There is no single way to win a game as a quarterback. Lamar Jackson is doing it differently than Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes. No one is doing it like Anthony Richardson (though he's not always winning). No rookie has ever done it quite like Jayden Daniels, with his flare for dramatic finishes. And Bryce Young has made a comeback from his 'bust' label in a way we've never quite seen before. It feels like a week when QBs around the NFL embraced their uniqueness.
And that's what makes this year's crop of quarterbacks special. Happy Holidays from the QB Stock Market, where we weigh the most recent performances with 30% importance, while applying 70% to the rest of 2024. One question holds importance above all others: What have you done for your team lately? Previous weeks: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 1. Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens (⬆️ 1) We'll never know, exactly, what this offense could've looked like if Diontae Johnson hadn't been such a bonehead. The Ravens and Johnson had the composition of an ugly Christmas sweater. And now Johnson is a free agent. But maybe Lamar didn't need him after all. Mark Andrews is rounding into form and looks increasingly comfortable after his ankle injury. I'm not sure Zay Flowers or Rashod Bateman are WR1 material. But in many of the same ways that the Buffalo Bills live by the 'everyone eats' mantra, the Ravens rotate between Andrews, Flowers, Bateman and Isaiah Likely with a regular and terrifying injection of Derrick Henry. It's still the nightmarish unit that left us awestruck when the Ravens added Henry. Offensive coordinator Todd Monken is doing some fantastical stuff — so much so that Baltimore shook the narrative that they couldn't beat the Steelers. The rare threat of a Jackson-Henry rushing attack is largely what has Jackson throwing to a wide-open receiver on 35.4% of his throws, most in the NFL, and an open receiver on 59.7% of his throws, also most in the NFL, per Next Gen Stat
