Each week in the NFL, there are players that impress and players that distress. One week a certain quarterback might toss four touchdowns and run around pointing skyward, while the next he's laying on his back, holding his facemask as the other team returns one of his three interceptions for the game-winning score. With that in mind, here's Studs and Duds.
Studs
Ted Ginn Jr., WR Miami (6 KRs, 299 yards, 2 TDs) -- Miami fans didn't want him, and how could you blame them for what Ginn Jr. had done so far this season? One touchdown and just 30 yards receiving per game for the former Ohio State star forced a benching by head coach Tony Sparano, only to have Ginn do something on Sunday that had never been done before.

Carson Palmer, QB Cincinnati (20-24, 233 yards, 5 TDs) -- There was an interesting moment during "Hard Knocks" on HBO this year when Palmer was giving his center, Kyle Cook, a little bit of grief about the smell that Carson had on his hand after taking snaps. It was essentially boys being boys, but Palmer played it well and had some fun at the expense of Cook.

Tom Brady, QB New England (29 of 34, 380 yards, 6 TDs) -- People were questioning his knee this season. He seemed jittery in the pocket, made throws he didn't used to make, and wasn't leading the Patriots like he had during those three Super Bowl years and undefeated regular season in 2008.

Miles Austin, WR Dallas (10 catches, 250 yards, 2 TDs) -- My mom, for arguments sake, is probably the nicest person you'll ever meet in your entire life, and I'm not saying that in a "she's my mother so of course I think so" sort of way. It's true. Very, very true.

Brett Favre, QB Minnesota (24-31, 271 yards, 3 TDs) -- I hated to do it, but it had to be done. Favre, no matter his age or hair color or unique ability to make 49 out of 50 states hate him profusely, went out against his old team and basically, and excuse my language, whooped their a***s like a Wrangler commercial gone bad. Make no bones about it -- Green Bay isn't a bad team, and Favre picked apart its secondary like it was a Division-II squad.
