NFL: This Week's Terrific Twelve
This weekend's gridiron action spurred fans to search. Here are the top 12 players surging in Buzz from week 7 of the NFL...
—Ronnie Brown (+360%): Dolphins star RB out for the season with a torn ACL. Will Fins finish 0-16?
—Wes Welker (+249%): Thanks to Randy Moss drawing double teams, this Patriots WR is going off. He snagged two more touchdowns this weekend to torment his former team. Sorry, Miami.
—Vinny Testaverde (+244%): Ageless QB had the week off thanks to Panthers bye. Will the 43-year-old be under center against the Colts in Week 8?
—Marion Barber (+241%): Cowboys RB scored his fifth TD of the season against the Vikes. He's averaging an astonishing 5.7 yards per carry.
—Rudi Johnson (+237%): Bengals RB sat out game with Jets due to a groin strain. Backup Kenny Watson ran for three scores. A message to you, Rudi?
—Ben Roethlisberger (+223%): Steelers QB committed three turnovers in the mile high air of Denver. Steelers couldn't overcome the mistakes and missed a chance to go 5-1.
—Tony Romo (+205%): The darling of Dallas hurt his hamstring against the Vikings, but still managed to complete 80% of his throws. He'll have a week off to recuperate.
—Jeff Garcia (+204%): Feisty Tampa Bay QB passed for over 300 yards, but his two costly fumbles doomed the Bucs.
—Tom Brady (+191%): What else can you say? Six touchdown passes with a 84% completion rate. Plus Gisele. Will terrific Tom be stopped this season?
—Troy Polamalu (+166%): The only player on defense to make our list, the Steelers safety with the Samson-like locks wasn't able to help stop the Denver offense.
—Kurt Warner (+148%): Cardinals QB started despite torn elbow ligament in his non-throwing arm. But still! He almost led the Cardinals to an upset of the Redskins.
—Vince Young (+130%): The Madden cover boy missed his vengeance game against the Texans with a bum quadricep. Well-traveled backup Kerry Collins led the Titans to victory in Vince's stead.

Are you kidding me??? Titans' kicker Rob Bironas kicks an NFL record 8 for 8 field goals (the last one with 2 seconds on the clock) to beat the Texans and doesn't even get a mention??? Come on, guys!

The Vikings have a running back who leads the league inrushing and you don't even know his name. What league have you been watching?????
I live in Albuquerque and we don't even have a team, but this running back is the talk here, and that includes those who talk about about the Cowgirls, eh, cowboys??
