Cam Newton, Panthers –
Still climbing the charts. Teams may not even bother to worry about figuring out how to stop him if his stats aren't leading to Carolina wins.

Philip Rivers, Chargers –
Another season of having all his targets nicked up seems to finally be getting to Rivers. Doesn't help his numbers to have a solid ground game, either.

Matt Ryan, Falcons –
All those offensive weapons have yet to add up to the kind of leap forward many were expecting from Ryan.

Tim Tebow, Broncos –
The Tebow era has arrived in Denver. The completion percentage won't be pretty, but you'll enjoy the rushing touchdowns.

Tarvaris Jackson, Seahawks –
Just as T-Jax fringed on the cusp of fantasy relevance, a pec strain cools his jets. Charlie Whitehurst didn't look bad in relief, either; the Seahawks will have the bye week to figure things out.

Curtis Painter, Colts –
Painter nearly got the Colts off the schneid, and he continues to make Pierre Garçon a viable fantasy play.

I would love to hear the reasoning behind Cassel out of the top 20, but more so behind Dalton, T Jack, or Painter??? Seriously? While Cassel is 29th in Passing Yds/gm, he does have back-to-back weeks over 250 yards, which resulted in 2 Chiefs wins, which likely means more passing going forward. In addition, he is Tied for 9th with 8 TD passes and 89.7 QB rating is good for 11th in the league. On top of all of this, he goes from the 17th best EOS for weeks 1-5 according to this website to the 2nd best EOS for weeks 7-16. He threw 4 TDs last week and doesn't move up even 1 spot? What gives????

Personally - I'd rank Tebow no less than No 15 for the balance of the season.
