Who Has Starred And Who Has Flunked In The NFL Through Week Six?

We are now a third of the way through the regular season in the NFL and now is a great time to consider just how the 32 teams competing in the league have performed, as well as which players and units have been either on fire, or massively underperforming.

We previewed the eight divisions earlier this year and gave you our tips for which teams will win each of them, and some of those tips look solid, while others are looking on very dodgy ground at the moment!

So with that in mind, we are going to take a look at some of the teams and individuals that have been the stars of the season so far in the NFL, as well as those that have been well below par over the course of the season so far.

Remember, you can enjoy an extensive range of bets on every game in the NFL every week of the season with bet365 Sport, including through the playoffs and on the Super Bowl too.

So let’s get started with our termly review of the first third of the season with a look at the signal callers and for each of our lists, we will have five items on it.

NFL Season 2022 – Weeks 1-6 Reports

Star Quarterbacks

— Buffalo Bills (@BuffaloBills) October 18, 2022

1. Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills)
2. Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs)
3. Justin Herbert (Los Angeles Chargers)
4. Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals)
5. Jalen Hurts (Philadelphia Eagles)

1. Ryan Tannehill (Tennessee Titans)
2. Mitch Trubisky (Pittsburgh Steelers)
3. Baker Mayfield (Carolina Panthers)
4. Russell Wilson (Denver Broncos)
5. Derek Carr (Las Vegas Raiders)

The #Broncos gave Russell Wilson a $245 million contract to lock him up for 7 years and they're ranked dead last in points per game in the NFL.

They also scarified their future by giving away two 1st round picks, two 2nd round picks and 3 players.

This. Is. Bad.
