Goff has guys who are doing historical things....and so in any other year, he may be #1--which says a lot for a 3rd year minus 1 Jef Fisher year.....that should be

Drew Brees is on pace to break the NFL record for completion percentage (76.9), passer rating (126.9) and PFF QB record for overall grade (95.6). Enough said.
Calling Mahomes the second-best quarterback this season is no knock on him. He’s on pace for the second-most touchdowns and third-most yards in a single season all-time. At the same time, his 11 turnover-worthy plays rank 19th at the position and are six more than Brees.
Jared Goff has been a sight to behold this season. You can talk scheme all you want, but the fact of the matter is that Goff has the most big-time throws of any quarterback this season (29). Those are throws that require special ball placement and timing down the field and there’s no scheme that can ‘fake’ them.
