Tyler Thigpen, QB, Chiefs –Silenced his skeptics with a 266-yard, three-touchdown outing, with 26 rushing yards thrown in for good measure.

Peyton Manning, QB, Colts – Just another day at the office, pairing a modest 240 passing yards with yet another touchdown trifecta.

Jay Feely, K, Jets – Connected on all four of his field goal attempts, including a 55-yarder, plus five PATs.

GOATS

Marc Bulger, QB, Rams – Managed just 65 yards passing before being yanked.

Aaron Rodgers, QB, Packers – Threw for only 142 yards without a score.

Jake Delhomme, QB, Panthers – Collected one touchdown, but threw four interceptions while amassing a paltry 72 yards.

Chris Johnson, RB, Titans – Limited by the Bears to just eight rushing and 15 receiving yards.

Steve Slaton, RB, Texans – Could only penetrate the Ravens for seven rushing and 17 receiving yards.

Kevin Faulk, RB, Patriots – Barely made a dent in the Bills with 18 total yards.

Jamaal Charles, RB, Chiefs – An injury ruined his first start, limiting him to three carries for eight yards.

Braylon Edwards, WR, Browns – Held to just one 15-yard catch.

Steve Smith, WR, Panthers – His only reception went for 9 yards.

Jerricho Cotchery, WR, Jets – His team racked up 47 points, but all he got was a single 18-yard catch.

Laveranues Coles, WR, Jets – His only catch in that same 47-point onslaught traveled 14 yards.

Torry Holt, WR, Rams – How about one for 5 yards?

Lee Evans, WR, Bills – Do I hear two for 22?

Bernard Berrian, WR, Vikings – OK, he takes the cake with a big fat zero-for-zero.

Chris Chambers, WR, Chargers – He was active, but you wouldn’t know it from the box score. He, too, laid a goose egg.

SURPRISES

Brady Quinn, QB, Browns – Had a sharp debut, passing for 239 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions.
