Wilson still might not be the hottest quarterback at the moment. Ben Roethlisberger's last two games were symphonies of vertical passing. He makes 25-yard passes up the seam look routine. On a per-game basis, he'd be either No. 1 or No. 2 on this list. It would be a delicious Super Bowl rematch if Roethlisberger faced his old coordinator Bruce Arians and the Cardinals in Santa Clara this February. ... Cam Newton is also playing his best over the last month. He throws the ball 55 yards off his back foot and he does it more accurately this year. The play below is his defining throw each week: A laser that tears through the guts of the defense, allowing no time for the opposition to react. I see the MVP race as an even three man battle heading into the home stretch, with Brady still very much alive. The next four weeks should tell us the winner.
