Week 13 has arrived, and there are no byes this week, which means we have more players to rank and choose from! Here are this week’s QB Power Rankings!

Saquon Barkley, Eagles

He is the best RB in the NFL right now.

Great matchup vs. the Jags, and he is the Texans most reliable player on offense.

De’Von Achane, Dolphins

He is one of the most explosive players in the NFL and is a threat as a runner and a receiver. 

Derrick Henry, Ravens

The colder it gets, the better he gets. He scores TDs and he will be relied upon heavily against Philly. 

Bijan Robinson, Falcons

Rested coming off the bye and he gets so much volume in the Falcons offense. 

Jahmyr Gibbs, Lions

DETROIT, MICHIGAN – NOVEMBER 19: Jahmyr Gibbs #26 of the Detroit Lions splits a pair of Chicago Bears defenders during the first half of a game at Ford Field on November 19, 2023 in Detroit, Michigan. (Photo by Gregory Shamus/Getty Images)

Heavily used, scores tons of TDs, and is a threat to take it to the house on any play. 

Christian McCaffrey, 49ers

SANTA CLARA, CA – JANUARY 28: Christian McCaffrey #23 of the San Francisco 49ers rushes for a 1-yard touchdown during the NFC Championship game against the Detroit Lions at Levi’s Stadium on January 28, 2024 in Santa Clara, California.

Purdy’s return should give him a boost. An all-purpose back against a Bills team that struggles against RBs. 

Kyren Williams, Rams

The Saints are one of the worst teams in the league against RBs this season. 

Josh Jacobs, Packers

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS – NOVEMBER 17: Josh Jacobs #8 of the Green Bay Packers carries the ball during an NFL football game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on November 17, 2024 in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Kevin Sabitus/Getty Images)

He is coming off a 3 TD game and the best way to beat Miami is on the ground. 

Breece Hall, Jets

EAST RUTHERFORD, NEW JERSEY – OCTOBER 09: Breece Hall #20 of the New York Jets runs against Jerome Baker #55 of the Miami Dolphins during the second quarter at MetLife Stadium on October 09, 2022 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. (Photo by Edward Diller/Getty Images)

Seattle can be run on, and Hall is coming off his bye week. 

Alvin Kamara, Saints

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA – OCTOBER 29: Alvin Kamara #41 of the New Orleans Saints runs the ball in the game against the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on October 29, 2023 in Indianapolis, Indiana. (Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images)

He is the biggest part of the Saints offense, and the Rams have struggled against RBs this season. 

Chase Brown, Bengals

CINCINNATI, OHIO – DECEMBER 10: Chase Brown #30 of the Cincinnati Bengals carries the ball during the second half of the game against the Indianapolis Colts at Paycor Stadium on December 10, 2023 in Cincinnati, Ohio. (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)

He has established himself as a legit RB1 lately and is coming off his bye week. He impacts the game as a runner and pass catcher. 

Chuba Hubbard, Panthers

CHARLOTTE, NC – AUGUST 21: Chuba Hubbard #30 of the Carolina Panthers runs the ball against DeShon Elliott #32 of the Baltimore Ravens during the first half of a NFL preseason game at Bank of America Stadium on August 21, 2021 in Charlotte, North Carolina. (Photo by Chris Keane/Getty Images)

Even with Jonathan Brooks being activated, Hubbard is still the lead man in Carolina. 

Jonathan Taylor, Colts

ARLINGTON, TX – DECEMBER 04: Jonathan Taylor #28 of the Indianapolis Colts warms up against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on December 4, 2022 in Arlington, Texas. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Getty Images)

The Patriots are one of the worst defenses in the NFL.

Kenneth Walker III, Seahawks

SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA – JANUARY 14: Kenneth Walker III #9 of the Seattle Seahawks runs the ball to score a 7 yard touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers during the second quarter in the NFC Wild Card playoff game at Levi’s Stadium on January 14, 2023 in Santa Clara, California.

The Jets run defense isn’t nearly as good as their pass defense. 

