How about Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud? Yes, his Texans are 3-5, but he has played as close to flawless football as one can. He is currently fifth in the NFL in total EPA while throwing 16 touchdowns to just two interceptions. And Stroud isn't doing this by playing it safe. His 32 impact plays are the second-most in the NFL.

Stroud 5th in EPA with 16 TDs, 2 INTs; 32 impact plays despite 3-5 record.

Despite the Texans' 3-5 record, Stroud has played flawless football; he is fifth in the NFL in total EPA with 16 touchdowns to just two interceptions; he has 32 impact plays (second-most in the NFL) and the fourth-highest aDOT among all quarterbacks with at least 100 dropbacks; the source notes that should he lead the Texans to the playoffs after an 0-4 start, he would rightfully get MVP consideration.
