The quarterback position feels turned upside down entering Week 6. Veterans like and are . is building an MVP candidate resume. And a trio of young starters have taken huge steps toward proving they have real staying power., and are suddenly among the most fun quarterbacks in the NFL to watch. Carr has made the entertaining for the first time since Hue Jackson left town, and he's disproving that thought he wouldn't throw deep. Bortles' toolbox is stuffed to the brim, pulling off at least five plays a week that remind me of or . (Or John Elway, if we want to be real generous.) Those plays were there last season, but Bortles has cut way down on the big mental mistakes. Taylor, who is with a sprained MCL, has been the biggest revelation. He puts together the most "wow" plays of the group, with big gains often Andrew Miller Jersey coming in an avalanche. His running can be breathtaking but he's also asked to deliver big time throws from the pocket, and comes through showing anticipation. The scoreboard and statistics don't do him justice. Watching Taylor on Sundays, it's hard to believe Rex Ryan struggled to name him the starter. The to sign . The are playoff-ready once they get healthy. Taylor has a chance to cement his status as a franchise quarterback with a big season, and a big Fitzpatrick-like contract to go with it. The and may struggle to reach .500, but they should consider the season a succe s if Bortles and Carr keep this up. Both teams will know they have their guy. Many teams have learned this year , but it's a start. The Big TwoRodgers is playing so well that he was practically speaking in hushed tones when describing his performance against St. Louis. Rodgers sounded like he had lost, not helped the get to 5-0 against a dangerous defense. Luckily he had a waiting for him at home after the game: Olivia Munn, Brad Paisley and his family, astronaut and vanquished Jeopardy! contestant Mark Kelly and his former U.S. Congre swoman wife Gabrielle Giffords, and Rodgers' personal acupuncturist. (Thanks to Jason Wilde of ESPNMilwaukee for that tidbit.)Top Shelf 's season Brandon Guyer Jersey feels like a no hitter. I'm afraid that talking about it any further will jinx it. His third-and-long reliability and high level play throughout all four quarters over Seattle was impre sive. He's hitting guys in stride. His outing against Kansas City was one of the best by any quarterback all season. Yep, I jinxed it. ... 's outing against Washington was the Corey Kluber Jersey worst start any player in this tier has had all year. It's a good sign when his worst start including a go-ahead touchdown drive, including a clutch fourth down conversion. Wilson was playing very well in Cincinnati before a second half red zone interception and some poor decisions late in the game. He appeared to mi s seeing some open receivers, and left the pocket early. ... Rivers is the quarterback equivalent of MacGyver, scotch-taping together unconventional solutions to the myriad problems around him every week. Next Level Ha selbeck will probably be off this list next week, but I wanted to recognize the incredible level the 40-year-old played at for two starts. He looked like 2005 , but wiser. It was like he spent the last three years as a backup figuring out how he could game the system if he ever got another chance, and he pulled it off with flair. ... Bortles does it all, which is why he has such a high ceiling. He has great movement in the pocket and throws well on the run. He has a huge arm and can throw touch pa ses. He's aggre sive down the field and squeezes pa ses into small zone. The young receivers are growing up with Bortles as planned. The defense needs to catch up.Ken Whisenhunt's ultra-conservative game management dims the enjoyment of games. Mariota still looked comfortable in the pocket against Buffalo, although hitting on deep balls has been a struggle. It was nice to see Mariota finally using his legs when nece sary, nearly matching the rest of Tenne see's depre sing rushing attack in 23 fewer attempts. ... Carr is ranked so high in large part because of his consistency. He hasn't had a stinker game yet, and the recent lo ses weren't on him. Even the pick six late in the Denver game was on the receiver; Carr just would never throw under the bus. ... The dared to go deep, and he didnt exactly make them pay for it. Middle of the pack Brad Miller Jersey It's so strange to see a team run on third or long or throw "give up" screens just to improve field position. An offense as bad as the has many fathers, with a poor running game high among the woes. Manning's last two games have shown a pattern. He plays solid, if unspectacular, for most of a half before making a huge mental error. He's like a le s flashy version of Cutler and it's all hard to get used to. ... Even 's outings that result in 34 first downs don't look good these days. The were often scoring despite him. The play to the right perfectly encapsulates McCown. He escapes pre sure while running to his left, stops, and delivers a pa s into tight coverage while falling backward. He hit on this 16-yards to s to against San Diego and he's been hitting just Shane Bieber Jersey about everything the last two weeks after a rough first game. It's fun while it lasts. The Final Countdown As fun as the ending to Monday night was, I couldn't help thinking these could be Vick's last starts in the NFL. Teams are not going to be lining up to give him backup jobs after these two performances. ... Cousins is the anti-Bortles because of his low ceiling. He isn't especially accurate and doesn't make great decisions considering his other limitations. That results in a low ceiling.
