Prescott completed 17 of 27 pass attempts for 183 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Jaguars. He also carried 11 times for 82 yards and another score in the 40-7 win.

Prescott connected time and again with Cole Beasley, who accounted for 101 yards and a pair of touchdowns through the air. He notched a career high in rushing yards and scored his first rushing touchdown of the season with a 17-yard run in the first quarter. Prescott avoided turning the ball over against the vaunted Jags defense and has six total touchdowns compared to zero interceptions through three home games this season. He hasn't been quite as successful on the road to this point and will look to change that next Sunday against the Redskins.

After Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Seahawks in London, Carr told Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the injury to his left non-throwing arm is "just a little bruise. I'll be alright."

With a little more than nine minutes left in the fourth quarter, Carr attempted to scramble on third-and-11, was hit by two Seahawks and landed in an awkward manner on his left arm. After getting up with a grimace and going to the locker for an examination, he returned to the sideline but didn't reenter because the Raiders didn't run another offensive snap. Carr is expected to undergo further evaluation Monday to determine the extent of the injury, but considering his comments and the team's upcoming bye week, he's a good bet to be ready for Oakland's next contest Oct. 28 versus the Colts.

Carr completed 23 of 31 passes for 142 yards, adding four rushes for 31 yards in a 27-3 loss to Seattle on Sunday. He also suffered an injury to his non-throwing shoulder in the game, though the team doesn't feel it's a huge concern.

Carr's pattern of inconsistent play persists, as his two lost fumbles against Seattle provide him with seven turnovers over the past four weeks, with 10 total giveaways on the year. A large contributor to Carr's 18.5 point-per-game (standard scoring) output over the past four games is his passing yardage, as he came into Week 6 averaging 328.2 yards per game through the air. Oakland stumbles into the bye week licking its wounds after a 1-5 start, but Carr has top-10 upside returning in Week 8 against a Colts secondary that ranks 28th in the NFL with 283 passing yards allowed per game.

Trubisky completed 22 of 31 passes for 316 yards, three touchdowns and an interception while rushing eight times for 47 yards in Sunday's 31-28 overtime loss to Miami.

Trubisky failed to lead the offense to any points in the first half, but he turned things around after halftime. He capped the Bears' first possession of the second half with a nine-yard touchdown pass to Trey Burton and added a 12-yard score to Allen Robinson on his next throw. Trubisky also had a would-be fourth-quarter touchdown called back on a penalty before getting picked off in the end zone on the next play. He bounced back with a 29-yard touchdown to Anthony Miller, but the mistake-prone Bears found a way to blow their seven-point lead 16 seconds later before ultimately falling in overtime. Still, with nine touchdown passes in his past two games, the second-year slinger looks like he's making significant progress in challenging downfield, despite some setbacks Sunday. A matchup with New England in Week 7 could produce plenty of Chicago aerial attempts if the game flow points to a comeback attempt, but the Pats boast a smart defense. This matchup should force Trubisky shareholders to temper expectations.

Winston completed 30 of 41 passes for 395 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions during Sunday's 34-29 loss to Atlanta. He added 31 yards on the ground and fumbled twice, but neither was recovered by the defense.

Winston got going early, connecting with Cameron Brate on a 15-yard back-shoulder touchdown for the game's first score. He continued humming from there, spreading the ball around so that seven different receivers ended the game with at least three catches. Winston is a dangerous option in a Buccaneers offense that has proven to be a high-flying attack throughout the early part of this season. Where the concerns might lie is in ball security. He takes on a Cleveland defense in Week 7 that is among the league's best in taking the ball away, snagging nine interceptions through six weeks.

Darnold completed 24 of 30 passes for 280 yards, two touchdowns and an interception during Sunday's 42-34 win over the Colts. He added eight yards on six carries.

Darnold piled it on the Colts late in the first half, finding Terrelle Pryor in traffic for a seven-yard touchdown. Darnold was without one of his favorites, Quincy Enunwa (ankle), for much of the game, but adjusted by turning to the likes of Pryor and Jermaine Kearse. After three straight games completing 50 percent or fewer of his passes, Darnold topped 62 percent for just the second time this season. He next gets a Minnesota defense on Sunday that has had its struggles defending the pass.

Wilson completed 17 of 23 passes for 222 yards, three touchdowns and an interception against the Raiders in London on Sunday. He also rushed six times for 20 yards in the 27-3 win.

Wilson connected with Jaron Brown (five yards) and David Moore (19 yards) for a pair of first-quarter touchdowns, then added a 10-yard score to Tyler Lockett early in the fourth quarter. Though Wilson's only exceeded 226 passing yards once in six games, he's managed to throw multiple aerial scores in all but one game this season. He'll get a bye in Week 7 as the Seahawks make their way back stateside.

Dalton completed 26 of 42 passes for 229 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Steelers.

Dalton was held to his lowest yardage output of the season, but he still managed to toss multiple scores for the fifth time in six games. With breakout receiver Tyler Boyd -- who caught two touchdowns in this one -- joining A.J. Green on the outside, Dalton should remain a solid pick in two-quarterback leagues for his team's Week 7 matchup with the Titans and beyond.

Cousins completed 24 of 34 passes for 233 yards, a touchdown and an interception during Sunday's 27-17 win over Arizona. He added 14 yards and a touchdown on four carries and also lost a fumble.

The dance moves following it weren't pretty, but Cousins looked sharp on the zone keeper for a seven-yard touchdown in the third quarter. It was Cousins' first rushing touchdown in Purple after 13 in the past three seasons in Washington. The rushing touchdown will curb some concerns about Cousins' passing performance on Sunday, which featured season lows in attempts, completions and yards as the Vikings dropped back on just 54 percent of plays, as compared to 71 percent heading into the contest. That ratio will be worth monitoring in Week 7 as the Vikings take on a Jets defense ranked in the top 10 in the league in opponent passer rating.

Coach Adam Gase relayed after Sunday's overtime win over the Bears that he didn't know if Tannehill's shoulder issue is long term or day-to-day, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

Tannehill's Week 7 status is thus cloudy until further details regarding his injury are available. Brock Osweiler will handle the Dolphins' first-string QB reps until Tannehill is deemed healthy.
