NFL QB Rankings: The Top 3

Who has made it to the top three QB rankings for Week 7?

#3 - Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams

Putting Matthew Stafford at #3 on the QB list was a tough choice because he has played so well this season. Being traded by the Detroit Lions was one of the best moves of his career.

Stafford currently sits at #4 on the yardage list with 1,838 yards. His 16 touchdowns are tied for 3rd place in the league, and his passer rating of 116.6 is second in the league.

Stafford has linked up with Cooper Kupp in a big way, and the pair have produced seven touchdowns together.

The Los Angeles Rams are currently 5-1 and are trying to chase down the Arizona Cardinals for 1st place. This may happen sooner rather than later if Stafford continues to play the way that he has.

#2 - Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys

Dak Prescott has nearly the same stats as Stafford. His passing yards are 1,813. His touchdowns sit at 16 and are tied with Stafford. His passer rating is 115, a mere point behind Stafford. The Cowboys are also currently 5-1.

The main reason behind moving Prescott up by one spot in this week's rankings is because Prescott currently boasts the 2nd highest completion percentage in the league. Prescott trails behind Murray by only a fraction. His 73.1 completion percentage is the reason why Prescott has jumped to #2 and why Prescott remains one of the top QBs in the league.

#1 - Tom Brady, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The ageless wonder of Tom Brady can do no wrong in this league. His 44-year-old body seems to regress to a younger version week by week. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers sit at a 5-1 record and continue to trend upward.

Brady still leads the league in passing yards with 2,064. He currently also leads the league with 17 passing touchdowns and 344 yards per game. There seems to be no stopping this QB, and the NFC should be ripe for competition heading into the final weeks of the season. The Bucs and Cardinals might meet one another to determine who the Super Bowl favorites are.

Brady will remain #1 on the QB list if he continues his legendary output.
