Top 10 Performers from Week 1 of the NFL 2018 Regular Season

The Top Ten
1 Ryan Fitzpatrick Ryan Joseph Fitzpatrick, is an American football quarterback for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League. He has played for 8 different teams throughout his career.

Without question the biggest stunner of the week came in the form of Harvard's greatest transitional player in Ryan Fitzpatrick laying the smackdown on the Saints's defense. Seriously how did he get 40+ point,s and to boot threw for 400 yards without getting sacked?

If Jameis Winston doesn't play well and Fitzpatrick continues to play well, it could lead to one the most unexpected QB controversies ever. Winston has looked like a real bust three years into his career.

Who saw this coming?

2 Von Miller Vonnie B'Vsean Miller Jr. is an American football outside linebacker for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League.

Miller is like every Quarterbacks nightmare he attacks you in different ways, and for Russell Wilson this is one guy he always double checks where 58 goes every time.

3 Tyreek Hill

You could argue for Mahomes who also pretty good himself, but to me Tyreek Hill was unstoppable on that field from both a special team, and offensive perspective he was almost unguardable that day this is looking to be a very promising duo right here.

4 Rob Gronkowski Robert Paxton Gronkowski, nicknamed "Gronk," is an American football tight end for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League. After retiring at the end of the 2018 NFL Season, Gronkowski came out of retirement to play with former Patriots teammate Tom Brady for the 2020 NFL season.

Yeah gronk did everything in his way to basically go full force all over that defense that's usually good at stopping the pass, but they were not ready for one man wrecking crew getting ready to bulldoze them all.

5 Khalil Mack Khalil Mack is an American football outside linebacker for the Los Angeles Chargers of the National Football League.

Despite the loss Khalil Mack made his presence known right away once Aaron Rodgers went down the first half.

6 Myles Jack

His interception for a touchdown was a key factor to a close hard fought battle over the G-man.

7 Jakeem Grant

Yeah go ahead say ''Who? '' Great question he got decent chuck of yards, and than got a punt return touchdown for the remaining fans who stayed for those long grueling hours.

8 Chris Thompson

The duo of Thompson, and Peterson really surprised a lot of people it certainly did fro Arizona. I'll chose Chris over AP just because at least he didn't fumble the football as a receiver.

9 Jay Ajayi Jay Ajayi is an American football running back for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League. He played college football at Boise State and was drafted by the Miami Dolphins in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft.

Philly struggling in the passing game for the most, but Jay managed to hall in 2 touchdowns which was big for the Eagles to get out with a win that there back in form last year as ''underdogs.''

10 Luke Kuechly Luke August Kuechly is a former American football middle linebacker. He played his entire career for the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League.

Still battle in pain, and all, but played hard football with the Cowboys, and luckily on that close battle despite losing a big player on the offense for the 2nd straight season it seems to be.

The Contenders
11 Joe Mixon

This is looking like what I expected to see great improvement from Joe Mixon in the running game.

12 Aaron Rodgers Aaron Charles Rodgers is an American football quarterback for the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League.

Came back from a knee injury that scared fans for a quarter or two, ended up evening out a 20-0 game and making the final score in the last minutes of the game. Magical performance, not to mention that it is tied for the largest deficiet he has came back from.

Amazing comeback scored no points early on, then pulls a Tom Brady and came back with under 2 minutes to spare in the 4th quarter.

13 Todd Gurley III Todd Gurley II is an American football running back for the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League. He played college football at Georgia where he earned All-SEC honors in 2012 and 2013. Gurley was drafted by the Rams with the tenth overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft.

The first overall pick in fantasy football turned it up towards the end to put the Raiders in limbo misery.

14 James Conner James Earl Conner is an American football running back for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League. He played college football at Pittsburgh, and was drafted by the Steelers in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft.
15 Darron Lee

Got two picks off of Stafford as they put a ton of pressure on that offense as things Jersey maybe interesting temporarily. The secondary played very solid that night give the defense its credit.

16 T.J. Watt

Despite the tie he was the best player on the Steelers even more than James Connor who didn't come in until late in the game bursting out. The big reason why they didn't lose is their big steal from the 2017 draft making big progress in year two with 4 sacks already.

Saved the steelers from losing to the browns, enough said.

17 Patrick Mahomes Patrick Lavon Mahomes II (born September 17, 1995) is an American football player who is currently a quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League.

He had a very solid start for the Chiefs with 4 TD passes 0 interceptions and 256 yards. Still a bit early to tell but he’s looking good so far

18 Sam Darnold Samuel Richard Darnold is an American football quarterback for the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League.
