Wilson completed 21 of 26 passes for 295 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions during Sunday's 46-18 win over the Colts. He added 38 yards and a rushing touchdown on four carries.

Wilson entered Sunday's game having not thrown a single interception on 130 dropbacks but tossed two of them before night's end. Those miscues were hardly a concern in the grand scheme of things, though, as the Seahawks ultimately buried the Colts behind a stout defense, Wilson's legs and a running game that finally has a pulse. The Wisconsin product has now put together two decent performances in back-to-back weeks after stumbling out of the gate and will look to keep it going against a surging Rams squad on the road in Week 5.

Siemian completed 16 of 26 passes for 179 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 16-10 win over the Raiders. He also gained one yard on four carries.

Faced with an inviting matchup, Siemian failed to generate big plays with his receivers, leading to an uninspiring 6.9 yards per attempt. He completed just two passes of more than 20 yards, including a 22-yard touchdown strike to A.J. Derby in the first quarter. Siemian looked to be developing into a serviceable fantasy contributor through the early stages of the season, but he still hasn't topped 259 yards passing this season and has two turnovers compared to just one touchdown since Week 2. He will enjoy a bye next week before facing the Giants the following Sunday night.

Winston completed 22 of 38 passes for 332 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 25-23 win over the Giants. He also gained 12 yards on four rushes and fumbled once but recovered.

A week after producing a very similar yardage total in a loss to the Vikings, Winston's performance -- and the end results -- were both markedly different Sunday. One major improvement was the third-year quarterback's ability to remain turnover-free, as he refrained from throwing an interception after tossing a trio of them versus Minnesota. He also connected with three different pass catchers (Cameron Brate, Mike Evans and O.J. Howard) for his scores, making impressive throws on each occasion. Winston then led a nine-play, 59-yard march that culminated in a Nick Folk game-winning 34-yard field goal, going 5-for-5 on the drive and hooking up with Brate for a clutch 26-yard reception with 1:30 remaining. With the Week 3 nightmare firmly in the rear-view mirror, Winston will look to lead Tampa to a second straight victory in a Thursday night showdown versus the Patriots.

Hoyer completed 24 of 49 passes for 234 yards and an interception during Sunday's 18-15 overtime loss to the Cardinals. He added three rushing yards on his lone carry.

If there are any positives to take away from Sunday's performance, it's that Hoyer left the game intact after getting his knee twisted up on in the first half. Otherwise, he seemingly was off-target all night, though he wasn't helped by a few untimely drops by his receivers. In addition, Hoyer has now thrown an interception in each game this season while reaching the end zone just once in four contests. He's nothing more than a desperation play in Week 5 despite his soft matchup with the Colts.

Carr (back) said he was in a lot of pain after Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Broncos, but he still hopes to play Week 5 against the Ravens, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Head coach Jack Del Rio hinted that Carr was diagnosed with back spasms, but there's apparently concern about the possibility of a more serious injury, as the quarterback already had X-rays and may get an MRI on Monday. EJ Manuel had to finish out Sunday's game after Carr's torso bent awkwardly on a sack during the third quarter. If the initial diagnosis of back spasms is confirmed, Carr will have a chance to avoid any additional time.

Raiders coach Jack Del Rio suggested Carr was diagnosed with back spasms during Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Broncos, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. "His back spasmed up," said Del Rio. "That's what it was. ... I'm not a doctor."

Carr was unable to return after exiting in the third quarter, but the initial diagnosis suggests a long-term absence is unlikely. The injury might even clear up within a matter of days, though it's quite possible the Raiders still want to do more testing, given that Carr's torso bent at an unusual angle on his final snap of the afternoon. He completed 10 of 18 passes for 143 yards and a touchdown before handing things over to EJ Manuel.

Keenum completed 16 of 30 passes for 219 yards without a touchdown or turnover in Sunday's 14-7 loss to the Lions.

Keenum turned back into a pumpkin after throwing for 369 yards and three touchdowns in last week's win over Tampa Bay. He started the first nine games of the season for the Rams last year and is a capable backup quarterback. Picking up Keenum as insurance for the injury-prone Sam Bradford (knee) has proven to be a wise move for Minnesota, especially since Bradford doesn't seem likely to return in Week 5 considering he still isn't practicing. With zero turnovers through three starts with the Vikings, Keenum's at least keeping the team in games.

Stafford completed 19 of 31 passes for 209 yards and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 14-7 win over Minnesota.

Stafford took a back seat to Ameer Abdullah and the rushing attack, though he did complete a successful two-point conversion to TJ Jones after Abdullah scored Detroit's lone touchdown. Entering Sunday's game, Stafford had a 7:1 TD:INT ratio and was just inches shy of throwing multiple scores in each of the first three weeks, so quiet performances like this one aren't the norm in Detroit's pass-heavy scheme. While his fantasy owners won't be happy, Stafford deserves credit for playing mistake-free football against a talented defense to help his team secure an important road win.

Dalton completed 25 of 30 passes for 286 yards and four touchdowns Sunday against the Browns. He also carried four times for 29 yards and lost a fumble in the 31-7 win.

Dalton enjoyed easily his best game of the season in this one, completing passes to nine different receivers, including three touchdowns in the second quarter to build a big lead. He also finished as the team's top rusher, with the team's crowded running back corps failing to generate much on the ground. Dalton endured a miserable start to the season but has since bounced back with six touchdowns compared to just one turnover in the last two games. He'll look to build off of this breakout next week against the Bills.

Taylor completed 12 of 20 passes for 182 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's upset win over the Falcons. He ran seven times for 12 yards and did not throw an interception.

This was the typical efficient performance Taylor has started to become known for. Unfortunately, not turning the ball over and making safe passes isn't all that friendly in the fantasy realm, and even though the Bills got a great win to move to a surprising 3-1, Taylor's rushing and passing totals didn't add up to much from a fantasy perspective. On the good side, he's playing well from a team point of view, so at least his job looks safe for the foreseeable future.
