Yeah, I still can't believe it either.

Here are the award winners from Week 5.

Most Valuable Player of Week 5: Trevor Lawrence

The birthday boy was not playing around.

He had his usual handful of questionable decisions and inaccurate throws, but it was apparent all game that Lawrence wasn't leaving without a win.

His game-winning touchdown felt like the epitome of The Trevor Lawrence Experience.

According to Next Gen Stats, he had 8 scrambles for 53 yards and 2 touchdowns. Those plays generated +6.2 Expected Points Added. All of those figures were career-bests for Lawrence.

As we'll get to in tomorrow's film breakdown, there were a few times when he prematurely left the pocket to try to find a running lane. His internal clock was running a tick too fast. He was almost trying too hard.

But that'll happen when you're in a 14-0 hole against Andy Reid and Steve Spagnuolo and Patrick Mahomes. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

The league's best quarterbacks turn up the dial and create plays out of structure when their teams need it. That's exactly what Lawrence did on Monday Night Football.
