QB Studs

Matthew Stafford-Detroit Lions: Stafford had a feast on Thanksgiving throwing for five touchdowns against the Eagles defense which looked totally overmatched. Stafford had 337 yards passing on 27/38 while adding 13 yards rushing.

Russell Wilson-Seattle Seahawks: Wilson threw for a career-high five touchdowns in the Seahawks crazy win over Pittsburgh. He finished with 345 yards passing and added 15 yards on three rushes.

Philip Rivers-San Diego Chargers: After a nightmarish performance last week, Rivers bounced back with 300 yards in San Diego’s road win in Jacksonville. Rivers threw for four touchdowns and added nine yards rushing on his five carries.

Tom Brady-New England Patriots: With no-name wide receivers and in back conditions, Brady still managed to throw for 280 yards and three touchdowns. He led the Patriots on a game-tying drive without Gronk, but he couldn’t get a score on his one possession in overtime.

Ben Roethlisberger-Pittsburgh Steelers: Big Ben threw just one touchdown and two interceptions before leaving early with a concussion. He amassed an impressive 456 yards passing, though, which should have been enough to get his fantasy owners a win.

Andy Dalton-Cincinnati Bengals: Dalton completed 20 of his 27 passes for 233 yards and three touchdowns. He threw one interception, but he still had a good solid stat line.
