This was a great week in the NFL filled with upsets, big wins, and playoff picture-shaping moments. Despite six teams on bye (Bengals, Buccaneers, Chiefs, Patriots, Redskins, Steelers) and some blowouts that have been too plentiful this season—eight teams won by 12 points or more—there were compelling storylines everywhere that kept viewers glued to their seats. The NFL is clearly winning the battle for sports fans weekly and I am sure Week Eight will be a landslide too when the numbers are reported, especially with FOX having both the Eagles-Giants NFC showdown and then Favre’s return game to Green Bay.  During Week Seven, FOX’s doubleheader drew 28.4 million viewers for the most viewership since the Super Bowl. You cannot review the action from Week Eight without talking about the highly anticipated Lambeau Field return of former Packers legend and current Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre. No. 4, playing for the hated Vikings, not only returned back to his home of 16 years, but he clearly showed his “former” fans and employers that he has plenty left in his right arm.  Favre and the Vikings dominated the Packers 38-26 in a game very similar to the Vikes’ Week Four win in Minnesota. The Vikings defense didn’t give Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (26-41, 63.4%, 287 yards, 3 TDs, and 0 INTs plus 52 rushing yards) any time in the pocket (six sacks) and Favre put up some big numbers with a little help from his friends. Emerging rookie WR/KR Percy Harvin had a big game producing five catches for 84 yards and one TD plus five kick returns for 175 yards.  And All-World running back Adrian Peterson (25 carries for 97 yards and one touchdown) was tough till the end, but the day clearly belonged to Favre.After enduring a week of being called a “waffler,” “flip-flopper,” “drama queen,” and “traitor,” Favre stepped onto the field and put aside a booing crowd to “stick it” to his old team.  Favre threw a season-high four touchdown passes and was never even touched in the pocket (zero sacks) as he piled up superb passing numbers: 17-28, 244 yards, 4 TDs, and 0 INTs. And of course, like he seems to do every week, Favre set a record for most completions in one venue (passing John Elway’s record), and tied Dan Marino’s NFL record of 21 career games with at least four TD passes.

 After the game, Favre hugged several members of the Packers team and staff including former favorite receivers Donald Driver and Greg Jennings.  The future Pro Football Hall of Famer left the field surrounded by media everywhere and pumped his fist to a mix of cheers and boos. Favre said after the game, “I’m not going to sit here and throw any daggers…We played about as good as we can play . We can play better, but that’s what it was going to take to beat that football team utahjazz xom . That’s the satisfying thing.” Favre added, “I’ve never been one to rub it in anyone’s face…The guys I’ve played with as a Packer, I’ve got a lot of respect for, as I do (for) this organization and these fans.”So with Favre-a-palooza over for the second time in less than a month, let’s take an inventory of what happened.  In two “big” wins over the Packers (scores of 30-23 in Week Four and 38-26 in Week Eight), Favre finished with noteworthy numbers (41-59, 515 yards, 7 TDs, 0 INTs, no sacks allowed and a passer rating well over 130). The Packers, on the other hand, have a 10-13 record since sending their former franchise quarterback to exile in the Meadowlands in 2008.  Favre stated at hispost-game press conference, “What I’ve done here (Green Bay) speaks for itself.” For those unable to interpret Favre’s last comments, I will translate them for you: “Hey Packers GM Ted Thompson and the rest of you haters…How do you like me now?  What!!”With everyone caught up in the Vikings-Packers matchup and all the drama that followed Favre’s revenge homecoming, there were some other serious stories this week that I felt were a little neglected. The Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints were both tested but still continued on their unbeaten ways—both 7-0 .The Indianapolis Colts are the NFL’s No utahjazz co . 1 team (very quietly), but even they have to sweat one out here or there.  In their 16th straight win (franchise record), the Colts rallied from a 14-12 deficit to finally beat the scrappy San Francisco 49ers 18-14 in Indy. The win was a testament to how well rookie head coach Jim Caldwell is keeping a veteran group of players on track without future Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy.  With the win, Caldwell joined Potsy Clark (the 1931 Portsmouth Spartans started 8-0) as the only rookie head coaches in the past 80 years to start the season 7-0. Caldwell leaned on veteran quarterback Peyton Manning (31-48, 347 passing yards, 0 TDs, and 0 INTs) in the win, but it was a great halfback pass from RB Joseph Addai (former high school quarterback) to Reggie Wayne (12 catches for 147 yards and one TD) that was the game-winning score Jazz EnergySolutions Arena tickets – wikipedia .  Also special recognition needs to go out to veteran kicker Matt Stover who was 4-for-4 on field goal attempts. The Saints, who tied their best start in franchise history (the team also started 7-0 in 1991), were involved in a tough game, too.  The Atlanta Falcons, led by their quadruplets (QB Matt Ryan, RB Michael Turner, TE Tony Gonzalez, and WR Roddy White) and their attacking defense, were not going to give New Orleans its usual 40 points and another easy win. The game came down to the final seconds after the Falcons recovered an onside kick.  But Saints safety Darren Sharper (NFL leader with seven INTs) intercepted Matt Ryan’s desperation heave with three seconds left to preserve a 35-27 win.On offense the Falcons ran the ball effectively with Turner (20 times for 151 yards and a touchdown), and their defense put more pressure on Saints QB Drew Brees than I have seen all season (two sacks and numerous other hits).  