We've got a lot of football coming on Turkey Day, so let's get this week's QB power rankings out a little early.

Have a safe, low-key Thanksgiving, everyone.

Poor Joe Burrow. That team absolutely stinks, but it was fun to watch with him there. Something tells me Allen won't have the same sizzle.

"},{"title":"31. Mike Glennon, Jaguars","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Glennon_Mike_USATSI_14753188.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1604524962,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: N/A

The Jaguars are benching Jake Luton after he threw four picks against the Steelers. Honestly, I'm surprised that performance didn't inspire them to stick with Luton for the draft pick's sake.

"},{"title":"30. Drew Lock, Broncos","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Lock_Drew_USATSI_15118793.jpg","credit":"Getty Images","published":1601496000,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 29

Week 11 stats: 18-of-30, 270 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT, 23 rush yards

Season stats: 55.6 completion %, 220.9 yards/game, 7 TD, 11 INT, 2 rush TD

Lock followed his one touchdown, four-pick game against the Raiders by throwing no touchdowns with one pick against the Dolphins. He's getting better!

"},{"title":"29. Alex Smith, Washington Football Team","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Smith_Alex_USATSI_15063495.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1605136560,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 31

Week 11 stats: 27-of-25, 166 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 68.2 completion %, 918 yards, 2 TD, 4 INT

Smith obviously hasn't been very good, but we know what the NFC East is. We also know that only two of the Football Team's remaining opponents have winning records, so we could be in for a pretty cool story here.

"},{"title":"28. Daniel Jones, Giants","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Jones_Daniel_USATSI_14991734.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1603315655,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 30

Week 11 stats: BYE

Season stats: 63.5 completion %, 212.2 yards/game, 8 TD, 9 INT, 384 rush yards, 1 rush TD

Jones has gone three weeks without an interception. Don't be a smarty-pants and point out there wasn't a game one of those weeks. It's obnoxious.

"},{"title":"27. Andy Dalton, Cowboys","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Dalton_A_USATSI_15089778.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1605798000,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 32

Week 11 stats: 22-of-32, 203 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 63.2 completion %, 655 yards, 4 TD, 4 INT

Andy Dalton had a great game! Been a while since we could say that. Happy for the guy.

"},{"title":"26. Nick Mullens, 49ers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Mullens_Nick_USATSI_14957553.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1600892040,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 26

Week 11 stats: BYE

Season stats: 67.3 completion %, 231.6 yards/game, 6 TD, 6 INT

It's easy to say Nick Mullens has been pretty bad throughout the 49ers' three-game losing streak. That's it. That's the tweet.

"},{"title":"25. Carson Wentz, Eagles","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Wentz_C_US_15001093.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679245,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 23

Week 11 stats: 21-of-35, 235 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT

Season stats: 58.4 completion %, 232.6 yards/game, 14 TD, 14 INT, 216 rush yards, 5 rush TD

Wentz' nightmare season continued with an absolutely brutal pick-six against the Browns. Yes, this has been a forgettable season, but it will be hard for the Eagles to stick with Wentz going forward if he doesn't start playing even a little better.

"},{"title":"24. Joe Flacco, Jets","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Flacco_Joe_USATSI_15085983.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1603317427,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 25

Week 11 stats: 15-of-30, 205 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 55.2 completion %, 172.8 yards/game, 6 TD, 3 INT

I'll tell you what: Flacco hasn't sucked! You've got to wonder whether that alienates him from his teammates and coaches.

"},{"title":"23. Tua Tagovailoa, Dolphins","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Tagovailoa_Tua_USATSI_15086417.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599748898,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 20

Week 11 stats: 11-of-20, 83 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 61.9 completion %, 602 yards, 6 TD, 0 INT

You can decide for yourself whether Brian Flores' decision to bench Tagovailoa was because he was struggling or because his line was going to get him hurt. Either way, it's not what you're looking for after inserting a rookie into the lineup of a contending team.

"},{"title":"22. Taysom Hill, Saints","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Hill_Taysom_USATSI_15223934.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679235,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: N/A

Week 11 stats: 18-of-23, 233 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT, 51 rush yards, 2 TD

Season stats: 22-of-28, 319 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT, 237 rush yards, 3 rush TD

I hated the choice to start Hill over Jameis Winston, but the proof's in the pudding. I'd still like to see the guy actually throw a touchdown.

"},{"title":"21. Whoever starts for Bears","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/bears_helmet_USATSI_13649339.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1601494908,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 24 [Foles]

Week 11 stats: BYE

Season stats: [Foles] 65.0 completion %, 231.5 yards/game, 10 TD, 8 INT, 1 rush TD

Matt Nagy has yet to name his starting quarterback as the Bears come off the bye. Both Nick Foles and Mitch Trubisky are nursing injuries, but if healthy, they should go back to Trubisky.

