Top 10 Performers from Week 9 of the NFL 2018 Regular Season

The Top Ten

  1. Roquan Smith

    Sure, it's the Bills, but the way the Bears mauled them so easily without Khalil Mack is deviously hilarious to see, and more comedy relief will be how easy it's gonna be to see a Lions team that looks ready to give up on the season be the same exact story.

  2. Drew Brees

    And just like that, Brees was able to defeat the Rams. He's having a career year. If it continues, can anyone beat the Saints now? Anyone remember when they lost to Tampa in week 1?

    Kamara had a big game, and Michael Thomas had a career day, but Drew Brees orchestrated the whole thing very well, and he is having an MVP season like no other right now (aside from maybe young Patrick Mahomes).

  3. Christian McCaffrey

    Carolina is scoring in more unique ways than one, and McCaffrey had himself a ball game all over this pitiful Bucs defense that could do nothing no matter where he was spread out.

  4. Danielle Hunter

    Minnesota struggled in the first half getting to any quarterback, and right from the get-go Hunter capitalized on the weaknesses of the worst performance from a Detroit line I can ever remember. They gave up 10 sacks, while Hunter scooped up the most with 3.5 and a touchdown as a souvenir for the Lions' suffering.

  5. T.J. McDonald

    One thing I did underestimate from this Dolphins squad is that their defensive secondary is actually good, I must say. T.J. in this case took full advantage of a much more hurt Jets team as Darnold went on to have a miserable day, while McDonald easily had a great time.

  6. Josh Gordon

    Brady didn't have the greatest game, but hey, he beat Rodgers thanks to Josh Gordon getting open over a pair of corners eventually to seal the deal.

  7. Melvin Gordon

    Last week Seattle stopped Kerryon Johnson. This week they could not stop the second-best running back statistically, as it led to a tough loss at home where Melvin was the big benefactor to this quietly good Chargers team.

  8. Julio Jones

    The first touchdown of the season for Julio, and to boot, Washington could not answer the challenge at all that game.

  9. Travis Kelce

    Kareem Hunt also had a monster game, but it was Travis Kelce that put out the Browns for good in the second half as they move on to perhaps conquering the postseason at this rate if they win out the rest of the way.

  10. George Kittle

    Probably the best thing that has happened to the Niners in a positive way this season, and while Mullens had a good debut, Kittle had a good-looking catch to the middle that ended up putting away the Raiders in a pointless win. Otherwise, this is how you build for the future this late in the season.

    With the lack of explosive tight ends this season, Kittle may find himself in the Pro Bowl with All-Pro honors.
