blair: 13 | Filice: 14 | Parr: 15

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 64.4 pct | 3,722 pass yds | 6.9 ypa | 20 pass TD | 12 INT | 544 rush yds | 4 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Blair:聽It's actually kind of encouraging that Murray didn't just cruise to the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. Maybe going through some bumps in 2019 (including seven games with a sub-80 passer rating) helped prepare him for when the difficulty level ramps up -- along with the stakes -- in 2020.

14
Tom Brady
New England Patriots · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 13 | Blair: 15 | Filice: 16 | Parr: 13

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 60.8 pct | 4,057 pass yds | 6.6 ypa | 24 pass TD | 8 INT | 34 rush yds | 3 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Blair:聽Yes, the specter of a potential sudden collapse looms large for whichever team commits to Brady going forward. But he also played better at 42 than many mortal quarterbacks could at 24, finishing 2019 with more touchdown passes than聽,听Baker Mayfield,听听辞谤听Josh Allen聽and placing seventh in the league in passing yards.

15
Jimmy Garoppolo
San Francisco 49ers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 15 | Blair: 14 | Filice: 15 | Parr: 14

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 69.1 pct | 3,978 pass yds | 8.4 ypa | 27 pass TD | 13 INT | 62 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 5 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Jimmy G was mostly solid in his first full season as a starter, but even as someone who wants to give him the benefit of the doubt, I have to admit that it's not exactly encouraging that his best playoff performance featured eight total passes, or that he was 3 for 11 for 36 yards with 0 TDs and a pick while the Niners' 10-point lead collapsed in the fourth quarter of聽听尝滨痴.

16
Derek Carr
Las Vegas Raiders · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 17 | Blair: 16 | Filice: 18 | Parr: 16

2019 regular season stats:16 games | 70.4 pct | 4,054 pass yds | 7.9 ypa | 21 pass TD | 8 INT | 82 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Filice:聽Carr set career highs in completion percentage (70.4), passing yards (4,054), yards per attempt (7.9) and passer rating (100.8). But was it enough to convince Jon Gruden the marriage will prosper in Sin City?

17
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Miami Dolphins · QB

Individual Rank: Bhanpuri: 16 | Blair: 23 | Filice: 13 | Parr: 17

2019 regular season stats: 15 games | 62.0 pct | 3,529 pass yds | 7.0 ypa | 20 pass TD | 13 INT | 243 rush yds | 4 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Filice: Fitzpatrick's raw stats from 2019 don't grab your attention. But the 15th-year veteran was dealt , least-productive rushing attack and most-scored-upon defense in the NFL, yet he still won five of his 13 starts, including a shocking Week 17 victory in New England. Fitzmagic indeed!

18
Josh Allen
Buffalo Bills · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 18 | Blair: 19 | Filice: 17 | Parr: 18

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 58.8 pct | 3,089 pass yds | 6.7 ypa | 20 pass TD | 9 INT | 510 rush yds | 9 rush TD | 4 fumbles lost

Filice:聽Still far from a finished product, the cannon-armed, fleet-footed 23-year-old showed substantial improvement in Year 2. And he continued to flash a clutch gene, tying for the league lead in fourth-quarter comebacks (4) and game-winning drives (5).

19
Teddy Bridgewater
New Orleans Saints · QB

Individual Rank: Bhanpuri: 20 | Blair: 17 | Filice: 21 | Parr: 19

2019 regular season stats: 9 games | 67.9 pct | 1,384 pass yds | 7.1 ypa | 9 pass TD | 2 INT | 31 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Filice:Drew Brees gets sidelined for five weeks, and the Saints win the NFC South by six games. What sorcery is this?! It's colloquially referred to as Teddy Two Gloves. Bridgewater went a perfect 5-0 in relief of the injured starter, completing 67.9 percent of his passes with a 9:2 TD-to-INT ratio.

20
Jared Goff
Los Angeles Rams · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 23 | Blair: 20 | Filice: 19 | Parr: 20

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 62.9 pct | 4,638 pass yds | 7.4 ypa | 22 pass TD | 16 INT | 40 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 5 fumbles lost

Filice:听奥颈迟丑听's decline and the offensive line's destruction, Goff took a major step back from his first two seasons under Sean McVay. While the former No. 1 overall pick still unfurled high-level throws on a weekly basis, his consistency waned and he crumbled under pressure.

