NFL Week 1 Wrap Up

So after a long wait finally the NFL Season is here and Week 1 is officially over. There is not much you can learn from just one game but there is no harm in trying. First off is there any doubt Drew Brees is the best QB in the league i know it was against the Lions but 6 TDs is always an impressive stat line. Another observation is that maybe some teams aren't as bad as some are expecting. Take the Monday Night double header everybody and their mother predicted that the Chargers and Patriots would crush the Raiders and Bills, but in New England it took 2 very late touchdowns for the Pats to win by 1 and the Chargers scored a TD with 20 seconds left to edge the Raiders 24-20. The Chiefs had a good showing against the Ravens on the road losing 38-24 but the score doesn't really tell the story. A game that was sort of lost in the shuffle was the 49ers pulling off an upset against the Cardinals in Arizona. Mark Sanchez won his first pro game in a 24-7 win over the Texans. Now for the 5 Best and 5 Worst of Week 1.

TOP 5 BEST OF WEEK 1
1. Drew Brees---26 for 34 358 Yards 6 TDs---I don't think i have to explain why this is the best performance.

2. Tony Romo---16 for 27 353 Yards 3 TDs---For those who thought the Cowboys couldn't move the ball without T.O., Romo had his best day as a pro.

3. Adrian Peterson---25 Carries 180 Yards 3 TDs---Minnesota made a lot of off season news with the signing of Bret Favre but without a doubt Peterson's play will determine how far Minnesota goes.

4. Joe Flacco---26 for 43 307 Yards 3 TDs---For years Baltimore as been known for their defense it looks like Flacco wants to change that.

5. Reggie Wayne---10 Receptions 162 Yards 1 TD---With Harrison gone and Gonzalez hurt Wayne with have to continue to put up these type of numbers for the Colts.

TOP 5 WORST
1. Cincinnati Bengals---Only the Bengals, no wait sorry the Bungles could lose a game after scoring a TD with 30 seconds left. And some people had them in the Playoffs.

2. Jake Delhomme---4 INTS 1 Lost Fumble---Can anyone explain what the hell has happened to Delhomme, 11 Turnovers in his last 2 games, hard to imagine he led the Panthers to the Super Bowl a couple years back.

3. Jay Cutler--4 INTS 1 TD---So the Bears fans have been waiting for a franchise quarterback for a long time, if Cutler keeps playing like that they might have to wait a little longer.

4. Leodis McKelvin---After the Pats made the game 24-19 all McKelvin had to do was not fumble the kickoff return, well he did and the Patriots win 25-24.

5. Detroit Lions---I don't want to rub salt in the wound but with the loss at New Orleans that is now 18 Straight Regular season losses.
