– Donovan McNabb (240 yards, 3 TD) shredded a dinged-up Giants secondary.
– Mark Sanchez (265 yards, 2 TD) was able to take advantage of the Dolphins young CBs.
– Alex Smith (198 yards, TD, INT) had a better-than-expected game against the Colts’ stingy pass defense.
– Neither Matthew Stafford (168 yards, INT) nor Marc Bulger (176 yards, INT) played well even though they both had great matchups.
– Tony Romo (256 yards, 3 TD) posted big numbers for the third straight week. He has 918 yards and 8 TD over that span, but faces a tough test in Philly next week.
– Jay Cutler (225 yards, INT) had a very disappointing day against the Browns.
– Coming into Week 8, the Titans had the league’s worst pass defense, so David Garrard’s performance (139 yards, 2 INT) is a major disappointment.
– Vince Young completed 15/18 passes (for 125 yards and TD) en route to a nice day. He also ran 12 times for 30 yards. If Young wants to get back to what made him so successful in his rookie season, he needs to run the ball.
– Kurt Warner (242 yards, 2 TD, 5 INT) turned the ball over six times.
– Brett Favre (244 yards, 4 TD) stuck it to his old team. He was sharp, but the Packers weren’t able to put much pressure on him.
– Aaron Rodgers (287 yards, 3 TD) played well in a tough situation, or at least in the second half. He is still taking sacks that he shouldn’t be.
