As goes the quarterback, so goes the team. It's nottrue in the NFL, but it usually is. And it makes sense: In a pa sing league, the pa sers are like royalty -- the biggest influences on whether a team is destined more for a Super Bowl title or a No. 1 draft pick. It's with that in mind that we come to you with the most important pecking order outside of traditional team power rankings: QB Power Rankings. Consider this your cut-and-dry guide to the best and worst of the NFL's signal-callers -- a weekly 1-to-32 rundown of every starter under center. How are the QBs ranked? We try to factor in both current standingandfuture upside. So a long resume doesn't always guarantee an edge over untapped potential, just as a cold streak doesn't always erase a history of succe s. At the end of the day, we're simply trying to sort the QBs based on 2021 value, both now and in the near future. Now, without further ado, let's get to our Week 2 rankings: Week 2 QB Power Rankings1 Kansas City Chiefs QB Mr. Reliable. His ability to glide in and around the pocket, effortle sly slinging the ball with poise, is never not a joy to watch. It doesn't matter if the Chiefs are down three or 23; he's got the stuff to leave with the "W."2 Seattle Seahawks QB The MVP campaign is back on! No one throws a deep-ball arc quite like this guy, and he was bombs away out of the gate. (+1)3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB At 44, he Dwight Gooden Jersey might be in his prime. Seriously. Does his arm have more juice right now than, say, 20 years ago? It sure looked like that's po sible on Opening Night. As always, he's also clutch as can be. (+2)4 Green Bay Packers QB Exhibit A of past resume/proven talent offsetting recent performance. Mangy Rodgers was "meh" at best in an embarra sing debut, but everything says that should be an anomaly. (-2)5 Dallas Cowboys QB Sharp and steady in the pocket, Dak may not be fully healthy, but he looks fully confident. A truly solid total package. (+2)6 Los Angeles Chargers QB Huge arm. Smart mind. Both were evident in Week 1's win over a tough defense on the road.7 Buffalo Bills QB It's just one game, but it's also po sible his lights-out MVP candidacy of 2020 was the mountaintop, at least production-wise. He's got all the tools, but he's got to be smart about the ball and his own body. (-3)8 Los Angeles Rams QB Look at what a move to the West Coast can do. Boy oh boy does his big arm look recharged throwing for Sean McVay's squad. Let's hope Los Angeles can keep him upright. (+2)9 Baltimore Ravens QB Same old, same old here: His legs are unmatched weapons, and he's still got deep-ball touch (see: Sammy Watkins vs. Raiders). But he's gotta take care of the ball if he's not gonna be super efficient. (-1)10 Arizona Cardinals QB It feels like he's still a bit underrated on a national level. When his cannon is locked on the right targets, he might be the game's deadliest dual threat this side of Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson. (+1)11 Tenne see Titans QB Hard to pin too much blame on him for the Titans' slip-up when Chandler Jones was in his face all day. This is more a case of other QBs jumping ahead with flashier stuff. (-2)12 Cleveland Browns QB For most of the Browns' playoff rematch vs. the Chiefs, he was as advertised: steady, efficient and occasionally daring. Forcing a throw late in an attempt to play hero was a remnant of days past.13 Minnesota Vikings QB With or without O-line help, he stays zipping bullets to an elite starting WR duo. He just too often does it playing catch-up.14 Las Vegas Raiders QB Monday night offered the full Derek Carr experience. After at least a half of reckle s hit-or-mi s shots, he rallied his team with some gutsy crunch-time floaters. The guy doesn't quit, that's for sure.15 Cincinnati Bengals QB Who said he was rattled coming off knee rehab? The Kid looks plenty poised, even if the Bengals remain a work in progre s, and more time will enable even more connections with his hot receiving corps. Tom Seaver Jersey (+3) 16 San Francisco 49ers QB Trey Lance sure feels destined to steal more snaps as the weeks go on, but he was exactly what he needed to be for Kyle Shanahan's run-first attack and first "W." (+1)17 Philadelphia Eagles QB Poise and mobility have never been questions, but Hurts was also extremely efficient inside the pocket in his first road start as the full-time QB1. The production matches the swagger early on. (+6)18 New England Patriots QB Win or lose, Jones looks like the real deal from both a mental and physical standpoint early on. He knows what he's doing. (+2)19 Denver Broncos QB Not sure he's gonna be able to imitate Patrick Mahomes when he's not playing the Giants, but this man has seen it all, and he always comes out polished and profe sional, even if his ceiling isn't particularly high.20 Indianapolis Colts QB Mostly good (no picks, some nice tight throws) and a little bad (fumbled snap) in a solid but not-special Colts debut. Hopefully Frank Reich has a plan to comfortably expand his horizons sooner rather than later. (+4)21 New Orleans Saints QB If Week 1 were the sole basis for the rankings, you better believe he'd be near the top. Who knows if Winston can sustain his deep-ball Pete Alonso Jersey magic, but he sure looks comfy operating in the confines of Sean Payton's offense. (+6)22 Atlanta Falcons QB Yikes. This might be the 2020 Matthew Stafford situation of 2021, in which a respected longtime QB finally melds with his team's mediocrity before campaigning for a change of scenery after the season. (-6)23 Pittsburgh Steelers QB It's not that Big Ben was totally bad in an important Week 1 win over the Bills. But there's little here to suggest his arm, clearly le s than elite late in 2020, has the juice to show out if/when Pittsburgh's defense can't carry the club. (-9)24 Carolina Panthers QB Playing the Jets can make you look better than you are (the irony here!), but seeing Darnold operate so smoothly and confidently is a minor miracle after his Big Apple devolution. (+5)25 New York Jets QB No one will ever question his pure arm talent, which should slowly but surely move him up the board. But behind a shaky O-line, he's got a ways to go before he can settle in. (-4)26 Jacksonville Jaguars QB When your coach asks you to throw it 51 times behind an iffy line, a few picks are bound to happen. Let's hope his football IQ isn't damaged by trying to make up for Jacksonville's countle s other i sues. (-4)27 Miami Dolphins QB Good for him grabbing the Week 1 win, but who knows yet whether he has the ability to open things up? (-1)28 Detroit Lions QB Nice work from Goff collecting stats (and making some tight throws) in a comeback effort. Let's see if he can start strong earlier next time, and against a more settled secondary.29 Houston Texans QB The minute you fully count him out, he surprises with a big outing. But it was also the Jaguars. (+3)30 Washington Football Team QB With Ryan Fitzpatrick sidelined for at least three games, he gets his first shot at the starting job since the playoffs. One thing he's got going for him: a knack for extending plays, which can go a long way.31 Chicago Bears QB He wasn't horrible in his prime-time Bears debut, but that's not the point; he's both literally and figuratively a placeholder in Chicago, tiding the team over with milquetoast drives while the more talented Justin Fields awaits. (-1)32 New York Giants QB The guy can move, but he's still giving up the ball like it's his job, and nothing else indicates a major breakthrough is coming in the pa sing game, at least when it counts. (-1)
