Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs

No surprises here, but Mahomes showed everyone why he should still be the most feared QB in the league after putting up 41 points on a very good Tampa Bay defense.

Geno Smith, Seattle Seahawks

Geno Smith leads the league in passer rating. Yes, the Geno Smith who Jets fans wrote off as a bust. Smith is now in Seattle and having a resurgence that has Seahawks fans thinking playoffs.

Cooper Rush, Dallas Cowboys

That’s record-breaking Cooper Rush to you. On Sunday, Rush broke the Dallas Cowboys record becoming the first QB to win his first four starts with the franchise. Although his four starts weren’t consecutive, expect Rush to get a look at a starting job next season.

Kenny Pickett, Pittsburgh Steelers

The moment Steelers fans have been waiting for since the preseason is finally here. Kenny Pickett took over for benched Mitch Trubisky on Sunday. Although his effort fell short in the loss, he played well and could easily be in the conversation for Rookie of the Year if he keeps this up.

Bailey Zappe, New England Patriots

The fourth rounder out of Western Kentucky saw his first NFL action when relieving Brian Hoyer. Zappe showed promise as he took the game to overtime, before the Patriots ultimately fell short to the Packers.
