Highest adjusted completion % this season Caleb Williams 86.1% Kyler Murray 82.0% Lamar Jackson Via @PFF on X

What happened: Lamar Jackson (80.9%), Jayden Daniels (80.8%), and Geno Smith (80.5%) round out the league's top five in adjusted accuracy this season, per PFF. Less than half a percentage point separates the third through fifth spots on the leaderboard.

Why it matters: Williams pairs that league-best accuracy mark with a short-area passing profile, averaging an NFL-low 5.9 air yards per attempt. His efficiency still translated into high-volume production on Thursday, when he became the first Chicago quarterback to log consecutive 300-yard passing games in a 30-24 win over New England, per Adam Schefter.

By the numbers: Williams completed 22 of 33 passes for 308 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions against New England. Among the other top-five passers, Jackson's Baltimore squad sits at 4-2 and holds the seventh seed following a 13-10 loss at Cleveland on Oct. 18.

What to watch: Jackson is listed as questionable with an ankle injury after logging a limited practice session on Thursday.
