Week 7 QB Rankings

49 players ranked · STD scoring · Updated Sep 29, 2026, 6:01 AM EDT

Projected — Week 4 is the current week

No betting lines yet. Sportsbooks have not posted totals for this week, so the scoring environment here is estimated from season scoring rates rather than taken from the market. Player roles and matchups are current; the point projections are less certain than a normal week's.

Dak Prescott of DAL is the number one QB in Week 7 STD scoring on the road against PHI, in a game where his offense is implied for 29.5 points, projected for 21.4 points. 7 QBs sit in tiers 1 and 2 combined, and those are the ones you start without thinking. The week's real question mark is Jalen Hurts at QB9, where confidence is low because strong usage, only 2 games of data.

Past weeks are scored against actual results.
