Week 3 NFL QB Power Rankings: Dak Prescott into top five; Aaron Rodgers continues to tank
CBS's Week 3 QB power rankings bump Dak Prescott into the top five while Aaron Rodgers keeps sliding down the board.
Evaluating the NFL's 32 starting quarterbacks ahead of the third week of the 2026 regular season
Sharp take
Sharp SixNo actionPower rankings are a vibes exercise, not a lineup tool. Prescott is rostered everywhere anyway after a 32.6-point week, so a ranking bump changes nothing about your Sunday. Rodgers sits at 0.3% ownership for a reason, and a 42.5 team total against Cincinnati confirms the tank is real, not a media narrative. Start Dak without needing permission, and leave Rodgers on waivers where he belongs.
