From the article

Jacoby Brissett has maintained himself as a good game manager but isn't considered an elite quarterback, and probably never will. In 2026, before the Giants game, he was ranked #17 in total passing yards (652), #6 in attempts (117), #64 in yards per attempt (5.6), and tied for sixth in touchdown passes (4) against only one interception. Now, Brissett is ranked #20. The most glaring stat change is that his interception column went from one to four.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Brissett's interception spike (1 to 4) and ranking drop signal declining efficiency as Cardinals starter.

Cardinals starting QB ranked #20 in passing yards (pre-Giants: #17 with 652 yards) and #6 in attempts (117); yards per attempt at #64 (5.6); tied for 6th in TDs (4) but interceptions jumped from 1 to 4 after Giants loss. Described as 'a good game manager but isn't considered an elite quarterback, and probably never will.' Durable 11-year veteran who has mainly been a backup but thrust into starting role with Arizona in 2026.