21
Philip Rivers
Los Angeles Chargers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 19 | Blair: 18 | Filice: 24 | Parr: 22

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 66.0 pct | 4,615 pass yds | 7.8 ypa | 23 pass TD | 20 INT | 29 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Parr:听罢丑别听聽had a ghastly 11:13 TD-INT ratio in the second half of the season, ending his run with the聽聽on a disappointing note.

21
Jameis Winston
Tampa Bay Buccaneers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 22 | Blair: 21 | Filice: 22 | Parr: 21

2019 regular season stats:16 games | 60.7 pct | 5,109 pass yds | 8.2 ypa | 33 pass TD | 30 INT | 250 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 5 fumbles lost

Parr:聽There's one player in 国产探花history who has thrown 30 TD passes and 30 INTs in a season. His name is聽. The pending free agent continues to strike a truly singular balance between dazzling and horrifying play.

23
Daniel Jones
New York Giants · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 21 | Blair: 25 | Filice: 20 | Parr: 23

2019 regular season stats:聽13 games | 61.9 pct | 3,027 pass yds | 6.6 ypa | 24 pass TD | 12 INT | 279 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 11 fumbles lost

Parr:聽Jones became the third rookie of all time to have three or more games throwing four-plus pass TDs (joining聽聽and Fran Tarkenton). Aside from the fumbles (lost 11, tied for the most in a single season since at least 1992), the once-maligned sixth overall pick of the 2019 draft gave聽聽fans reason for optimism.

24
Baker Mayfield
Cleveland Browns · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 25 | Blair: 22 | Filice: 25 | Parr: 25

2019 regular season stats:聽16 games | 59.4 pct | 3,827 pass yds | 7.2 ypa | 22 pass TD | 21 INT | 141 rush yds | 3 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Parr:聽The seemingly endless series of insurance commercials only amplified the fact that Mayfield was one of the 2019 season's biggest letdowns. His passer rating declined by 14.6 points from 2018.

25
Gardner Minshew
Jacksonville Jaguars · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 24 | Blair: 24 | Filice: 27 | Parr: 24

2019 regular season stats:聽14 games | 60.6 pct | 3,271 pass yds | 7.0 ypa | 21 pass TD | 6 INT | 344 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 7 fumbles lost

Parr:聽Minshew Mania ran a little hot and cold, but there's no denying the rookie was one of the most pleasant surprises of the season. The mustachioed sixth-round pick was the聽' starter for all six of their wins.

26
Sam Darnold
New York Jets · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 26 | Blair: 27 | Filice: 23 | Parr: 26

2019 regular season stats:聽13 games | 61.9 pct | 3,024 pass yds | 6.9 ypa | 19 pass TD | 13 INT | 62 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽A mixed-bag Year 2 for the mono-stricken QB1. But the former first-rounder did finish the season strong (even if it was against lesser opponents), throwing 13 TD passes against 4 INTs in the聽' final eight games. By no means a finished product, Darnold's encouraging stretch to close out the campaign should inspire hope for 2020.

27
Jacoby Brissett
Indianapolis Colts · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 27 | Blair: 26 | Filice: 28 | Parr: 27

2019 regular season stats:聽15 games | 60.9 pct | 2,942 pass yds | 6.6 ypa | 18 pass TD | 6 INT | 228 rush yds | 4 rush TD | 5 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽Thrust into the starting role just before the season after Andrew Luck's world-rocking retirement, Brissett acquitted himself well as the聽' new QB1. He is not nearly as dynamic as his predecessor, and he has a ceiling closer to high-end game manager than elite game changer, but I thought he was more than capable of taking the聽聽to the playoffs before he sustained an MCL sprain in Week 9. He was聽clearly聽a different QB upon his return, with his mobility, accuracy and overall play falling off a cliff.

