QUARTERBACK

BEN ROETHLISBERGER
Steelers VS. Bills Big Ben showed that he's back in pre-2006 form, throwing TDs to four receivers against the Browns . Now Roethlisberger returns home to face Buffalo , which lost three defensive starters on Sunday: FS Ko Simpson , CB Jason Webster and LB Coy Wire .

Brett Favre
Packers AT Giants In his last four games against the G-Men, Favre has seven TDs and only one interception. And New York , which gave up 45 points to the Cowboys in Week 1, will be without DE Osi Umenyiora because of a knee injury.

RUNNING BACK

Adrian Peterson
Vikings at Lions In his debut he gained 163 yards from scrimmage, with a TD. Chester Taylor 's hip injury clears the way for another big day in Detroit .

Warrick Dunn
Falcons at Jaguars The unlikely duo of Chris Brown and LenDale White ran up 241 yards on the Jags . Dunn and Jerious Norwood will similarly excel.

Marshawn Lynch
Bills at Steelers The rookie didn't just look like an every-down back against Denver ; he looked like an every-week starter.

TIGHT END

Kellen Winslow
Browns vs. Bengals K2 answered questions about his right knee, surgically repaired during the off-season, by catching four passes for a team-high 83 yards in Week�1. Offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski will now look to Winslow more often and hope to end his 10-game TD drought.

WIDE RECEIVER

Andre Johnson
Texans AT Panthers Johnson is set to thrive now that he has a QB, Matt Schaub , who's able to stay on his feet. In Week 1 Johnson had 142 yards, including a career-best 77-yard TD.
