As we enter the month of December, it is time to take a look back at Week 13. Here are the top five players on winning teams.
5) Matt Stafford

He completed 22 of 37 passes for 279 passing yards and three touchdowns as the Rams beat the Cleveland Browns 36-19. This was a battle of Super Bowl winning quarterbacks, as Joe Flacco made his Browns debut. Stafford’s most notable touchdown during the game was a 70-yard bomb to rookie Puka Nacua of Las Vegas, Nevada.
