10) Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles
Jalen Hurts has impressed this season, mainly due to his ability to take care of the ball. The Oklahoma product is currently up to 15 passing touchdowns on the season with only one interception. If he continues to play at this level, the former second-round pick will have a strong chance to lead Philadelphia on yet another postseason run, especially if the team can fix the shortcomings on the defensive side of the ball.

1) Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills
Josh Allen made it clear this past weekend exactly why many consider him to be the best quarterback in the NFL today. The reigning MVP is a nightmare for defensive coordinators to game-plan against, and his ability to manipulate defenses with his arm talent and mobility puts him in a tier of his own. Following his three-touchdown performance in the team's win against the Chiefs on Sunday, Allen lands at No. 1.

2) Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs
Patrick Mahomes has solidified himself as one of the top quarterbacks in the league for years, and throughout the start of this season, he's only proven that to be true following each performance. The Chiefs' star struggled a bit on Sunday in the team's heavyweight loss to the Bills, but despite that, there's no way we can drop Mahomes lower than No. 2 following the stretch he entered Week 10 on.
3) Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens
Lamar Jackson returned to action on Thursday, and not only did the two-time MVP look like a top quarterback, but he looked like he never left. The dual-threat star absolutely dismantled the Dolphins' defense, and his return to the Ravens' lineup has immense optimism surrounding Baltimore moving forward. For that, Jackson slots back into the top three, where many feel he belongs.
4) Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys
Dak Prescott continues to lead one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL, proving that at his best, he's one of the premier gunslingers in the league. Prescott's career year keeps him in the top five, and if he continues to play at this level, there's no indication he'll drop anytime soon.
5) Baker Mayfield, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Baker Mayfield is arguably the biggest reason for the early-season success of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The former top pick looks rejuvenated, and he's playing at an MVP-caliber level, even with a banged-up receiving core. Mayfield's confidence and next-level play allow him to slot in at No. 5.
6) Jared Goff, Detroit Lions
Jared Goff has put together another efficient showing in the Lions' close loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Goff's proving to be more than just a game-manager, and if he continues to play at the level he's performing at, it won't be a surprise to see him slot into the top five at some point this season.
7) Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams
Matthew Stafford may be in the midst of one of his best seasons of his career, and considering his 41-touchdown season in 2021, that's saying a lot. Following his four passing touchdown performance on Sunday, Stafford is up to 21 passing touchdowns and only two interceptions on the season, and for that, the 37-year-old lands at No. 7.
8) Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers
Justin Herbert is one of the most elite talents in the league, and even when he's surrounded by subpar offensive line play, the Oregon product continues to find a way to win. Herbert led the Chargers to yet another win on Sunday, and although his turnovers have been at an all-time high, what he's able to do in the biggest moments allows him to remain in the top ten.
9) Sam Darnold, Seattle Seahawks
Sam Darnold tied the NFL record for most completions to start a game before throwing his first incompletion on Sunday night. The new Seahawk looks like he's finally found a home, and following his four-touchdown performance in the team's win against the Commanders, it's easy to understand why Seattle made it a priority to sign the quarterback this offseason. As Darnold continues to play like a top quarterback in the league, the hype surrounding a playoff run for the Seahawks grows.
10) Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles
Jalen Hurts has impressed this season, mainly due to his ability to take care of the ball. The Oklahoma product is currently up to 15 passing touchdowns on the season with only one interception. If he continues to play at this level, the former second-round pick will have a strong chance to lead Philadelphia on yet another postseason run, especially if the team can fix the shortcomings on the defensive side of the ball.
