Rodgers completed 17 of 29 passes for 235 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 27-16 win over Denver.

Rodgers capped off the Packers' first drive with a patented 40-yard bomb to Marquez Valdes-Scantling after Denver jumped offside and gave the Packers a free play. Though there was the occasional nifty pass, there wasn't much else going for Rodgers and the Packers. Part of that can be attributed to two Denver turnovers gifting the Packers short fields and 14 points, but fans might -- rightly -- remain concerned about Green Bay's early penchant for starting hot and cooling quickly. There won't be much time to correct course with a visit from the Eagles coming Thursday.

Allen completed 23 of 36 passes for 243 yards, a touchdown, a two-point conversion and an interception in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Bengals. He rushed nine times for 46 yards and fumbled twice, but the ball was recovered by the offense both times.

Allen opened the scoring with a one-yard touchdown to tight end Dawson Knox and added a two-point conversion to Cole Beasley. He also let the Bengals back into the game, as his third-quarter interception was returned to the 22-yard line, and Buffalo's 14-0 lead was cut in half three plays later. Turnovers continue to be a bugaboo for the second-year quarterback, and he's still a below-average passer who has never thrown for more than 254 yards in a game, but this was the first time this season that he failed to record a rushing touchdown. Allen has guided the Bills to a 3-0 record against a trio of lackluster teams, but the competition gets a lot stiffer in Week 4, when the undefeated Patriots come to town.

Jackson completed 22 of 43 passes for 267 yards and added 46 yards and a touchdown on eight carries during Sunday's 33-28 loss to the Chiefs.

An impressive, cork-screwing run in the game's final moments salvaged what was an otherwise so-so day for Jackson. The Chiefs jumped out to a big early lead, forcing Jackson to operate more from the pocket. Though he avoided disaster, the low completion percentage and bizarre cross-field throw to Willie Snead that was somehow pulled down by the veteran wideout are certain to be topics of conversation in the coming week. Jackson will face his biggest test of the young season Sunday against division-rival Cleveland.

Carr completed 27 of 34 pass attempts for 242 yards with two touchdowns and one interception during Sunday's 34-14 road loss to the Vikings.

The 28-year-old eclipsed 240 passing yards in Week 3 against Minnesota after being held under the 200-yard mark and throwing two interceptions last week against the Chiefs. What's also encouraging for Carr is the fact that he threw multiple passing touchdowns for the first time since Week 14 of last season, despite facing a Vikings secondary that sports two former All-Pros in Harrison Smith and Xavier Rhodes. Up next is a matchup against an Indianapolis defense that gave up three passing touchdowns and north of 300 yards to Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan in Week 3.

Dalton completed 20 of 36 passes for 249 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 21-17 loss to Buffalo. He added a one-yard touchdown rush.

Dalton failed to complete any of his five passes in the first quarter, and things didn't get much better through the air after that, but Dalton did manage to find the end zone with his legs from one yard out in the third quarter. He later fumbled on the 1-yard line but had the error wiped out by an offsides penalty. Dalton took advantage of the second chance with a one-yard touchdown pass to Joe Mixon on the very next play. The quarterback had a chance to be the hero late, but he was intercepted on Buffalo's 10-yard line in the final minute on a tipped ball.

Prescott completed 19 of 32 pass attempts for 246 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception Sunday against the Dolphins. He also carried twice for seven yards and a touchdown during the 31-6 win.

Prescott started off a bit slowly, leading his team to just 10 points in the first half while throwing an ill-advised interception on a deep attempt. He turned it up in the second half, during which he scored a rushing touchdown in addition to firing a second scoring pass to Amari Cooper. Prescott's yardage numbers have come back to earth after his 405-yard eruption in the season opener, but he's still accounted for at least three touchdowns in each of his three appearances. He'll look to keep up his excellent start next Sunday on the road against the Saints.

Mahomes completed 27 of 37 passes for 374 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 33-28 win over the Ravens. He fumbled once in the contest, but it was recovered.

Mahomes enjoyed another terrific second quarter Sunday, dropping off a 18-yard touchdown to Demarcus Robinson and then following up with an 83-yard seed to Mecole Hardman. Mahomes had topped 1,000 yards passing for the season by halftime and is on pace for a jaw-dropping 6,373 yards to go along with 53 scores for the season, with no signs of letting up. Next up is a hot Lions team that has tempered talented passers Phillip Rivers and Carson Wentz in back-to-back weeks.

Brissett completed 28 of 37 passes for 310 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Colts' 27-24 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also rushed three times for four yards.

Brissett came just four yards short of equaling his career high in passing yardage during a stellar showing, one in which he completed an outstanding 75.7 percent of his attempts. The fourth-year quarterback fired multiple passing touchdowns for the third time in as many games to open the season, and he averaged 8.4 yards per attempt while connecting with nine different pass catchers overall. Just as impressive was the fact Brissett was able to accomplish a chunk of his production without the services of T.Y. Hilton, who exited with a quadriceps injury. A brilliant start to his first season as the official successor to Andrew Luck already under his belt, Brissett will look to keep the magic going against the vulnerable Raiders defense Week 4.

Driskel (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.

Driskel is a healthy scratch Week 3, leaving David Blough to serve as the backup to top quarterback Matthew Stafford. The Lions claimed Driskel off waivers Tuesday.

Sudfeld (wrist) is officially listed as active for Sunday's game against the Lions, Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports.

Sudfeld practiced in full all week and appears recovered from his wrist injury. He and Josh McCown will serve as reserve options behind starting quarterback Carson Wentz.
