#3 – Mike Williams, Los Angeles Chargers
The Los Angeles Chargers lost Keenan Allen early to injury in their 24-19 win against the Las Vegas Raiders. As a result, many expected Mike Williams to put up monster numbers. As it transpired, he could only manage two receptions for 10 yards on four targets in the game.
Justin Herbert threw more at the relatively unknown DeAndre Carter in Allen’s absence. Williams will be hoping to be targeted in the Chargers’ Thursday Night Football matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs, a game that could easily become a shootout.

#4 – Trey Lance, San Francisco 49ers
Despite the horrendous weather conditions in the San Francisco 49ers’ 19-10 loss to the Chicago Bears, Trey Lance will be hoping for a much better Week 2. The Niners QB only completed 46% of his throws, going 13/28 and 164 yards. He failed to pass for a touchdown and threw an interception.
San Francisco hosts the Seattle Seahawks in Week 2, and in better weather hopefully Lance has an improved performance.
#5 – Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers had a terrible Week 1 performance in the team's 23-7 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Rodgers has ruled the NFC North in recent years, however, he seemed lost without Davante Adams. Adams was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders in the 2022 offseason.
Rodgers failed to throw for a touchdown on the day, going 22/34 and just 195 yards. He also took four sacks and ended the day with a quarterback rating of just 16.1.
The Packers host the Chicago Bears in Week 2, a matchup that has been favorable to Rodgers in recent times. He will be hoping his excellent performances against Chicago continue.
