As we've said, Week One was amazing. On bye, we have the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Miami Dolphins, who had a late postpone to their game due to the Hurricane issues they've had. Every NFL week, we're also going to give our top Week One player and why. The award is going to . . .

Matthew Stafford, QB, Detroit Lions.

Now, many fans may criticize this opinion, but AnythingNFL's top experts have researched why Stafford was crucial for a victory against a complete Arizona Cardinal team. Stafford, who had 293 passing yards and four touchdowns, put on a stellar game. Using wide receiver Golden Tate (who had 107 yards), Stafford completed almost ALL of his passes. Also, though the run game wasn't sweet as top rusher Ameer Abdullah ran for only thirty yards, Stafford's mobility and awareness kept all plays going, which led to his many touchdowns.
