NFL 2020: Top 5 quarterback performances from Sunday (Week 5)

#2 Derek Carr

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr

In probably the biggest upset of the season so far, the Las Vegas Raiders were able to top the red-hot defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, and the quarterback was a big reason.

Carr completed 22 of 31 passes for 347 yards, with 3 touchdowns, one interception and a 126.7 passer rating. His best throw went to rookie receiver Henry Ruggs III, who got his first career touchdown on Sunday.

It's safe to say that the Raiders are an underrated team and teams who will face them in the future should look out for Carr and the rest of the company.

#1 Ryan Fitzpatrick

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick

Coming in at No. 1, this is not only a surprise for everyone but for myself as well. The Dolphins' big upset over the 49ers was something the league was talking about, and it was all thanks to one man.

Ryan Fitzpatrick completed 22 of 28 passes for 350 yards, with 3 touchdowns and a 154.5 passer rating. That's a nearly perfect rating.

Could the Dolphins be a threat to win the AFC East and make a playoff run? They have lost to the Bills, New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks so far. These teams are all off to good starts, and considering how banged up the 49ers are, it could have been a one-off game for Miami. Either way, it is something for fans to keep an eye on.
