Prescott completed 34 of 54 passes for 258 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 23-13 loss to the Packers. He also rushed twice for seven yards.

Prescott threw for just 86 yards with two interceptions in the first half, and the Cowboys took a 17-0 deficit into the locker room. He was only moderately more effective in the second half as Dallas looked out of sorts offensively for a second consecutive game in primetime. Prescott's lone touchdown pass was a six-yarder to Ryan Flournoy in the final minute of the fourth quarter. Dallas dropped to 2-4 with Sunday night's loss, and Dak has an ugly 4:4 TD:INT over his last four starts after posting a 6:1 mark through Week 2. Prescott will try to snap a two-game losing streak in Week 7 on MNF against the Eagles, who have dropped four straight.

Love completed 23 of 41 passes for 276 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Cowboys. He also rushed twice for 14 yards and a touchdown.

Love started hot, throwing for 109 yards on the opening drive while making up for some offensive penalties before eventually tossing a nine-yard touchdown pass to Matthew Golden. Love was picked off on the next possession, and Golden just brushed the Dallas defender on the way to the ground to prevent what would otherwise have been a pick-six. The Packers intercepted Dak Prescott on the ensuing drive and never looked back, pulling away for a convincing win to improve to 4-2. Love was held to a single touchdown pass for the first time this season after five consecutive two-touchdown performances through the air, but he got his customary second touchdown on the ground with a one-yard rushing score that gave the Packers a 17-0 lead just before halftime. After coming 24 yards short of his fourth 300-yard passing performance, Love is well positioned to post big numbers through the air again in Week 7 against Detroit's vulnerable secondary.

Daniels completed 22 of 43 passes for 164 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions in Sunday's 26-19 overtime loss to the Steelers. He added 39 rushing yards on four carries.

The rookie quarterback struggled in his third career start, but Daniels did connect with Emeka Egbuka on a two-yard score in the second quarter and had Tampa Bay in front 16-3 to begin the fourth. Once Aaron Rodgers began putting points on the board, though, Daniels buckled under the pressure and threw both his INTs. Baker Mayfield (thumb) has yet to return to practice, giving Daniels good odds of making his fourth straight start in Week 7 against the Panthers, but his 3:5 TD:INT since the veteran QB went down doesn't make him a very appealing fantasy option.

Rodgers completed 33 of 49 passes for 253 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 26-19 overtime win over the Buccaneers.

Down 16-3 to begin the fourth quarter, Rodgers began the comeback with a five-yard TD pass to Darnell Washington before leading the Steelers on three straight field-goal drives. The veteran QB then put together a 12-play, 70-yard drive to begin OT that was capped with a six-yard score to Germie Bernard. Rodgers has tossed multiple touchdowns in four straight games, posting an 11:4 TD:INT over that stretch and giving him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 7 trip to Paris to face the Saints.

McCarthy replaced Jameis Winston in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints, completing 11 of 21 passes for 243 yards and one touchdown with one interception.

After Winston tossed his second pick of the game, this one in New York territory, New Orleans turned the ensuing possession into a two-play TD drive to go ahead 34-10. McCarthy stepped in and immediately threw an INT of his own on his first drive, but he settled in after that and led the Giants on three straight scoring drives as they mounted a desperate, but ultimately unsuccessful, comeback. It's not clear which QB will get the start in Week 7 against the Texans, but coach John Harbaugh may view a Week 8 bye as a better time to make a permanent switch to McCarthy.

Stafford was 25-for-33 passing for 222 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions during Sunday's 18-16 defeat against the Cardinals.

Stafford's streak of outings with at least 300 yards passing came to a close at four games, but he offset it with his fourth performance with multiple TD passes through the first six weeks of the season. With the Rams sitting at 2-4 and seeking to right the ship, he does have a get-right game on paper next Sunday in Las Vegas, and all of the key skill-position players at his disposal are healthy, including WRs Puka Nacua and Davante Adams and RB Kyren Williams. As a result, an outburst from Stafford for fantasy purposes is always possible.

Winston completed 14 of 26 passes for 152 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions before being benched in favor of J.J. McCarthy during Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints.

After Winston's second INT of the game in the fourth quarter, he got the hook and watched McCarthy nearly lead a comeback from a 34-10 deficit. The performance by McCarthy could well earn him his first start as a Giant in Week 7 against the Texans, or coach John Harbaugh could stick with Winston for another week until re-evaluating the situation during the team's Week 8 bye. If Winston is back under center, he'll be sporting a 7:5 TD:INT through five games

Mahomes completed 23 of 30 passes for 272 yards, no touchdowns and one interception and rushed five times for 16 yards during Sunday's 22-6 win versus the Chargers.

The Chiefs offense continues to be the Kenneth Walker show, as the No. 1 RB reeled off 100-plus rushing yards for the fourth time in five appearances to begin his tenure with the team. Meanwhile, Mahomes failed to record a touchdown pass for the first time this season after tossing multiple TDs in each of the first four contests. Considering Kansas City's receiving corps is particularly ravaged by injuries at the moment, the offense may continue to lean more on Walker's legs than Mahomes' right arm next Sunday at Seattle.

Herbert completed 22 of 37 passes for 204 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Chiefs. He also rushed five times for 26 yards.

Herbert continued to struggle but once again got little help from his teammates. Top wide receiver Ladd McConkey (concussion) exited early and the Chargers couldn't generate much on the ground, as Herbert led the team in rushing yards. Herbert was held without a touchdown for the first time this season after throwing exactly one touchdown pass in each of the previous five games. The 0-6 Chargers are the first team to six losses this season, as the Titans notched their first win of the season over the Colts on Sunday to improve to 1-5, while the winless Dolphins were on bye. Herbert will be on bye in Week 7 before his next opportunity to snap this season-opening losing streak in a nominal road game against the Rams in Week 8.

Shough completed 16 of 30 passes for 144 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants. He added 32 yards and a TD on five carries.

While he didn't produce much yardage, Shough kept the Saints' offense humming, connecting with Bryce Lance, Alvin Kamara and Chris Olave for scores through the air while adding a one-yard touchdown on the ground in the third quarter. Shough has been playing through a couple broken bones in his non-throwing hand, which could help explain why he has just 242 passing yards over the last two weeks, but the second-year QB showed he can be plenty productive despite the injury. Shough will take a 12:5 TD:INT through six games into a Week 7 tilt against the Steelers in Paris.
