Some Notables:

Patrick Mahomes at #1
Jalen Hurts at #5
Jared Goff at #11
Dak Prescott #12
Kirk Cousins #13

Dak Prescott -- Coming off a Week 1 victory -- when the Cowboys shut out the Giants -- Prescott was required to move the offense a bit more in order to beat the Jets. He was rather sharp, completing 31-of-38 passes. He appeared comfortable and in command of Dallas’ offense. Prescott also succeeded in a variety of scenarios. He dropped a great pass between defenders to CeeDee Lamb in the first quarter, made a fantastic throw to him on the run on third-and-14 after breaking out of the pocket to the right, and exercised commendable patience in surveying before connecting with Luke Schoonmaker for a touchdown. Dallas’ defense and rushing attack undoubtedly helped Prescott in what was a total team win.

Goff ranked above Prescott?

Sam is undefeated as a nfl qb lol. Hope I dont jinx him , but he beat dallas at end of last year, and now has started 2-0!
Wash was behind 21-3 and came back to win game 2. I think he may only get better as he gets more experience.

Part of the ranking is about who the writers know is better. Like....Joe Burrow has just been so so the first two weeks....but any sane person isn't going to immediately rank Burrow as the 20th best QB.

I’m no Dak homer but that seems a little low. There’s some bias going into that ranking. Dak moved the ball and didn’t turn the ball over against the Jets. The Jets have a good defense and we were short handed on offense. O well, these ranking are for fans to talk about. So I guess I’m just feeding into the plan. Having Hurts and Goff ahead of Dak is a little sketchy. Hurts hasn’t played as well and against as good of defenses as Dak. Goff?!? Whatever.

In some ways I hope the media keeps disrespecting the Cowboys cuz we play better when we’re the underdogs. I hope they salivate all over the 49ers and Eagles and make a narrative that we can’t win. We play better like that.

I always say Prescott can be #8 - #12 in a given week. That said, he has been much better than Goff — especially with how efficient he was against a defense as good as the Jets.

I’d love to see a list of the best qbs this season because it’s going to be a lot of names you don’t expect and a lot outside of the top 10. Hurts, Burrow, etc are not playing top 10 this year.

I was making fun of my own comment. Just because I thought the ranking was crazy doesn't explain my poor English
I’m right there with you, New York, slang. I noticed it was the same person posting.