28
Dwayne Haskins
Washington Redskins · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 34 | Blair: 30 | Filice: 26 | Parr: 28

2019 regular season stats:聽9 games | 58.6 pct | 1,365 pass yds | 6.7 ypa | 7 pass TD | 7 INT | 101 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽The more the rookie played, the better he looked. That said, he couldn't have played much worse than he did in his first three starts. I do believe the arrow is pointing up for the former Buckeye, but with this exercise limiting our scope to only the totality of his 2019 campaign, Haskins was far less impressive than some of his fellow first-year signal-callers.

29
Drew Lock
Denver Broncos · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 31 | Blair: 31 | Filice: 29 | Parr: 29

2019 regular season stats:聽5 games | 64.1 pct | 1,020 pass yds | 6.5 ypa | 7 pass TD | 3 INT | 72 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Bhanpuri:聽I can definitely understand the nervous excitement spreading throughout the Mile High City. Has John Elway finally found Peyton Manning's heir? Is聽聽the franchise savior that will lift聽聽Nation out of a historically bad four-year lull? I'm not here to squash that enthusiasm. I also think it's important to give the youngster -- he of just five pro starts -- some more time to develop. Especially with a new聽.

T-30
Andy Dalton
Cincinnati Bengals · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 35 | Blair: 28 | Filice: 31 | Parr: 30

2019 regular season stats:聽13 games | 59.5 pct | 3,494 pass yds | 6.6 ypa | 16 pass TD | 14 INT | 73 rush yds | 4 rush TD | 4 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽If Dalton is indeed out after nine seasons as the聽' QB1, I think he showed enough in spurts to generate some low-level trade interest in the coming weeks. That said, the franchise could do right by its all-time passing touchdown leader and cut him loose to let him decide his own future.

T-30
Mitchell Trubisky
Chicago Bears · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 30 | Blair: 29 | Filice: 34 | Parr: 31

2019 regular season stats:聽15 games | 63.2 pct | 3,138 pass yds | 6.1 ypa | 17 pass TD | 10 INT | 193 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽I want Trubisky to be successful. I really do. But I think after the season we just saw from the former No. 2 overall pick, the best and most practical way for this franchise to extract more out of that position is to add some real competition this offseason. I guarantee聽聽fans would much rather GM Ryan Pace聽聽than continue doubling down on a mistake.

32
Matt Moore
Kansas City Chiefs · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 28 | Blair: 32 | Filice: 35 | Parr: 32

2019 regular season stats:聽6 games | 64.8 pct | 659 pass yds | 7.2 ypa | 4 pass TD | 0 INT | -1 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Moore might have merely done what he was supposed to as a veteran backup filling in for聽, but don't undersell the importance of that. If his story this season -- longtime journeyman produces a 4:0 TD-to-INT ratio and a passer rating of 102 in three meaningful appearances shepherding Andy Reid's powerhouse聽聽offense, then ends up with a聽聽ring -- doesn't give you the warm and fuzzies, then I'd hate to hear your thoughts on puppies and sunshine.

33
Joe Flacco
Denver Broncos · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 33 | Blair: 34 | Filice: 33 | Parr: 37

2019 regular season stats:聽8 games | 65.3 pct | 1,822 pass yds | 7.0 ypa | 6 pass TD | 5 INT | 20 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Logging a 2-6 record over eight mostly blah starts before going on injured reserve in November, the 34-year-old Flacco seems to have firmly entered the聽venerable veteran clipboard-carrier聽phase of his career, whether he sticks around in Denver to sit behind聽聽or ends up elsewhere in 2020.

34
Case Keenum
Cleveland Browns · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 38 | Blair: 36 | Filice: 30 | Parr: 34

2019 regular season stats:聽10 games | 64.8 pct | 1,707 pass yds | 6.9 ypa | 10 pass TD | 5 INT | 12 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Keenum had some fairly rough moments in 2019, but he ultimately wasn't聽terrible聽before a concussion opened the door for rookie聽聽to take the reins in Washington. Keenum聽should聽be worthy of a backup/bridge gig somewhere, and, still just a few years removed from his unlikely run with the聽聽in 2017, could even be a top candidate to pull聽a Matt Moore聽for a contending team in the near future.

