1. Giants (4-0) To Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo for foolishly challenging the Broncos' eight-time Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey on the final two plays of Sunday's 17-10 loss. On both of the plays, Romo tried to hit wide receiver Sam Hurd, who ran slant routes on Bailey. Bailey knocked away both passes to preserve the win. I could make a joke here about what sex with Jessica Simpson does to a man's brain. But Romo never was a Mensa candidate to begin with. To Vikings quarterback Brett Favre, whose Monday night performance against his old team, the Packers, more than lived up to the game's hype. Favre completed 24 of 31 passes for 271 yards and three touchdowns in his team's 30-23 win. Not bad for a guy who will turn 40 tomorrow. Through four games, Favre is third in the league in passing with a 104.7 passer rating and just one interception in 125 pass attempts. To Jets linebacker Bart Scott, who is, in my mind, one of the best interviews in sports. Intelligent, funny, honest, he's the whole package. Asked the other day about the confident attitude that he and head coach Rex Ryan have brought to the Jets, he said, "I think we're no more confident than any other team. I just think the only difference is we tell you [media] guys that and the rest of the people lie to you." -- Colts quarterback Peyton Manning needs just one more game with a 100-plus passer rating to become the third QB in league history to register a 100-plus rating in 70 regular-season games. Brett Favre has the most with 96 (88-8 record), Fran Tarkenton is second with 74. Manning's teams are 62-7. Donovan McNabb has 38 games with a 100-plus rating. The Eagles are 37-1 in those games. The loss was a 21-20 defeat to the Arizona Cardinals on Oct. 7, 2001. -- "We're 0-0 as far as I'm concerned. We've got to understand that the second quarter of the season begins [this week]. It's all even, and that's the only way we can think." - Chiefs coach Todd Haley, whose team is 0-4 as far its fans are concerned
