Goff completed just 11 of 24 pass attempts for 90 yards and a touchdown while also throwing two interceptions during Saturday's loss to San Francisco.

Not only was it an underwhelming statistical showing, but Goff and the Rams also blew a 21-7 lead. The rookie quarterback posted a disastrous 3.75 YPA and threw a costly interception with 21 seconds left in the game. It's further concerning that San Francisco checks out as an incredibly favorable matchup for opposing quarterbacks. Goff's struggles continue to exacerbate the already limited fantasy upside of the entire Los Angeles offense.

Bradford completed 34 of 50 passes for 382 yards and three touchdowns Saturday against the Packers.

While Bradford posted season highs in both passing yards and passing scores Saturday, it came behind a season-high 50 passing attempts in an attempt to keep pace with Packers QB Aaron Rodgers. Still, Bradford's performance ranked among his best as a member of the Vikings as he discovered a nearly unstoppable connection with receiver Adam Thielen. Next up, the Oklahoma product will receive an appealing matchup against the Bears in Week 17.

Carr suffered a broken leg in Saturday's victory over the Colts, Vic Tafur of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Videos taken of Carr immediately after suffering the injury showed him saying that he broke something in his leg, and it turns out he was unfortunately correct. Carr will undergo surgery Sunday and will be out indefinitely, so it seems highly unlikely he will be able to play again this season. Matt McGloin is set to take over as the Raiders' starting quarterback moving forward.

Taylor completed 26 of 39 passes for 329 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in Saturday's 34-31 overtime loss to the Dolphins. He also gained 60 yards on 12 rushes.

Taylor's passing yardage total was a career high, and he threw at least one touchdown for the third straight week. Meanwhile, his 60 yards on the ground were the most since he rushed for 68 against the 49ers in Week 6. Taylor was integral to Buffalo's second-half comeback, tossing a pair of scores to Charles Clay, the second which gave the Bills a 31-28 lead with 1:20 remaining in regulation. Although his team was eliminated from playoff contention with the loss, Taylor will try to wrap up the regular season on a strong note in Week 17 against a white flag-waving Jets squad.

Carr was helped off the field in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game against the Colts with an apparent right lower-leg injury.

At first glance this does not look good for Carr and the Raiders, who headed into the weekend atop the AFC West standings with an 11-3 record. Carr is backed up by Matt McGloin.

Cousins completed 19 of 29 passes for 270 yards and a touchdown while rushing the ball five times for 30 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 41-21 win over the Bears.

Cousins emerged as a dual-threat quarterback in Washington's most important game of the season thus far, keeping its playoff hopes alive for at least the moment. Just before the half, the quarterback scrambled into the end zone from nine yards out and then punched in a one-yard carry toward the end of the third to secure a Redskins' victory. After a below-average performance in Monday's loss to the Panthers, Cousins redeemed himself in the passing game Sunday, connecting with eight different wideouts on several big plays. His lone touchdown pass came late in the first quarter when he found Chris Thompson on a dump-off pass from 17 yards out. It's the first time in the last four games that Cousins did not commit a turnover. He'll now shift his focus to the season-finale matchup with the Giants, whom he played well against in the first meeting this season, passing for 296 yards and two touchdowns.

Mariota suffered a broken fibula in his right leg during Saturday's game at Jacksonville and will miss the rest of the season.

After a third-quarter sack, Mariota's lower right leg was placed in an air cast prior to his departure from the field on a cart. With the devastating ruling handed down, the signal caller will finish with 3,426 yards, 26 touchdowns, and nine interceptions, all career bests through two seasons. More impressively, he remains unblemished in the red zone as a professional, with 33 touchdowns versus no picks. For the regular season finale on Jan. 1, the Titans will bestow veteran Matt Cassel with a spot start.

Barkley completed 24 of 40 passes for 323 yards and two touchdowns while being intercepted five times in Saturday's loss to Washington.

Barkley was absolutely dreadful, though with the Bears trailing by 17 points in the second quarter, he was able to pile up meaningless numbers. Despite throwing for over 300 yards with multiple touchdowns in the game, he was intercepted on four straight possessions in the second half, and he's now turned the ball over nine times over the last two weeks. With it being unlikely that the Bears will be playing from way behind in Week 17 against the Vikings, he's looking like a fantasy option only in leagues that start two quarterbacks.

Petty (shoulder) was unable to return to Saturday's game against the Patriots.

According to Andy Vasquez of The Record, Petty said after the game that he felt his left shoulder temporarily pop out of place at the tail end of a hard hit Saturday. Ryan Fitzpatrick took over at quarterback for the remainder of the Jets' blowout loss. Fitzpatrick would be the likely candidate to start the Jets' season finale if Petty is ultimately ruled out.

Rodgers connected on 28 of 38 pass attempts for 347 yards and four touchdowns in Green Bay's 38-25 victory over the Vikings on Saturday. He added 13 yards and a rushing score on two carries.

Rodgers had his way with the Vikings' defense in the first half, tossing three of his four touchdowns and running in another for his fourth rushing score of the year. Although he took his foot off the pedal in the second half, Rodgers ultimately became the first signal caller to break the 300-yard passing threshold against Minnesota all season while notching his third game of the 2016 campaign with four touchdowns through the air. On a different note, ESPN reported Rodgers experienced the first "stinger" of his career Saturday, but he is alright and will be fine to take aim at the Detroit Lions in Week 17.