However, the Saints once again proved that they are the “real deal,” and it is going to be difficult to stop them. Right now their offensive line is providing good protection, Brees is looking like an MVP candidate, the Saints have too many offensive weapons to write down, and their defense has six TDs off turnovers—the Cleveland Browns offense only has five TDs total. I won’t bring up the 1972 Dolphins’ undefeated season yet, because the Saints have a long way to go, but other than games against the Patriots (Week 12), Falcons (Week 14), and Cowboy (Week 15), every other team that the Saints face from here on out has a losing record through eight weeks. The St . Louis Rams and Tennessee Titans both got off the “schnide” by winning their first games of the season. The Rams broke their 17-game losing streak with a road win over the Lions by a score of 17-10.  I would like to have said that quarterback Marc Bulger had a lot to do with the win, but the star of the game clearly was RB Steven Jackson.  The hard runner and perennial Pro Bowl player finally was rewarded for his efforts with some good blocking as he piled up 149 rushing yards and scored his first touchdown of the season. The Rams’ other big play was a touchdown pass from kicker Josh Brown to FB Daniel Fells on a fake field goal in the second quarter.The Tennessee Titans, after a very long bye week, decided to go back to the future by inserting 2006 Rookie of the Year QB Vince Young back into the starting lineup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.  The former franchise quarterback had not started in 22 games and was finally lobbied into the starting lineup by Titans owner Bud Adams. Young responded, passing for numbers (15-18, 125 yards, and 1 TD) plus rushing for 30 yards, including moving the chains on a couple third down runs. As good as Young was in the Titans’ 30-13 win, running back Chris Johnson (see Game Balls) was even better.  One of the NFL’s fastest players streaked to two long touchdown runs in the second half that closed the door on the Jaguars and plucky running back Maurice “Pocket Hercules” Jones-Drew. Also last weekend:The rested Baltimore Ravens dominated the previously undefeated Denver Broncos 30-7.  The bye week sure was a good thing for Ravens head coach John Harbaugh’s team, as it was focused and energized by the home crowd.  The Ravens defense limited the Broncos to a season-low 200 total yards, forced one turnover, produced two sacks, and had a kickoff return for a touchdown.The Carolina Panthers pulled a total reversal from their 2008 playoff loss to the Arizona Cardinals.  Quarterback Kurt Warner (see Lloyd’s Lackey) looked like Panthers QB Jake Delhomme in an embarrassing 34-21 home loss.The Philadelphia Eagles tore apart the NY Giants on “Sports Sunday” in South Philly.The Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans jumped back in the playoff hunt.The Cleveland Browns continued to look like the NFL’s most pathetic team in a loss to the Chicago Bears. Game Ball Miami Dolphins WR/KR Ted Ginn —Who needs to play offense anyway?  After being demoted from his starting job (too many drops), Ginn made the most of his opportunities on special teams in the Dolphins’ 30-25 win over the J-E-T-S.  A special returner coming out of Ohio State, the former track star looked like the real deal again. Ginn helped pick up the Dolphins’ flagging offense by producing two touchdowns on lengthy thirdquarter kickoff returns of 101 and 100 yards. Ginn became the first player in NFL history with two touchdowns of 100 yards in the same game, and is the eighth player in NFL history with two kick-return touchdowns in a game.  Ginn also became the first player to record two KR-TDs in the same quarter since Green Bay’s Travis Williams in 1967. Honorable MentionTennessee Titans RB Chris Johnson —“Every Coach’s Dream” was in full effect as the mercurial running back sprinted the Titans to a much-needed 30-13 win over the Jaguars, for Tennessee’s first win of the season. Johnson ran for a franchise-record 228 rushing yards on 24 carries and scored on two long touchdown runs (52 and 89 yards) that displayed his game-breaking speedGreen Bay Packers QB Brett Favre —In the ultimate “in your face” moment of this week, Favre returned to Lambeau with both guns blazing.  The former Packers legend and current Vikings quarterback threw a season-high four touchdown passes and was never even touched in the pocket (zero sacks) as he piled up superb passing numbers: 17-for-28, 244 yards, 4 TDs, and 0 INTs. Favre also got his 90thwin at Lambeau (secondonly to John Elway’s 95 wins at Mile High), and tied Dan Marino’s NFL record of 21 career games with at least four TD passes.  Favre’s record since the second half of the 2006 season is 33-10 (.767 winning percentage), which is amazing considering the guy is 40 years old.Carolina Panthers DE Julius Peppers —And you thought his salary of $1M per week was too high (total 2009 salary of $16M).   In leading the Panthers to a revenge road win over the Arizona Cardinals, Peppers had two tackles, one sack, one force fumble, and returned an interception for a touchdownHouston Texans RB Ryan Moats —This former Eagles running back, who many in Philly thought didn’t have the football smarts to play the game, busted out in a big way this week Jazz EnergySolutions Arena . With starting RB Steve Slaton fumbling his way out of the lineup, it was Moats’ turn to carry the rock in the Texans’ 31-10 win over the Buffalo Bills Jazz EnergySolutions Arena – nba .  The small, speedy back ran for 126 yards and three TDs, plus he was able to block when needed and catch the ball, which are two things Moats had trouble with in Philly. The Texans are now two games over .500 for the first time in franchise historyBuffalo Bills S Jairus Byrd —If you don’t know this rookie’s name, you better learn it quick.  Byrd, a second-round pick from Oregon, had two more interceptions in the Bills’ loss to the Texans.  Byrd also tied an NFL record with three straight games of at least two interceptions.
