K. Collins - 16/31, 197 yds, 1 TD, 0 int rates 2.3, ranked 29th


Seriously, similar completion %s and a QB who throws for 39 yds with 1 TD ranks higher than a QB who throws for 335 and 2 TDs? This "stat" is a joke. It's just an attention ploy for ESPN. They want writers to draw attention to their network by referencing their proprietary, but made-up stat.
McNabb was hot for a very small streak in the first half and he did scramble for some positive plays.

For last 5 minutes or so of the fourth quarter, Sanchez was just really, really bad. Now, I haven't watched the whole Jets-Cowboys game, though.