James Cook, Bills

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS – DECEMBER 24: James Cook #28 and Josh Allen #17 of the Buffalo Bills celebrate a touchdown during the second half in the game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on December 24, 2022 in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images)

He is one of many weapons for Josh Allen, but his usage is consistent, and he finds the end zone. 

Bucky Irving, Bucs

TAMPA, FLORIDA – NOVEMBER 10: Bucky Irving #7 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers carries the ball to score a touchdown during the second half of an NFL football game against the San Francisco 49ers at Raymond James Stadium on November 10, 2024 in Tampa, Florida. (Photo by Kevin Sabitus/Getty Images)

Last week, he established himself as the Bucs RB1 over White. He faces a weak Panthers defense this week. 

David Montgomery, Lions

GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN – SEPTEMBER 28: David Montgomery #5 of the Detroit Lions celebrates a touchdown during a game against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on September 28, 2023 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Lions defeated the Packers 34-20. (Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images)

He is a bit banged up, and Gibbs outside run ability gives him an edge in this matchup vs. Chicago. Still, Monty is a TD machine and could score. 

Aaron Jones, Vikings

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA – OCTOBER 20: Aaron Jones #33 of the Minnesota Vikings runs for a touchdown in the first quarter of a game against the Detroit Lions at U.S. Bank Stadium on October 20, 2024 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. (Photo by Stephen Maturen/Getty Images)

Arizona can be run on, and Jones is a good pass catcher, too. 

James Conner, Cardinals

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE – SEPTEMBER 12: James Conner #6 celebrates with DeAndre Hopkins #10 of the Arizona Cardinals after a touchdown during the game against the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium on September 12, 2021 in Nashville, Tennessee. The Cardinals defeated the Titans 38-13. (Photo by Wesley Hitt/Getty Images)

He goes up against one of the top run defenses in the NFL this season. 

D’Andre Swift, Bears

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS – SEPTEMBER 29: D’Andre Swift #4 of the Chicago Bears carries the ball past Byron Young #0 of the Los Angeles Rams during the third quarter at Soldier Field on September 29, 2024 in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images)

He also goes up against one of the league’s best-run defenses. 

Najee Harris, Steelers

PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA – OCTOBER 10: Najee Harris #22 of the Pittsburgh Steelers celebrates a touchdown during the second quarter against the Denver Broncos at Heinz Field on October 10, 2021 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. (Photo by Justin K. Aller/Getty Images)

The Bengals have done a good job vs RBs lately, the way to beat them is through the air. 

Tony Pollard, Titans

DETROIT, MICHIGAN – OCTOBER 27: Tony Pollard #20 of the Tennessee Titans plays against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field on October 27, 2024 in Detroit, Michigan. (Photo by Gregory Shamus/Getty Images)

You never know which Commanders defense is showing up. Pollard could be hit or miss this week. 

Tyrone Tracy Jr., Giants

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – AUGUST 08: Tyrone Tracy Jr. #29 of the New York Giants runs the ball during an NFL football game against the Detroit Lions at MetLife Stadium on August 8, 2024 in East Rutherford, NJ. (Photo by Perry Knotts/Getty Images)

The Giants just aren’t moving the football at all. 

Gus Edwards, Chargers

INGLEWOOD, CALIFORNIA – NOVEMBER 10: Gus Edwards #4 of the Los Angeles Chargers stiff arms Jarvis Brownlee Jr. #29 of the Tennessee Titans in the second quarter of a game at SoFi Stadium on November 10, 2024 in Inglewood, California. (Photo by Harry How/Getty Images)

The Chargers don’t run the ball much anymore; he isn’t very good at it.

The Giants will stack the box against him. 

Nick Chubb, Browns

The Broncos have an elite defense this season. 

Rachaad White, Bucs

He is still involved, but Bucky Irving has taken his RB job. 

Jeremy McNichols, Commanders

LANDOVER, MARYLAND – NOVEMBER 24: Jeremy McNichols #26 of the Washington Commanders runs with the ball against the Dallas Cowboys during the fourth quarter at Northwest Stadium on November 24, 2024 in Landover, Maryland. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images)

Bad matchup, but he looks like he will be the starter due to injuries. 

Isiah Pacheco, Chiefs

He is finally expected back, but how many touches will he get?
