Thursday's game brought us a decent performance from Chad Henne, and even Jake Delhomme dropped in some sold yardage and a score. With one game out of the way, here's a look at where the other 30 quarterbacks rank heading into Sunday's action .

Monitor Kyle Orton's status leading up to game time, and against our better judgment, play Matthew Stafford, David Garrard, and Matt Cassel ahead of him (or Chris Simms):

1. Drew Brees @ T.B.
2. Peyton Manning @ BAL
3. Tom Brady vs. NYJ
4. Kurt Warner @ STL
5. Ben Roethlisberger @ K.C.
6. Matt Schaub vs. TEN
7. Aaron Rodgers vs. S.F.   
8. Philip Rivers @ DEN
9. Donovan McNabb @ CHI
10. Brett Favre vs. SEA
11. Tony Romo vs. WAS
12. Eli Manning vs. ATL
13. Matt Ryan @ NYG
14. Carson Palmer @ OAK
15. Jay Cutler vs. PHI
16. Matt Hasselbeck @ MN
17. Joe Flacco vs. IND
18. Vince Young @ HOU
19. David Garrard vs. BUF
20. Brady Quinn @ DET
21. Matt Cassel vs. PIT
22. Matthew Stafford vs. CLE
23. Kyle Orton vs. S.D.
24. Josh Freeman vs. N.O.
25. Alex Smith @ G.B.
26. Marc Bulger vs. AZ
27. Jason Campbell @ DAL
28. Mark Sanchez @ N.E.
29. Ryan Fitzpatrick @ JAC
30. Bruce Gradkowski vs. CIN

Notes: The top 10 are fairly self-explanatory and all are quality starts, regardless if they have questionable matchups.

Tony Romo struggled last week and Washington's pass defense is normally solid, but they were exposed last week, so look for the Cowboys to strike early with the deep ball.

Matt Cassel and the Chiefs will undoubtedly get beat up by the Steelers early, but if you follow trends, you'll know that Cassel doesn't catch fire until after halftime. Bank on some nice yardage as the Chiefs work their way back from a hefty deficit.

Brady Quinn makes the top 20 based solely on his fantastic matchup, although we haven't seen enough to truly expect him to do anything that should make him worth owning. Still, it's the Lions, so he's worth a shot if you're desperate.