"},{"title":"20. Cam Newton, Patriots","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/newton_c_USATSI_15224892.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1600892180,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 22

Week 11 stats: 26-of-40, 365 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT, 6 rush yards

Season stats: 68.1 completion %, 211.1 yards/game, 4 TD, 7 INT, 341 rush yards, 9 rush TD

Newton's passing numbers have been better of late thanks to the low bar he's set this season, but he's looked horrible as a passer. It was shocking to see him throw a deep touchdown, but even that was the product of a great catch by Damiere Byrd.

Newton brushes off question about returning to Pats in 2021

"},{"title":"19. Baker Mayfield, Browns","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Mayfield_Baker_USATSI_15072537.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599686467,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 21

Week 11 stats: 12-of-22, 204 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 60.8 completion %, 185.0 yards/game, 15 TD, 7 INT

Mayfield has zero total touchdowns over his last three games. Impressive.

"},{"title":"18. Matt Ryan, Falcons","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Ryan_Matt_USATSI_14955511.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1600892450,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 13

Week 11 stats: 19-of-37, 232 yards, 0 TD, 2 INT

Season stats: 65.7 completion %, 297.8 yards/game, 15 TD, 7 INT, 1 rush TD

Know who's kind of been a poor man's Tom Brady this season, for all the right and wrong reasons? Matt Ryan. Like Brady, he's sucked in two of his last three games.

"},{"title":"17. Matthew Stafford, Lions","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Stafford_M_USATSI_15000802.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679242,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 17

Week 11 stats: 18-of-33, 178 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 62.8 completion %, 258.1 yards/game, 17 TD, 7 INT

Stafford played through a thumb injury against the Panthers and... it showed... because he was horrible.

"},{"title":"16. Jared Goff, Rams","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Goff_Jared_USATSI_13771288.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599688272,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 19

Week 11 stats: 39-of-51, 376 yards, 3 TD, 2 INT

Season stats: 67.7 completion %, 282.3 yards/game, 16 TD, 2 INT, 2 rush TD

Goff followed up his unforgivable non-torching of the Seahawks with his best game in a while. It marked just his second three-touchdown performance in the air this season.

"},{"title":"15. Teddy Bridgewater, Panthers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Bridgewater_T_USATSI_14956031.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1600891200,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 14

Week 11 stats: N/A

Season stats: 72.1 completion %, 255.2 yards/game, 13 TD, 7 INT, 196 rush yards, 3 rush TD

P.J. Walker got a spot start against the Lions, as Bridgewater is dealing with a knee injury. Bridgewater's expected to practice this week, which would seem to indicate he'll be ready for Sunday against the Vikings.

"},{"title":"14. Kirk Cousins, Vikings","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/cousins_k_USATSI_14956040.png","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679254,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 18

Week 11 stats: 22-of-30, 314 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 66.9 completion %, 246.1 yards/game, 20 TD, 11 INT

Cousins has been awesome over his last three games. He's thrown for eight touchdowns with only one pick. The Vikings are also 3-1 over the last four games, a far cry from earlier in the season when they were bad enough to potentially draft Cousins' replacement.

"},{"title":"13. Philip Rivers, Colts","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Rivers_Philip_USATSI_14925904.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679261,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 16

Week 11 stats: 24-of-36, 288 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 68.5 completion %, 268.3 yards/game, 14 TD, 8 INT

Rivers has thrown for three touchdowns in three of his last five games. The reports of his demise were greatly exaggerated!

Week 11 stats: 26-of-48, 216 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT

Season stats: 64.7 completion %, 268.6 yards/game, 25 TD, 9 INT, 3 rush TD

Brady is fifth in the league in interceptions. He's on pace for 13 on the season, but given his pace of late (five picks over the last three games), Brady could end up with 16 or 17. The weapons are healthy; Brady just isn't playing well.

Brady took heat from Arians, critics after loss to Rams

"},{"title":"11. Lamar Jackson, Ravens","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Jackson_L_Getty_1228496966.jpg","credit":"Getty Images","published":1599679227,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 11

Week 11 stats: 17-of-29, 186 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT, 51 rush yards

Season stats: 63.4 completion %, 194.8 yards/game, 15 TD, 6 INT, 575 rush yards, 3 rush TD

It feels like Jackson's been stuck in the mud these last four weeks. Playing the Steelers Sunday night probably won't help.

