A new NFL<\/a> season means a new weekly ranking of starting quarterbacks. Week 1 had a lot of close, low-scoring games<\/a>, but there were some fireworks in the AFC, and not in the state (Ohio) where they\u2019re perfectly legal. But between Chiefs-Chargers, Steelers-Jets, and Ravens-Bills, it just goes to show you\u2019re not winning the AFC unless you have one of the most talented quarterbacks to ever play the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each Wednesday at 365Scores<\/a>, we are going to rank all 32 NFL quarterbacks from top to bottom. The methodology is to start with our preseason quarterback rankings<\/a> from July, which were based on a mixture of career value and recent play. Then each week, we will adjust the rankings to account for the latest game to get a sense of which quarterbacks are performing the best in the 2025 season.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought about introducing a formula for the rankings this season where I\u2019d start by taking 95% of the preseason ranking with 5% of a Week 1 ranking that is purely Week 1 performance. Then adjusting it each week where each game is worth 5% while the preseason share gets smaller. Then I thought about injuries, and things like someone lighting up a terrible defense giving them too much of a win over someone who struggles against an elite team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, I just scrapped the formula idea and am going to judge them like I did last year where the goal remains the same each week: Play well and help your team win. The path to victory is always changing, and we can adjust that for what the quarterback had to deal with, but I really do feel like people have lost the plot on a lot of the quarterback discourse anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We've reached a point where I don't know what people want from QBs anymore.
