Jacoby Brissett just took a nosedive in NFL.com’s weekly quarterback rankings, dropping a full nine spots to No. 27 after going up against our Hawks. That’s right, the Emerald City defense didn’t just win a game on September 20, 2026; they straight up ruined a man’s week and his professional standing.

Our Hawks Made Brissett Drop Like a Rock

Nick Shook over at NFL.com keeps those quarterback rankings updated weekly, and let me tell you, Brissett’s recent outing against the Seahawks was absolutely brutal for his stock. He plummeted all the way to No. 27 in the league, sliding right behind the Browns’ Deshaun Watson and just barely ahead of the Bucs’ Baker Mayfield. Nine spots, people! That’s not just a drop; that’s a full-on collapse, and it happened right after our defense got done with him. You love to see it when the 12s make that kind of impact!

From High Point to Low Point, Thanks to Seattle

If you’ve been watching, Brissett’s had a wild ride in just two games. He saw a “very high point” after his team’s win over the Chargers, which gave him a nice jump in those same rankings. But then he faced the Seahawks at State Farm Stadium, and what happened? Our boys handed the Cardinals a brutal 31-7 defeat. That game was his “very low one,” and it clearly left a mark on the ranking pundits. It makes you wonder, is this dude ever gonna settle in? Is he closer to that Chargers performance or the absolute shellacking he took from our defense? Should he even be at 27th? Lower?

What’s Next for the Cardinals?

While Brissett’s dealing with the fallout, the Cardinals do catch a break next week, as they don’t have to face the Giants with their starting quarterback in Week Four. But for Brissett, the questions remain. Our Hawks showed exactly what kind of game can tank a QB’s perception. Can’t wait to see who’s next on the schedule to feel the power of the Emerald City!
