From Matthew Stafford to Jared Goff, to Josh Allen and Drake Maye, here are the passer rating leaders with the NFL regular season nearing an end.

The NFL regular season enters the final act of 2025, with plenty of teams still battling for a playoff spot in each division. It's a quarterback league (theoretically), so plenty of focus is directed at the position as the critical factor for those postseason cheers—or jeers.

Pass or fail, indeed. All the puns. All the literal meanings.

Which QBs have been the best in 2025?

This season has been another injury-riddled slate for NFL quarterbacks, with over 40 taking snaps as a team's starter. But, as the season nears the end of December, the passing hierarchy has unfolded to reveal the NFL's most prolific slingers in the league.

One way to back up such a claim is to look at the passer rating, which is defined as the "NFL formula measuring quarterback passing efficiency using completions, yards, touchdowns, and interceptions, scaled from 0 to 158.3."