35
Marcus Mariota
Las Vegas Raiders · QB

2019 regular season stats:聽Bhanpuri: 32 | Blair: 37 | Filice: 36 | Parr: 35

2019 stats:聽7 games | 59.4 pct | 1,203 pass yds | 7.5 ypa | 7 pass TD | 2 INT | 129 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Here's hoping a change of scenery helps the former Heisman Trophy winner finally fulfill the potential the聽聽waited on for five frustrating seasons. And that his agent was taking notes聽.

36
Kyle Allen
Carolina Panthers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 29 | Blair: 33 | Filice: 43 | Parr: 36

2019 regular season stats:13 games | 62.0 pct | 3,322 pass yds | 6.8 ypa | 17 pass TD | 16 INT | 106 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 7 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Allen started out relatively strong in聽's stead, posting a 106.6 passer rating, 7:0 TD-to-INT ratio and 4-0 record in his first four starts in Carolina. But then the Niners sacked him seven times and held him to a 28.9 passer rating in Week 8, and he never really seemed to recover, ultimately getting replaced by聽, who joined Allen in reminding fans who聽think聽they want to see the spunky underdog backup QB on their team to be careful what they wish for.

37
Ben Roethlisberger
Pittsburgh Steelers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 39 | Blair: 39 | Filice: 32 | Parr: 33

2019 regular season stats:聽2 games | 56.5 pct | 351 pass yds | 5.7 ypa | 0 pass TD | 1 INT | 7 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Filice:聽Blown out by the聽聽in Week 1, Roethlisberger blew out his elbow in Week 2 -- and then聽聽like a man who missed Brett Keisel.

38
Eli Manning
New York Giants · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 36 | Blair: 35 | Filice: 37 | Parr: 38

2019 regular season stats:聽4 games | 61.9 pct | 1,042 pass yds | 7.1 ypa | 6 pass TD | 5 INT | 7 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Filice:聽Let's remember the good times from Manning's final season -- specifically,听. Yeah, he finished the game with more picks (3) than touchdowns (2), but the win brought his career record back to an even 117-117. Another clutch finish from Eli!

39
Nick Foles
Jacksonville Jaguars · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 37 | Blair: 38 | Filice: 38 | Parr: 40

2019 regular season stats:聽4 games | 65.8 pct | 736 pass yds | 6.3 ypa | 3 pass TD | 2 INT | 23 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Filice:聽With the ink barely dry on his $88 million offseason deal, Foles hit paydirt on his second drive as a Jaguar, delivering聽. Unfortunately, that contact broke his clavicle and gave rise to Minshew Mania.

40
Cam Newton
Carolina Panthers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 40 | Blair: 41 | Filice: 39 | Parr: 39

2019 regular season stats:聽2 games | 56.2 pct | 572 pass yds | 6.4 ypa | 0 pass TD | 1 INT | -2 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost

Filice:聽After undergoing a second shoulder surgery in less than two years last offseason, Newton hurt his foot in the preseason and never looked like himself in a pair of regular-season starts before eventually hitting IR. Has he played his last snap for the聽? Will his body allow him to re-harness Superman powers for another team?

41
Matt Schaub
Atlanta Falcons · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 42 | Blair: 40 | Filice: 40 | Parr: 41

2019 regular season stats:聽6 games | 74.6 pct | 580 pass yds | 8.7 ypa | 3 pass TD | 1 INT | -3 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Filice:聽You were forgiven if you'd thought Schaub had retired five years ago, but there he was in late October, making a spot start for Atlanta in place of the injured聽聽-- and shredding the聽聽for 460 yards passing. Yes, much of the damage was done in garbage time of a聽聽loss. No, it wasn't even close to Schaub's career high. He hit 497聽and聽527 (!) during his聽听诲补测蝉.

2019 regular season stats:聽3 games | 70.3 pct | 435 pass yds | 6.8 ypa | 3 pass TD | 2 INT | 6 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Parr:聽Look, Daniel has made just five starts over his 11 国产探花seasons for a reason. He had one respectable performance and one showing that聽聽in his two 2019 starts with the聽, placing him right in the聽not the worst but not good聽tier of quarterbacks.

