Favre = FedEx Air Player of the Week (3rd time); Kampman = Defensive Player of the Month; James Jones = Diet Pepsi Rookie of the Week.
(The Halloween posts are still up - 2 posts down. Not ready to take'm down .)
They always say bad things come in threes. Not this week.
#1. Once again, our Brett Favre was named FedEx Air Player of the Week for Week 8 of the NFL. This is his 4th nomination and 3rd win thus far. Favre went 21 of 27 for 331 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers' 19 - 13 win over the Denver Broncos on Monday night. Brett threw a 79-yard touchdown pass in the first-quarter to rookie James Jones to put the Packers on the board and won the game in the first 15 seconds of overtime with an 82-yard touchdown pass to Greg Jennings.
#2. Defensive end, Aaron Kampman was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Month. Kampman's a workhorse - ranked #2 in the NFL for sacks. He had 3 on Monday night and is on pace to beat the 15 1/2 he had last season.
#3. Now the James Jones Diet Pepsi Rookie of the Week thing - that hasn't been announced yet. But he's got 65% of the vote at 8:51 pm PST and it's announced Friday. What's the term in golf - 'take it'? Jones had three receptions for 107 yards and a first-quarter touchdown that covered 79 yards in the Packers' 19-13 overtime win at Denver on Monday night.
