QB Studs

Cam Newton-Carolina Panthers: Cam again lead Carolina to a big win with some great numbers throwing five touchdown passes against the Saints in a back-and-forth shootout the Superdome. Newton finished with 331 yards passing and 49 yards rushing to go with his handful of TDs and also threw an interception.

Ben Roethlisberger-Pittsburgh Steelers: Ben came up big against the Colts throwing for 364 yards and four touchdowns.  He didn’t turn the ball over and added 13 yards rushing and a successful two-point conversion on his way to a huge fantasy football week 13.

Russell Wilson-Seattle Seahawks: Wilson had his second great week in a row after throwing for five TD’s against the Steelers last week.  This week, he threw for 274 yards and three touchdowns while adding 51 yards rushing and another touchdown on the ground.  While the Seahawks still have work to do to get to the playoffs, they’re surging at the right time behind great play from their QB.

Tom Brady-New England Patriots: Even without his options and with things breaking against him all day, Brady finished with solid numbers throwing for three scores and 312 yards while also adding a rushing touchdown on a one-yard sneak.  Brady threw a pair of brutal interceptions including one that went back 100 yards for a touchdown, but his owners still have to be happy with another big day for Brady who was still without Gronk and Julian Edelman.

Aaron Rodgers-Green Bay Packers: Rodgers last-second heave to the end zone helped the Packers beat the Lions, and also helped his fantasy owners.  Rodgers ended up with two passing touchdown and a rushing score while throwing for 273 yards and adding 27 yards on the ground.
