Russell Wilson and Philip Rivers both earned a nod:

Wilson was named the best red-zone QB and also the best against the blitz:

Best red zone quarterback

Russell Wilson
, Seattle Seahawks
Wilson leads the league with nine big-time throws in the red zone, three more than the next quarterback. His 15 touchdowns inside the opponent’s 20-yard line are good for fifth best, and he’s avoiding taking sacks in scoring range, having gone down just once on his 36 red zone dropbacks.

Best quarterback against the blitz

Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks
When the defense sends extra rushers, Wilson leads the NFL with his 8-0 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He has a 129.4 passer rating and has uncorked 10 big-time throws against the blitz to lead the league.

Meanwhile, Rivers was named the best QB at throwing a post route:

Best QB by route: Post

Philip Rivers, Los Angeles Chargers
While Jared Goff leads the league with 16 completions on post routes, Rivers leads all quarterbacks with four touchdowns. He sports a whopping 30.1 average depth of target on posts, good for second highest in the league.