Jeff Driskel
Cincinnati Bengals · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 43 | Blair: 48 | Filice: 42 | Parr: 43

2019 regular season stats:聽3 games | 59.0 pct | 685 pass yds | 6.5 ypa | 4 pass TD | 4 INT | 151 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Parr:聽Driskel went 0-3 as the聽' starter in place of the injured聽, but sandwiched between rough outings was a three-touchdown (two passing, one rushing) game against the聽聽in which he recorded a passer rating of 109.3.

Robert Griffin III
Baltimore Ravens · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 45 | Blair: 44 | Filice: 44 | Parr: 45

2019 regular season stats:聽7 games | 60.5 pct | 225 pass yds | 5.9 ypa | 1 pass TD | 2 INT | 70 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Parr:**聽saw occasional mop-up duty for聽聽until Week 17, when he made his first start since 2016 in a game against a聽聽team fighting for its playoff life. The聽聽cruised that day even without their starters, which is in part a credit to Griffin, even though he was just 11 of 21 for 96 yards, 0 TDs and 1 INT with 8 rushes for 50 yards.

Brian Hoyer
Indianapolis Colts · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 46 | Blair: 43 | Filice: 45 | Parr: 47

2019 regular season stats:聽4 games | 53.8 pct | 372 pass yds | 5.7 ypa | 4 pass TD | 4 INT | 2 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Parr:聽Hoyer teased聽聽fans with a solid appearance in relief of an injured聽聽in Week 9 before crashing down to Earth with a thud. His lone start was the next week, when he threw a trio of picks in a home loss to the woeful聽.

Devlin Hodges
Pittsburgh Steelers · QB

dividual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 51 | Blair: 46 | Filice: 46 | Parr: 44

2019 regular season stats:聽8 games | 62.5 pct | 1,063 pass yds | 6.6 ypa | 5 pass TD | 8 INT | 68 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Bhanpuri:聽When the聽聽needed him most, clinging to the unlikeliest of playoff berths, Duck went three straight games without topping 5.5 yards per attempt or a 50.0 passer rating. Pittsburgh nearly making the postseason in spite of its two-headed QB disaster (more on the second head in a minute) still absolutely floors me.

David Blough
Detroit Lions · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 44 | Blair: 49 | Filice: 50 | Parr: 48

2019 regular season stats:聽5 games | 54.0 pct | 984 pass yds | 5.7 ypa | 4 pass TD | 6 INT | 31 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽The undrafted rookie couldn't have asked for a better start to his pro career, throwing TD passes against the vaunted聽聽defense on his first two possessions -- on聽聽Day, no less! So what if the rest of his five-game run with the聽聽was a total cluster? Blough's 30 minutes of fame back in November is more than most of the guys I ranked below him had all season.

Brandon Allen
Denver Broncos · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 47 | Blair: 47 | Filice: 51 | Parr: 49

2019 regular season stats:聽3 games | 46.4 pct | 515 pass yds | 6.1 ypa | 3 pass TD | 2 INT | 39 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽In his three starts for the聽聽in 2019, Allen's passer rating went from 125.6 to 61.9 to 32.4, with that last lowly figure accompanied by a 3.3 yards per attempt mark. The 201st pick in the 2016 drafted waited four years for his shot, and it came and went like聽.

Mason Rudolph
Pittsburgh Steelers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 50 | Blair: 50 | Filice: 48 | Parr: 46

2019 regular season stats:聽10 games | 62.2 pct | 1,765 pass yds | 6.2 ypa | 13 pass TD | 9 INT | 42 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Bhanpuri:聽When asked why he was starting Duck Hodges over a healthy Rudolph ahead of the聽' Week 13 game, Mike Tomlin said, "聽." Says everything you need to know about Rudolph's ranking here.

Colt McCoy
Washington Redskins · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 52 | Blair: 45 | Filice: 49 | Parr: 52

2019 regular season stats:聽1 game | 66.7 pct | 122 pass yds | 4.5 ypa | 0 pass TD | 1 INT | 14 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Of all the brief quarterback appearances this season, McCoy's blip of a Week 5 start for Washington is one that seems the most like it could have been a figment of my imagination. Jay Gruden gave him the nod against the聽, McCoy barely eclipsed 100 yards, Jay Gruden was fired, and McCoy receded into the shadows.

