2023 QB Index: Where Does Trevor Lawrence Rank During Win Streak?

No matter how many NFL seasons take place, each year still feels like a once-in-a-lifetime roller-coaster. No two games are the same. Anyone can lose to anyone. And anything can happen.
That, so far, has summed up the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2023 ... just like it did in 2022. Through seven games, Jaguars are now 5-2 and are riding a four-game winning streak.
Normally with team success comes quarterback success and, ultimately, recognition. Quarterback wins themselves are simply not a thing, but the perception of quarterbacks does often go hand-in-hand with how their team is playing.
One example is Trevor Lawrence and the NFL.com quarterback index. Lawrence has seen highs and lows this season, but now the Jaguars are hitting their stride on a four-game winning streak and Lawrence is starting to see his stock rise.
After dipping all the way to No. 18 in the rankings a few weeks ago, Lawrence raised to No. 8 overall this week -- and that was even before he gutted out a tough, gritty performance in a 31-24 win over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football.
"Another week, another encouraging performance for Lawrence, who hasn’t put together four stellar quarters of football yet this season but is getting closer with each game. His best throw against the Colts came via a bullet ripped down the sideline to Christian Kirk, who capitalized on a mistake made by rookie JuJu Brents to race past the coverage for a 29-yard touchdown," NFL.com said.
"Lawrence was sharp, but he didn’t rack up a ton of yards because his defense provided him with short fields on more than one occasion. He made one mistake, misjudging his receivers’ spacing and throwing directly into coverage, where Brents got one back on Lawrence with an interception. But most importantly, Lawrence got the job done despite tweaking his left knee."
Here is where we will track Lawrence's rank in the QB Index each week:
Week 1: 7
Week 2: 5
Week 3: 6
Week 4: 11
Week 5: 18
Week 6: 11
Week 7: 8
