Including the Steelers and Mason Rudolph, 11 of the 15 teams that won last week started a QB who had not yet turned 27; Pittsburgh’s victory marked the 39th win by a starting QB age 26 or younger this season.
In Week 5, four games matched up youthful QBs. Gardner Minshew and the Jaguars were in Carolina to play Kyle Allen and the Panthers; Jameis Winston and the Buccaneers were in New Orleans to play Teddy Bridgewater and the Saints; Luke Faulk and the Jets were in Philadelphia to meet Carson Wentz and the Eagles; Rudolph’s Steelers were hosting the Ravens and Lamar Jackson.

With all that said, the game to watch in Week 5 featured a couple veteran passers. (Dak Prescott is 26, so he qualifies.) The NFL schedule this week blessed us with Packers vs. Cowboys for the first time in a couple years.
When they last met, Green Bay extended what has become a recent trend of dominance over Dallas. The Packers entered Week 5 of this season having won five of their last six games against the Cowboys, tilting the all-time series to 15-13 in favor of Green Bay. Much of that has been because of the play of Aaron Rodgers.
