Jan 11, 2022 · The big riser of the week was Dak Prescott moving up to No. 8 and Patrick Mahomes barely making it into the top 10. Tom Brady made a final week push and jumped Aaron Rodgers into the top spot of the 2021-22 NFL regular season quarterback rankings.

- Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs. The 25-year-old prodigy is PFF’s highest-graded quarterback over the past three seasons. With an MVP award and a Super Bowl ring already in hand, Mahomes is already rewriting the record books.
- Tom Brady, Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Brady capped an incredible 2020 season with his seventh Super Bowl win, and his overall performance was the catalyst for elevating the Bucs to their second championship in franchise history.
- Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers. The biggest question entering the season will be whether Rodgers is wearing a Packers jersey at all. He led the league in overall passing grade (94.7) and passing grade on 20-plus-yard throws (99.5) in 2020 en route to taking home the MVP award.
- Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks. Wilson started the season on fire as the front-runner for the MVP title over the first eight games of the year, as he was PFF's top-ranked quarterback in overall grade (93.3).

After winning his second MVP, Lombardi Trophy and Super Bowl MVP, Patrick Mahomes comes in at No. 1 on our list and takes the torch from the now-retired Tom Brady. In case there are any doubters (there aren't), the rest of the NFL is looking up at Mahomes, wondering how they can compete with the Kansas City Chiefs‘ passing game. Joe Burrow comes in...
The first question mark of the rankings comes in the form of the Miami Dolphins signal-caller Tua Tagovailoa. PFF analysts pegged him at No. 11, but his strong grades and impressive mark in EPA per play give him a boost. We saw a marked improvement in decision-making and ability to find the open receiver in space, but there are limitations to his g...
Andy Daltongraded well but didn’t convince voters of high-level play, which shows in his ranking in PFF WAR and EPA per pass. Daniel Jones finished the season strong as the second-highest-graded QB over the final six weeks of the regular season and played well in the wild-card playoff win vs. Minnesota, earning an 80.9 PFF grade in the contest. Bro...
Sam Darnoldran an offense that ranked top-10 in EPA per pass down the stretch, recording a high big-time throw rate (6.0%) while fumbling six times in six games. Derek Carrstruggled to close out games and found himself benched to end the season. He has now been released, so the Raiders aren’t on the hook for his hefty contract. Kyler Murray and Mat...
Russell Wilsonand the Denver Broncos were expected to contend with the Kansas City Chiefs, but he struggled all season, posting the lowest big-time throw rate of his career. Marcus Mariota’s signing was a head-scratcher, and he struggled to take advantage of two talented receiving options and a strong rushing attack. He recorded almost twice as man...
Deshaun Watsonplayed his first football game in 700 days, and it looked like it. He showed flashes of his former self but put up the least EPA per pass of any QB this year. Carson Wentzwas injured once again and struggled to lead an efficient offense and win games. He finished with 13 big-time throws and 14 turnover-worthy plays. It might not be fa...

- Patrick Mahomes. Kansas City Chiefs QB. In four years as a starter, he's averaged almost 38 touchdowns per season. The production is automatic. There's an inherent streakiness with someone so inclined to off-script play-making, but paired with Andy Reid in Kansas City, Mahomes remains the standard-bearer when it comes to contemporary, anything-goes quarterbacking.
- Tom Brady. Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB. A banged-up offensive line may test his ageless mechanics, but Brady is still a machine at 45. His arm has seemingly only gotten stronger since coming over from the Patriots , and no one has a bigger team-wide influence thanks to his reputation, preparation and vision.
- Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay Packers QB. Like Brady, he's only elevated his MVP qualities with age. Losing Davante Adams will require him to spread the ball around, but he's still got one of the most effortlessly accurate arms in football.
- Josh Allen. Buffalo Bills QB. Everybody's favorite MVP pick, Allen is still prone to forcing throws or absorbing unnecessary hits as the biggest, toughest athletic package at the position, but he makes up for it with his cannon of an arm -- so strong that it can save the Bills ' entire week with a single deep ball.