"},{"title":"10. Derek Carr, Raiders","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Carr_D_Getty_1275379447.jpg","credit":"Getty Images","published":1599687471,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 12

Week 11 stats: 23-of-31, 275 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 69.7 completion %, 243.1 yards/game, 19 TD, 3 INT

Carr was dynamite against the Chiefs. Unfortunately for the Raiders, the Chiefs' quarterback exists.

"},{"title":"9. Ryan Tannehill, Titans","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Tannehill_R_USATSI_14956293.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599686169,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 9

Week 11 stats: 22-of-31, 259 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 65.4 completion %, 238.7 yards/game, 22 TD, 4 INT, 149 rush yards, 1 rush TD

Tannehill's quieted down over the last five weeks, but it's served as a reminder that even when he isn't great, he's never really bad. There aren't a ton of players for which you can say that.

"},{"title":"8. Deshaun Watson, Texans","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Watson_Deshaun_USATSI_13767541.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679233,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 10

Week 11 stats: 28-of-37, 344 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT, 36 rush yards, 1 rush TD

Season stats: 68.9 completion %, 288.3 yards/game, 20 TD, 5 INT, 269 rush yards, 2 rush TD

In absolutely carving up the Patriots, Watson extended what's been a very strong stretch for him. Over his last five games, Watson has 11 touchdowns and no interceptions, while averaging 37.2 yards on the ground and adding a rushing touchdown.

Watson makes Texans history with dominant showing vs. Patriots

"},{"title":"7. Josh Allen, Bills","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/allen_j_USATSI_14959848.png","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599687362,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 8

Week 11 stats: BYE

Season stats: 68.4 completion %, 287.1 yards/game, 21 TD, 7 INT, 279 rush yards, 5 rush TD

The Bills had a bye last week, serving as a reminder that the world is less exciting and chaotic when Josh Allen isn't playing.

"},{"title":"6. Kyler Murray, Cardinals","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/MURRAY_k_USATSI_14928594.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679257,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 5

Week 11 stats: 29-of-42, 269 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 68.3 completion %, 264.4 yards/game, 19 TD, 8 INT, 619 rush yards, 10 rush TD

Murray's a pleasure to watch, but you can tell he's got some maturing to do on the field. It seems like he's an all-or-nothing guy, often avoiding opportunities underneath in search of a big play that isn't there. That was apparent in the Seattle game.

Bill Belichick praises Murray as 'hard to defend'

"},{"title":"5. Justin Herbert, Chargers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Herbert_Justin_GettyImages_1273939361.jpg","credit":"Getty Images","published":1600892429,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 6

Week 11 stats: 37-of-49, 366 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT

Season stats: 68.0 completion %, 299.9 yards/game, 22 TD, 6 INT, 187 rush yards, 3 rush TD

A rookie in the top five! It feels like yesterday when it felt nutty putting Herbert in the top 10, but what choice is there? He's the best rookie quarterback ever and has basically gone the hell off every game since his third start.

"},{"title":"4. Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/roethlisberger_b_USATSI_14992251.png","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599685664,"caption":"

Week 11 stats: 32-of-46, 267 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 67.1 completion %, 254.3 yards/game, 24 TD, 5 INT

I'm not sure who's getting slept on more -- the UNDEFEATED TEAM THAT COULD VERY REALISTICALLY GO 16-0 -- or the old-ass quarterback who's playing better than he ever has.

"},{"title":"3. Russell Wilson, Seahawks","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Wilson_Russell_USATSI_14927726.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679231,"caption":"

Last week's ranking: 3

Week 11 stats: 23-of-28, 197 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT, 42 rush yards

Season stats: 70.7 completion %, 298.6 yards/game, 30 TD, 10 INT, 367 rush yards, 1 rush TD

The Seahawks' Thursday night win over the Cardinals was a bit of a slump-buster for Wilson, who'd had multiple turnovers in each of his previous two games. He's still having an incredible season, but he's fallen well behind Mahomes and Rodgers for now.

"},{"title":"2. Aaron Rodgers, Packers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Rodgers_A_USATSI_14927510.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1599679237,"caption":"

Week 11 stats: 27-of-38, 311 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT

Season stats: 68.2 completion %, 288.9 yards/game, 29 TD, 4 INT, 1 rush TD

Maybe I don't get out much, but is anyone talking about the fact that Aaron Rodgers is having the best season of his career? He threw for 45 touchdowns and six interceptions in 2011 (his first MVP year). He's on pace for 46 and six.

"},{"title":"1. Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Mahomes_Patrick_USATSI_15027429.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY Sports photo","published":1600892425,"caption":"

Season stats: 67.9 completion %, 303.5 yards/game, 27 TD, 2 INT, 187 rush yards, 2 rush TD

Mahomes threw an extremely rare pick, but also went the length of the field in the final two minutes for a game-winning touchdown. He's the best in the business.
