Week Six Best and Worst Performances

We've now arrived at the bulky part of the season where a number of teams are getting their Bye weeks, meaning that there are slimmer chances for best and worst performances.  Here are Week 6's.

Best:


Ahmad Bradshaw: He only has five TDs on the season, but three of those came against the Buffalo Bills this past Sunday, while helping the New York Giants improve to 4-2 on the season and have a nice lead in the NFC East.  Bradshaw also rushed for 104 yards, so who really needs Brandon Jacobs?


Aaron Rodgers: At this point, I'm just assuming that Rodgers is some sort of robot.  It's hard for anyone to have phenomenal games week in and week out.  But, Rodgers is proving that he belongs in the top-flight of elite QBs in the NFL.  Sunday's three TD performance and 310 yard passing game is just another day at the park for Rodgers.


Eagles Defense: Well, it's been a long time coming for this "incredible" defense to finally perform to their abilities, but they finally came through against the Redskins.  They forced four interceptions and held the Redskins to only 13 points.  Maybe this is the turnaround Philly faithfuls have been waiting for.


Worst:


Rex Grossman: If four interceptions isn't bad enough for you, try adding some salt to that wound by being benched for their next game.  Well, as of about two hours ago, Grossman is no longer the starter of the Washington Redskins, giving way to John Beck.


Donovan McNabb: Has anyone been featured in the "worst" section more than McNabb this season?  His numbers weren't atrocious this past weekend, but his inability to get the Vikings into the end-zone led to him getting benched for No. 12 overall pick Christian Ponder.  It may be time to say adios to McNabb.


Drew Brees: Despite throwing three INTs, the Saints still had a chance to win this game.  Unfortunately, pick number three came in the end-zone with less than three minutes left in the game.  Don't expect this type of performance much more this season from Brees.


Stay alert for Week 7's "Best and Worst" performances next weekend.
