The Week That Was Week 4 in the NFL

Let the debate begin...again.

Brett Favre looked like the Brett Favre of old, throwing 6 (SIX!) touchdown passes.

Aaron Rodgers. Well, he's had better days.

Hopefully, by now, people know where I stand (and if you need a reminder, I'm standing behind the Packers and their decision to play Rodgers).

It's only one week and yes, if you look at the stats after four games, Favre numbers do look better. But I still think that Rodgers has played with more poise and has handled himself very well.

This debate will never end. Even if Rodgers takes Green Bay to a Super Bowl and even when Favre (finally) retires from the League. People will talk about this for ages (at least in Green Bay they will).

As of right now, Favre > Rodgers.

To the rest of the week:

• I was right about Denver, as the Broncos get pounded by Kansas City.
• Tennessee or Buffalo? Both are 4-0. What?!
• Goodbye Scott Linehan and (soon-to-be?) Lane Kiffin.
• Speaking of Favre's performance, don't forget about Kurt Warner's in the same game. It was like AARP Day at the Meadowlands.
• Too bad only three teams from the NFC East can make the playoffs.
• Sometimes, I still wish that Drew Brees was wearing lightning bolts.

Extra Point:

Back to Tennessee and Buffalo being undefeated. It's really hard to say which of these teams will continue their pace.

But, I'd argue that the Bills might have a better shot at winning the division and that taking the top spot in the AFC East is Buffalo's only way of getting into the playoffs.

The Titans are good and are probably better than the Bills, but the AFC South is still the best division in the AFC. If the Titans finished third in the South, they probably still make the playoffs.

Whereas, for the Bills, they have the Dolphins, the Jets and the Pats. Granted, the Bills are helped by the loss of Tom Brady. In any other year, I wouldn't expect the Bills to even contend. But no Brady gives Trent Edwards and Marshawn Lynch to taste the playoffs in their second year in the League.

Sure the Jets have Favre, but that team still makes me feel uneasy. And the Dolphins are light-years away from being a factor.

And remember, no one circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills.
