To nobody's surprise, Brett Favre was named the AFC Offensive Player of the Week after his career-high six-touchdown performance in the the Jets' 56-31 rout of the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

Favre completed 24 of 34 passes for 289 yards in his 257th consecutive start. He threw one interception and had a 123.7 passer rating.

Favre's six TDs tied Joe Namath for the club's single-game record.
