Burrow completed 15 of 22 pass attempts for 157 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 15-10 win over the Broncos.

As indicated by the score, this matchup was dominated by the defensive units. As a result, Burrow's volume was limited, and his 22 pass attempts were his lowest mark since Week 3. Even so, he was fairly efficient when he did take to the air, with the highlight of his performance being a 56-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Boyd late in the third quarter. While Burrow had racked up decent yardage in his last two games, he has now failed to throw for multiple touchdowns in five of his last six games.

Garoppolo completed 18 of 23 pass attempts for 235 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-13 win over Atlanta.

Garoppolo continued his bounce-back season with another efficient outing while leading his team to victory. The 29-year-old performs well when the rushing attack is clicking and he can look downfield on designed play-action calls. We saw that proven formula in action Sunday, as the 49ers rushed 32 times for 162 yards and three touchdowns, resulting in a double-digit yards-per-attempt mark for Garoppolo for the fourth time this season (10.2 YPA today). This Thursday's opponent, the Tennessee Titans, own a top-five rush defense while struggling against the pass, so it will be interesting to see if the 49ers attempt to establish the run or let Garoppolo start slinging it around early.

Huntley completed 28 of 40 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Packers. He also rushed 13 times for 73 yards and two more scores.

Huntley was impressive while starting in place of Lamar Jackson (ankle). The signal-caller leaned on Mark Andrews in the passing game, connecting with the tight end 10 times for 136 yards and two scores, but Huntley also made plays with his legs. In fact, with rushing scores from three and eight yards inside the last five minutes of regulation, Huntley put the Ravens in position to win the game. Although his two-point conversion attempt on a pass to Andrews with 45 seconds left proved unsuccessful, Huntley overall did an incredible imitation of Jackson given the circumstances, which should offer confidence if Baltimore's starter isn't able to return in Week 16 versus the Bengals.

Rodgers completed 23 of 31 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Ravens.

Rodgers' performance saw him tie Brett Favre for the most career touchdown passes (422) in Packers history. His first came on a three-yarder to favorite target Davante Adams, then Rodgers found Aaron Jones from nine yards and Marquez Valdes-Scantling from 11 on his two scores in the second half. The signal-caller could've had another to seal the game in the fourth, but he uncharacteristically overthrew Allen Lazard, forcing Green Bay to settle for a field goal on the next play. Despite the Packers subsequently having to eke out a narrow victory, overall Rodgers again fueled an important win and will now turn his attention toward Week 16's Christmas Day matchup versus the Browns.

Coach Vic Fangio said after Sunday's loss to the Broncos that everything has "checked out good" for Bridgewater (head) at the hospital, and Fangio believes the quarterback will be fine, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Bridgewater will stay at the hospital overnight for observation, but it sounds like he avoided a major injury, which is great news after he was carted off with a head injury against the Bengals. Drew Lock threw a touchdown pass after replacing Bridgewater but failed to complete the comeback in the 15-10 loss. It's too early to say which quarterback will start against the Raiders in Week 16.

Bridgewater (head) was taken to a Denver area hospital after he was carted off the field during the third quarter of Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Patrick Smyth of the Broncos' official site reports.

The decision is a precautionary measure after Bridgewater sustained a head injury at the end of a scramble that left him prone on the turf. Fortunately for the quarterback, he has movement in all his extremities. With Bridgewater out, Denver turned to Drew Lock to direct the offense.

Wilson completed 13 of 23 passes for 170 yards without a touchdown or interception in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Dolphins. He added 12 yards and a touchdown on four rushing attempts and lost a fumble.

Wilson has been plagued by slow starts this season, but that wasn't the case in this one, as he completed all five of his passes for 55 yards on the Jets' first drive, leading to a Braxton Berrios rushing touchdown. He built on that hot start and scored a one-yard rushing touchdown of his own in the second quarter, helping New York take a 17-10 lead into the locker room. New York's offense went dormant after halftime, however, with the Jets' only points of the second half coming on a pick-six by the defense. Wilson hasn't put together many complete performances in his rookie season, though injuries to the Jets' playmakers down the stretch haven't made things easy for him. Perhaps a Week 16 visit from the Jaguars will offer an opportunity for Wilson to find success despite his lack of weapons.

Bridgewater (undisclosed) was carted off the field during the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Bengals, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.

At the end of a scramble, Bridgewater tumbled face-mask first into the turf and didn't move for some time. The Broncos' medical staff carefully moved him onto his back, onto a backboard and eventually onto the cart immobilized. The nature and extent of the injury aren't yet known, but Drew Lock will take over for Bridgewater under center.

Tagovailoa completed 16 of 27 passes for 196 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Jets. He added 19 yards on seven rushing attempts.

Tagovailoa got off to an awful start while adjusting to the absence of favorite target Jaylen Waddle (illness). He recovered his own fumble on the game's third play but was immediately tackled to create a three-and-out on Miami's opening drive, then threw an interception on his first pass of the game to lead off the following drive. New York took advantage of Tua's early struggles and raced out to a 10-0 lead, but the Dolphins responded with a pair of Duke Johnson rushing touchdowns and a one-yard Tagovailoa touchdown pass to defensive lineman Christian Wilkins to take a 24-17 lead. Tua then tied it for the Jets with a pick-six but bounced back by throwing the game-winning touchdown to DeVante Parker from 11 yards out with 3:37 remaining. He led the Dolphins to a sixth consecutive win but will need to clean up the errors in order to extend that streak in Week 16 against the Saints.

Tannehill completed 23 of his 32 passes for 153 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 19-13 loss to Pittsburgh. He added five rushes for 18 yards and a score on the ground.

Tannehill continued his dreadful performance through the air, turning in his third consecutive game without reaching 200 passing yards. That has coincided with A.J. Brown (chest) being sidelined, and Julio Jones being a non-factor while also re-injuring his hamstring. Tannehill did manage to salvage his performance with a one-yard rushing score midway through the first quarter. Though he's now found the end zone as a rusher in four of his last six games, Tannehill has failed to throw for multiple touchdowns in that same six-contest span.
