Ratings Up
HB Matt Forte Bears 80 to 82 Looked like the real deal week 1 vs. the Colts.
LG Josh Beekman Bears 74 to 76 Got the start and at LG and was able to pave the way for Forte on the ground.
HB Andre Hall Broncos 75 to 77 Looked very explosive against the hapless Raiders.
WR Eddie Royal Broncos 77 to 80 Made us remember why we call him DeAngelo Fall. Torched DeAngelo repeatedly and looked very good doing it.
LB Jamie Winborn Broncos 75 to 79 Started over the oft injured Boss Bailey and made plays vs. the Raiders.
LB Matt Roth Dolphins 76 to 80 Could have found his niche as a 3-4 OLB. Had 2 sacks in the opener.
WR DeSean Jackson Eagles 79 to 80 Has made the most of receivers going down with injuries in Philly. Tye Hill was benched after attempting to cover him.
LB Stewart Bradley Eagles 79 to 80 The new man in the middle for the Eagles, this one might stick.
HB Michael Turner Falcons 88 to 89 If I had a nickel for every time someone blew up on the Lions defense
A good start none the less for the Burner Turner.
LB Parys Haralson 49ers 74 to 76 Recorded 2.5 sacks getting the start for the Niners in Week 1.
HB Brandon Jacobs Giants 87 to 88 My mother could average 3 yards a carry behind the Giants O-Line. But he sure is powerful.
WR Matt Jones Jaguars 77 to 79 Maybe Garrards guy after a tough offseason. Injuries to the supposed starting WRs have helped also.
QB Aaron Rodgers Packers 84 to 85 Made it look simple vs. one of the top defenses in the NFL. Once the coach takes off the diapers watch out.
TE Dante Rosario Panthers 74 to 77 Blew up in a big way in Week 1 vs. the Chargers. Caught the game winner in the back of the end zone as time expired.
Ratings Down
DE Jarvis Moss Broncos 81 to 77 Inactive the 1st week in his second season for the Broncos.
LB Tully Banta-Cain 49ers 79 to 76 Came to the Niners with high hopes, now he has been replaced at OLB.
CB DeAngelo Hall Raiders 93 to 91 Yes after only one week. Reminded us why some people confuse speed with ability. He has speed, isnt much of a corner though.
