  • Jordan Love QB | GB

    Packers' Jordan Love: Struggles in rainy conditions

    Love completed 23 of 39 passes for 273 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions.

    Love played through a groin injury that limited his practice participation throughout the week. At first glance, his stat line appears decent, as he averaged 7.0 yards per attempt and topped 250 passing yards fourth time in seven games. However, he threw a pick-six just before halftime on an ill-advised play and later missed Dontayvion Wicks wide open in the end zone as the Packers tried to make a comeback early in the fourth quarter. Love has now failed to throw a touchdown in consecutive starts as the Packers head into their bye week.

  • Kyler Murray QB | ARI

    Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Meager output in comfortable win

    Murray completed 13 of 20 passes for 154 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions, rushed twice for six yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's 29-9 victory against the Bears.

    For the first time this season, Murray didn't record a passing touchdown, and he lost a fumble for the third time in nine games. His pass attempts also marked a season low, which was a result of the Cardinals controlling the game on the ground to the tune of 34 carries for 213 yards and three TDs. James Conner (107) accounted for a majority share of the yards, but reserve RBs Emari Demercado and Trey Benson combined for 96 yards between them. As a result, the team wasn't reliant on Murray's arm to get by or play catch-up. He may be forced to air it out more next Sunday versus the Jets.

  • Rams' Matthew Stafford: Solid effort in OT win

    Stafford completed 25 of 44 pass attempts for 298 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 26-20 overtime win versus Seattle.

    Stafford's second passing touchdown sent the Rams home with a victory over a division rival after connecting with Demarcus Robinson in overtime. The veteran quarterback couldn't replicate last week's four-touchdown performance, but he still finished with his second-highest yardage total of the season. Stafford is slowly climbing his numbers back up to previous norms heading into next Monday's tilt against the Dolphins.

  • Jared Goff QB | DET

    Lions' Jared Goff: Manages team to rainy win

    Goff completed 18 of 22 passes for 145 yards, one touchdown and zero interceptions in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Packers.

    Goff led the Lions to a touchdown on their opening drive, during which he went 5-for-5 for 29 yards and a three-yard score. Detroit maintained a lead from there and also benefitted from a defensive score. Based on that game script and rainy conditions, Goff had limited pass volume for the second consecutive contest, with Sunday's performance marking his first without multiple touchdowns since Week 2. He'll return to playing in a dome in a Week 10 matchup against the Texans, which should be beneficial for him and the entire Detroit offense.

  • Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Short TDs save poor passing day

    Lawrence completed 16 of 31 pass attempts for 169 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing five times for eight yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles.

    Lawrence had a rough day in terms of passing the football, but two short rushing scores helped alleviate what would have been a poor fantasy day. The 2021 first-overall pick continued to provide mixed results under head coach Doug Pederson as the Jaguars dropped to 2-7. Lawrence's managers will hope for better results against a middling Vikings defense next Sunday.

  • Jalen Hurts QB | PHI

    Eagles' Jalen Hurts: Scores thrice in win

    Hurts completed 18 of 24 pass attempts for 230 yards and two touchdowns while rushing 13 times for 67 yards and another score in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Jaguars.

    Hurts stayed hot in Week 9 with his third consecutive three-touchdown game. The Eagles' offense has been performing better as a whole, and the team's star quarterback has played a large role in the recent string of success. Hurts has contributed 10 combined scores over the aforementioned three-week span. The dual-threat QB remains a strong fantasy play against a depleted Dallas defense next Sunday.

  • Caleb Williams QB | CHI

    Bears' Caleb Williams: Another poor showing

    Williams completed 22 of 41 passes for 217 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 29-9 loss to the Cardinals. He added four rushes for five yards.

    Williams continued to face a lot of pressure -- he was sacked six times -- and struggled to connect with his wide receivers. Positively, he didn't turn the ball over, though he otherwise struggled to get the ball moving by averaging just 5.3 yards per attempt. Williams had only one completion of over 20 yards and failed to record a touchdown in his second straight contest and for the fourth time in eight games for his rookie campaign. Coach Matt Eberflus said after the game that Williams tweaked his ankle on the final drive, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, so Williams' practice participation will bear monitoring ahead of Chicago's Week 10 home game against the Patriots.

  • Brett Rypien QB | MIN

    Vikings' Brett Rypien: Emergency quarterback again

    Rypien (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday Night Football against the Colts.

    Rypien is serving as the emergency third quarterback, meaning he can enter the game if Sam Darnold and Nick Mullens exit due to injury. The former Bronco and Ram has been playing this role all year for the Vikings.

  • Sam Ehlinger QB | IND

    Colts' Sam Ehlinger: Emergency third QB Sunday night

    Ehlinger (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday Night Football against the Vikings.

    Ehlinger is serving as the emergency third quarterback, meaning he can only enter the game if starter Joe Flacco and backup Anthony Richardson can't play due to injury. The 2021 sixth-round pick has yet to appear in a game this season.

  • Lamar Jackson QB | BAL

    Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Perfect passer rating in rout

    Jackson completed 16 of 19 passes for 280 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Broncos.

    For the first time all season, Jackson failed to run for double-digit yardage as he gained only four yards on three carries, but he hardly needed to during a game in which the Ravens never trailed. He was nearly flawless with his arm though, posting a perfect QB rating of 158.3 as he hit Zay Flowers for a pair of second-quarter scores before adding a three-yard TD to Patrick Ricard late in the third. Jackson has a stellar 15:1 TD:INT over the last five games, reaching 280 passing yards in all five contests, and his impressive streak figures to continue in Week 10 against a Bengals defense he already lit up for 348 yards and four touchdowns in their first meeting.
