Experts looked at the quarterbacks who play against the New Orleans Saints and the Buffalo Bills in 2026.

Main Body

The experts looked at numbers and news for the Saints' games. They put players in four groups. Jordan Love and Lamar Jackson are in the best group. Deshaun Watson is in the worst group. For the Bills' games, Matthew Stafford is the best player. Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes are also very good. Some players, like Geno Smith, do not play well every time. Some teams have problems. The Las Vegas Raiders and Minnesota Vikings do not have one clear leader. New players and old players are fighting for the main job.
