Every team in the NFL has played at least 4 games, which makes this the unofficial end to the first quarter of the football season. Now's the best time to get your hands on a new jersey to support your favorite team or player. Sure, it's cool to be the first one on your block with a jersey from a rookie drafted in April, but what do you think all those Chargers fans are doing with old Ryan Leaf jerseys? Instead of taking a chance on a rookie, use the facts from the first quarter of the season to help sway your decision. Here's the hottest jerseys so far:
-Brett Favre, New York Jets
-Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons
-Matt Forte, Chicago Bears
-Michael Turner, Atlanta Falcons,
-LaMarr Woodley, Pittsburgh Steelers
A lot of people jumped the gun on the Brett Favre bandwagon and bought his New York Jets jersey the day it was available. So far it seems like a good investment. Favre threw six touchdown passes in week 4, and has the New York faithful excited about the possibility of another playoff appearance. Next up are two rookies who have seen a great deal of playing time. Matt Ryan has hooked up with Roddy White to become one of the league's most potent pass-catch combinations. Meanwhile, Matt Forte is doing everything the Bears have asked of him. He's running, blocking and catching the ball out of the backfield, and he has the Bears in first place. Matt Ryan's teammate, Michael Turner, the pride of Northern Illinois University, has caught fire thus far, rushing for more than 540 yards through his first five games, and has become the best friend of many fantasy football owners. Finally, on the defensive side of the ball, LaMarr Woodley is tied for third in the league with 5.5 sacks, and already has a forced fumble and an interception. Steelers fans love a smash-mouth defense, and Woodley is definitely leading the way to this point.
