Fans are always debating player rankings, and when it comes to the NFL, no position is more hotly debated than quarterback. This is why we continue to maintain our NFL QB rankings year-round.
Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Joe Burrow are widely viewed as some of the best players in football. While they set an elite standard for quarterback play, our 2025 NFL QB rankings capture how all 32 starting quarterbacks perform every week. Updated weekly throughout the season, who are the best NFL quarterbacks right now?
Lamar Jackson is off to an MVP start, even after a Week 1 loss. It helps that Jackson added four passing touchdowns and 228 yards with a 24-point Week 2 win. Oddly, he only added 13 yards as a rusher, but aside from taking three sacks, he didn’t commit any mistakes on an otherwise effective day.

For the second week in a row, Josh Allen didn’t put up big numbers (213 passing yards), but he was efficient (completed 22-of-28 passes) and effective (3 TD). Allen has yet to throw an interception, and his MVP campaign is still on track thanks to helping lead the Buffalo Bills to a 3-0 record.

Of all the things Patrick Mahomes can do. He hasn’t been able to beat the Eagles. The Kansas City Chiefs‘ season is off to a horrific 0-2 start. He wasn’t excellent in Week 2 either, completing just 16-of-29 passes for 187 yards, a touchdown, and an interception. Mahomes did lead the Chiefs in rushing, adding 66 yards and a score on the ground. Still, scoring just 17 points isn’t what we’ve come to expect from Andy Reid and Mahomes.

Justin Herbert has thrown his first interception of the season after having just three picks last year. He actually had a rough afternoon, completing just 54% of 47 attempts, though they went for 301 yards and a touchdown. But he also took five sacks. The Chargers are 3-0, but one can’t help but feel like a better team could have knocked them off today.

Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles‘ offense started slow, scoring just seven points through two quarters. But he caught fire in the second half, contributing to 26 points in the final 30 minutes of play. Overall, Hurts completed 21-of-32 passes for 226 yards and three touchdowns. He even added another 40 rushing yards and another touchdown on the ground for a dominant fantasy football performance despite a lost fumble.
