Prescott completed 14 of 24 pass attempts for 153 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in Sunday's 42-10 loss to the 49ers. He added one carry for two yards.

San Francisco's vaunted defense gave Prescott fits all game long, sacking the quarterback three times and forcing three interceptions in Sunday's one-sided affair, although two of the picks came in the fourth quarter when Dallas was in desperation mode. Prescott was inaccurate when given time in the pocket, airmailing an open Luke Schoonmaker on a third-down pass in the first half before leading Brandin Cooks out of bounds on a deep shot later in the contest. The 30-year-old had done a good job of protecting the ball with just one turnover over his four previous starts, so its fair to write this off as a down game against a tough opponent. Prescott has yet to throw for 300 yards in any game this season, but that could change with a potential bounce-back performance against the Chargers' league-worst pass defense next Monday.

Purdy completed 17 of 24 pass attempts for 252 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 42-10 blowout win over the Cowboys.

Purdy walked into a primetime matchup against a Dallas defense that held three of its previous four opponents to 10 or fewer points, and he casually threw four touchdowns en route to a comfortable victory. Credit also has to be given to San Francisco's offensive line, which limited the Cowboys' ferocious pass rush to just one sack Sunday. Purdy set a new career high with his four touchdown tosses in the blowout, which comes on the heels of a 95 percent completion performance against Arizona last week. The 23-year-old has already proven that last year's success was not a flash in the pan -- now the question becomes how high his ceiling can rise as a fantasy asset. Purdy will now lead the 5-0 49ers into a road matchup against the Browns next Sunday.

Tannehill completed 23 of 34 passes for 264 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Colts.

Tannehill overcame a slow first half to deliver his highest passing yardage total of the season. He showed particular rapport with DeAndre Hopkins, as the duo connected for three completions of at least 20 yards. While Tannehill has averaged a solid 7.4 yards per attempt on 142 passes this season, he has only three total touchdowns across five games, as the focus of the Titans' offense remains on the rushing attack.

Minshew completed 11 of 14 passes for 155 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Titans.

Minshew entered the game late in the second quarter after Anthony Richardson suffered a shoulder injury. The Colts had a modest 10-6 lead at the time, and Minshew moved the offense efficiently enough to keep that lead -- though Zack Moss proved to be the primary force for the unit. The extent of Richardson's injury is not yet clear, and Minshew could be in line to start in Week 6 in a pivotal divisional matchup against the Jaguars.

Wilson completed 19 of 26 pass attempts for 199 yards, no touchdowns and one interception while rushing three times for 26 yards in Sunday's 31-21 win over Denver.

Wilson was not involved in either of the Jets' trips to the end zone Sunday, as the team scored via Breece Hall's rushing touchdown and cornerback Bryce Hall's defensive touchdown. The quarterback's lone turnover came on a forced throw to tight end C.J. Uzomah near the end of the first half. He also fumbled twice but did not lose possession on either gaffe. Fortunately for Wilson, the Broncos offense continues to be inept, and the ill-timed pick did not cost his team its second win. The 24-year-old won't be afforded as many mulligans next Sunday against an Eagles defense that ranks near the top of the league through five weeks.

Carr completed 18 of 26 passes for 183 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 34-0 win over the Patriots.

Carr wasn't asked to do much as the Saints held a substantial lead for much of the game, though he delivered when called upon. Despite limited volume, he managed to record his first multi-touchdown performance of the season on strikes from five and six yards away. Even more positive is the fact that Carr tallied three completions of at least 20 yards, a good sign regarding the health of his shoulder heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Texans.

Hill rushed three times for 19 yards and caught his lone target for one yard during Sunday's 34-0 win against the Patriots.

Hill fulfilled his usual jack-of-all-trades role in New Orleans' offense, including six plays on which he lined up as a quarterback in the shotgun. The 33-year-old did not attempt a pass while behind center; instead, he was once again used as a wrinkle in the running game, either handing off to running back Alvin Kamara or rushing himself. The 221-pound quarterback tallied the Saints' third-most rushing attempts and yards behind Kamara (22 carries for 80 yards) and rookie Kendre Miller (12 carries for 37 yards). Hill's biggest impact this season has come while lined up at quarterback, during which he's tallied 23 carries for 120 yards through five games. Meanwhile, he's attempted just two passes while catching four of six targets for 16 yards. His value as a mobile quarterback still doesn't justify much relevance in fantasy lineups. He'll look to tally more carries Week 6 versus Houston.

Cousins completed 29 of 47 passes for 284 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Kansas City.

Despite playing the fourth quarter without Justin Jefferson (hamstring), Cousins still tossed multiple TDs for the fifth straight game to begin the season, hitting rookie Jordan Addison for a five-yard strike just before halftime before finding Alexander Mattison on a nine-yard screen early in the fourth. Cousins very nearly connected with Mattison for another TD and what would have been the tying score late in the game, but the running back dropped the pass. Jefferson's status for Week 6 against the Bears is still up in the air, and his availability could have a big impact on the QB's chances of extending his streak of productive games.

Mahomes completed 31 of 41 passes for 281 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-20 win over Minnesota.

The Kansas City passing game had trouble getting going in the first half, but Mahomes cranked it up in the third quarter and hit Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce (ankle) for scores to break open a 13-13 tie. The perennial MVP candidate has tossed multiple touchdowns in four of five games to begin the season, leading to a 10:4 TD:INT, and Mahomes could be poised for a huge performance in Week 6 against a Broncos secondary that's already coughed up two four-TD performances to quarterbacks this season.

Pickett completed 18 of 32 passes for 224 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Ravens.

Pickett was surprisingly able to suit up after suffering a knee injury in Week 4, and he delivered one of his better performances of the season. In addition to averaging 7.0 yards per attempt, he also managed to not turn the ball over for the second time in five games on the campaign. The highlight of his day came with just over one minute remaining in the fourth quarter, when he delivered a 41-yard touchdown pass deep down the right sideline to George Pickens. Even given the relatively positive effort, Pickett has yet to top 235 passing yards in a game this season and has only one multi-touchdown performance.