AJ McCarron
Houston Texans · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 48 | Blair: 54 | Filice: 47 | Parr: 50

2019 regular season stats:聽2 games | 56.8 pct | 225 pass yds | 6.1 ypa | 0 pass TD | 1 INT | 39 rush yds | 1 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Did you know McCarron, who will hit free agency after making a Week 17 spot start while the聽听谤别蝉迟别诲听聽ahead of the playoffs, has聽?

Josh Rosen
Miami Dolphins · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 49 | Blair: 51 | Filice: 54 | Parr: 51

2019 regular season stats:聽6 games | 53.2 pct | 567 pass yds | 5.2 ypa | 1 pass TD | 5 INT | 13 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Blair:聽Rosen's fate, failing to catch on in Miami after being jettisoned by Arizona, will haunt the nightmares of every player -- let alone quarterback -- drafted in the top 10 for generations to come. I can only hope there is an alternate dimension in which he's ready to聽make the leap聽in Year 3 with a stable, supportive franchise.

Sean Mannion
Minnesota Vikings · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 53 | Blair: 56 | Filice: 52 | Parr: 54

2019 regular season stats:聽3 games | 57.1 pct | 126 pass yds | 6.0 ypa | 0 pass TD | 2 INT | -5 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Blair:聽I would take no pleasure in roasting Mannion for posting rough numbers in his second career start while the聽聽rested starters for the postseason. Instead, I'll point out his 35.1 passer rating in Week 17 was聽not聽the worst single-game effort of 2019. Ten other quarterbacks -- including some, like聽Baker Mayfield,听聽and the Allen QB Trio, who were facing actual expectations -- had him beat!

Ryan Finley
Cincinnati Bengals · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 56 | Blair: 52 | Filice: 55 | Parr: 53

2019 regular season stats:聽3 games | 47.1 pct | 474 pass yds | 5.4 ypa | 2 pass TD | 2 INT | 77 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 3 fumbles lost

Filice:聽After starting the season at 0-8, the聽聽benched ninth-year starter聽聽in order to test drive the fourth-round rookie who'd shown some promise in the preseason. Three losses and five Finley turnovers later, Dalton was back in the saddle again.

Trevor Siemian
New York Jets · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 54 | Blair: 53 | Filice: 53 | Parr: 57

2019 regular season stats:聽1 game | 50.0 pct | 3 pass yds | 0.5 ypa | 0 pass TD | 0 INT | 0 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Filice:聽Pressed into service for the聽听产测听's mono diagnosis, Siemian didn't even make it through a half before suffering a gruesome, season-ending ankle injury, thus fixing his 2019 yards-per-attempt average at an unfortunate 0.5.

Luke Falk
New York Jets · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 55 | Blair: 55 | Filice: 56 | Parr: 55

2019 regular season stats:聽3 games | 64.4 pct | 416 pass yds | 5.7 ypa | 0 pass TD | 3 INT | 0 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 1 fumble lost

Filice:聽Pressed into service by聽's mono diagnosis聽and's gruesome ankle injury, Falk actually acquitted himself pretty well as a mid-game reliever for the聽, completing 20 of 25 passes for 198 yards. His ensuing two starts, though, produced some figures that weren't quite as agreeable: 0 TD, 3 INT, 14 sacks and a 41.8 passer rating.

Will Grier
Carolina Panthers · QB

Individual Rank:聽Bhanpuri: 57 | Blair: 57 | Filice: 57 | Parr: 56

2019 regular season stats:聽2 games | 53.8 pct | 228 pass yds | 4.4 ypa | 0 pass TD | 4 INT | 22 rush yds | 0 rush TD | 0 fumbles lost

Filice:聽In his first start, Grier threw three interceptions and took five sacks. In his second start, the rookie tossed a pick-six, lost a fumble and completed just one of eight passes before exiting with a foot injury. Carolina lost each game by 32 points.
