The NFL's Most Valuable Player race is starting to heat up as we enter the second half of the season, and the hottest contender for the award may be quarterback . His second-year leap cannot be understated. After going 5-10-1 as the starter last season, his Cardinals are now sitting at 6-3 and are in a three-way tie for first place in the NFC West. quarterback has ceded considerable ground to Murray in both the divisional race and the MVP race lately. It started with Arizona's overtime victory over the Seahawks a few weeks ago and may have culminated with Murray's Hail Mary to wide receiver to beat the in Week 10. If Murray does go on to win the award, that play will likely be remembered as his MVP moment.As great as that play was, this week's "numbers to know" will highlight one of Murray's most impre sive statistics this season. Also in this piece, we'll discu s a scoring streak that proves the Tyreek Hill Jersey are more than just a defensive powerhouse. They can put up points on offense, too, and the recent play of quarterback is a big reason why.Before we jump into those stats, though, let's take a look around the at some other numbers to know from Week 10.The have a big problem, and it's their third-down offense. They faced nine third-down situations in their 27-17 lo s to the on Sunday, and convertedzeroof them. Week 10 marked the first time they failed to convert a single third down since the 2004 season. They've converted Patrick Mahomes II Jersey just seven out of 30 third-down conversions over the past three games (23.3%). Philly also went for it on fourth down three times and converted just once against the Giants. Each of the Eagles' last two drives of the game ended with a turnover on downs. Quarterback didn't turn the ball over on Sunday, but he couldn't keep the chains moving on these crucial downs. He was 0-for-6 pa sing on third down and took two sacks. Wentz also failed to throw or run for a touchdown for the first time all season. He can't afford to be too cautious with the Eagles now at 3-5-1 on the season. They're still in first place in the NFC East, but they'll only hold onto that position if Wentz can be a playmaker for this shaky Philadelphia offense. That may require him to take some risks.Protecting the football wasn't enough for the Eagles, but it's starting to look like a winning formula for the Giants. Quarterback has now gonetwostraight games without turning the ball over. This is the first time all season that he's strung together multiple turnover-le s games, and as a result, the Giants are 2-0 during this stretch. They're now 3-7 on the season and, somehow, have sole po se sion of second place in the NFC East.Jones, unlike Wentz, found ways to be a playmaker on Sunday without taking unnece sary risks. While his pa sing was solid, Jones did a considerable amount of damage with his legs. He scored a 34-yard rushing touchdown on the opening drive of the game redeeming himself for the infamous tripping incident from a few weeks ago and ended Darwin Thompson Jersey up leading the team with 64 yards on nine carries. The Giants have yet to defeat a team from outside their horrible division this season, but New York is trending in the right direction and appears to be the biggest threat to Philadelphia for the NFC East lead. The experiment is going south quickly. On Sunday, the second-year quarterback threw a career-highfourinterceptions in a 37-12 lo s to the . The Raiders, before this game, only had three interceptions on the season. Lock has now thrown 10 interceptions in five games since returning from a shoulder injury. Unle s he's still operating at le s than full strength, these mistakes are starting to look like more than just growing pains.The thought they finally had their quarterback situation figured out at the end of last year when Lock rattled off four wins in five starts. Now, it's tough to tell what the future holds for the former second-round draft pick. Denver is 3-6 on the season and 2-5 with Lock as the starter. If the Broncos wind up with a top-10 pick in next year's draft, there's very little stopping them from considering a quarterback at this point. Lock must slow his regre sion and turn things around in these last seven games to secure his job into the future.Don't look now, but the are rolling. They've wonfivegames in a row and are now just a half-game behind the Buffalo Bills for first place in the AFC East at 6-3. This is their longest winning streak since the 2016 season. Three of those wins, including a 29-21 win over the on Sunday, have come with rookie at quarterback. His performances have not been otherworldly, but he's thrown five touchdown pa ses and has yet to throw an interception. The Dolphins have a strong defense Eric Fisher Jersey and are playing complementary football, so they don't need Tagovailoa to be a world-beater with his arm. They're winning games while he learns the ropes and will only get better as he becomes more comfortable in Miami's offense. Tagovailoa was drafted to usher in a new era for this franchise, but who knew the transformation would come so quick? The Dolphins, who went 5-11 in 2019, have already surpa sed their win total from last season. Tagovailoa is quickly gaining ground in the Rookie of the Year race, and head coach Brian Flores deserves some Coach of the Year consideration.If you don't know the name J.C. Jackson yet, you will soon. The cornerback currently leads the NFL withsixinterceptions, after recording a pick in each of the past five games. His interception Tyrann Mathieu Jersey on Sunday night killed a drive just before halftime and preserved New England's three-point lead going into the second half. That was the only statistic he recorded in the 23-17 decision, but it went a long way in securing the victory.People were writing off the Patriots when they fell to 2-5 a few weeks ago, but they've won two gritty games in a row since then. New England's offense is not a potent force, so takeaways are huge for this team. The Patriots have 15 total takeaways on the season (11 interceptions and four fumble recoveries), which ranks tied for 4th in the NFL. If the Patriots find their way back into the playoff race, it'll probably be due to the opportunities created by Jackson and company on defense. The Hail Mary that Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray threw to beat the Buffalo Bills 32-30 on Sunday took home all the headlines, but Murray's rushing production is a huge reason why Arizona is currently sitting at 6-3. Murray now has10rushing touchdowns on the season, after finding the end zone twice on the ground versus the Bills. He is the first quarterback to score 10 rushing touchdowns in a single season since did it during his 2015 MVP campaign. He is also the first quarterback to score a rushing touchdown in five straight games since the dawn of the era.Murray is the best dual-threat quarterback in the NFL right now. He's tu
