The and will wrap up the NFL's Week 6 action on "," but we already have a lot to discu s from Thursday and Sunday's slate of games. A trio of second-year quarterbacks took control of their narratives in Week 6 with dominant performances John Taylor Jersey that played the key factor in each of their team's victories. Two of them were first-round picks in the 2018 NFL Draft while the other went undrafted -- a mistake that 31 other NFL general managers are kicking themselves for.There is a lot more to unpack from Week 6's action -- a lot of awesome surprise and a few not-so-awesome surprises, at least for fans of those teams.So let's break down the 10 most surprising performances from Week 6.1. reminds fans why they should be hopefulIt had been an ugly first five weeks for Jets fans (0-4) after being forced to turn to third-string quarterback . It was so ugly that most fans of the tortured franchise didn't want to believe there was anything to look forward to in a Week 6 home game against the even knowing it meant the return of their second-year franchise quarterback Sam Darnold. There's a reason why CBS Sports NFL analyst Tony Romo told me in August that Sam Darnold was , and his return alone should have Jets fans excited.During the New York Jets' 24-22 victor over the Cowboys, Darnold completed 23 of 32 pa ses for 338 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. It was his third career 300-plus-yard pa sing game. The numbers could have been even bigger if the Jets didn't change their offensive strategy in the second half to close out Dallas after jumping out to a big lead. Darnold had his way with the Cowboys' pa s defense in the first half throwing for 218 yards -- the fourth-most in the first half in Jets franchise history. Darnold also set a career-high with 10.6 yards per pa s. The Jets put up season highs in Kyle Juszczyk Jersey yards (382) and first downs (20). The previously stout Cowboys defense had no answer for Darnold despite limiting in the run game. 2. flashes prime Michael Vick statusIn his prime, Michael Vick looked more like a Madden cheat code than NFL player. A couple of decades later, prime Lamar Jackson is starting to have the same feel. During the ' 23-17 victory over the , there was no answer for Jackson when he decided to run the ball. The second-year quarterback ripped off 152 rushing yards and became just the third quarterback in the Super Bowl era to rush for 150-plus yards in a single game. Jackson came just 22 rushing yards shy of breaking Vick's all-time single-game rushing record. It was Jackson's second 100-plus rushing yards game of the season and the third in his career -- this ties Billy Kilmer for the most by a quarterback in his first two NFL seasons since 1950. Jackson still has 10 more games to break that record.What makes Jackson so special is that he's also able to get the job done with his arm. Jackson went 21 of 33 with 236 pa sing yards. In the proce s, Jackson became the only player in the Super Bowl era to eclipse 200 yards pa sing and 150 yards rushing in a single game. 3. remains undefeated, earns praise from BowlesThe Kyle Allen story gets better every week. During the ' 37-26 victory over the in Week 6, in a game that was not as close as the final score, Allen went 20 of 32 for 227 yards pa sing, two touchdowns, and no interceptions. The latter stat -- no interceptions -- has become the norm for the 2018 undrafted rookie free agent. In Week 6, Allen became the first quarterback in NFL history to win and throw zero interceptions during all of his first five starts. He also became the first undrafted rookie to win his first five starts since Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner did it in 1999. Allen is one of only two quarterbacks ( has 14:0 TD to INT ratio) to throw for multiple touchdown pa ses with no interceptions so far in 2019.After the game, Buccaneers defensive coordinator Todd Bowles said Allen presented their defense a bigger challenge George Kittle Jersey in preparation than he would have facing Cam Newton."Todd Bowles told us in our pre-broadcast meeting that the Allen-QBed team presented more of a challenge to defend than the Week 2 Cam QBed team," NFL Network's Rich Eisen said, . "Said, among other i sues, Allen finds his outlets better. Also said with the Cam QBed team, he could Ronnie Lott Jersey focus his defense on the mesh point between Cam and McCaffrey because "85 percent of the offense" was centered right there. Not the case with Allen." 4. makes a name for himselfAs Rich Hribar of Sharp Football Analysis Tweeted, in the sea of darkne s that was the Bengals in Week 6 (but really, that sea of darkne s spans the entire 2019 season and not just Week 6), Tate was a beacon of light. The Bengals used their seventh-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft -- No. 253 overall -- to grab the 6-foot-5 and 228-pound former Florida State star who turned 65 career collegiate receptions into 16 touchdowns. The Bengals overlooked a rough pre-draft proce s for Tate (several NFL teams ruled him out after his 4.68 40-yard dash and 31-inch vertical) and it appears they've found a legitimate wide receiver. Tate wasn't just a red zone threat in Week 6 -- he made plays all over the field. Tate finished with a career-high 91 receiving yards on five receptions. Auden Tate had a breakout game for the Bengals. He snagged 5 of 12 targets for 91 yards, but all five catches were eye-popping. JG (@JoeGoodberry) 5. nearly perfect in losing effortYou know things are bad in Atlanta when franchise quarterback Matt Ryan can turn in the following stat line and the still lose 34-33 to the : 30 of 36 for 356 pa sing yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions. The four touchdowns were tied for the second-most in Ryan's career. He has now thrown for at least 300 pa sing yards in every game this season and that makes him tied for the longest streak of 300-plus pa sing games to start a season in NFL history. Despite Ryan's pa sing succe s, the Falcons dropped to 1-5 and have the toughest remaining schedule by opponent winning percentage. Atlanta is a sneaky darkhorse candidate to own the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.6. wastes no Trey Lance Jersey time returning to formWhen Henry suffered a tibia fracture after catching four pa ses for 60 yards in Week 1, it paused a potential breakout season for the former first-round pick who has been snakebitten by injuries since entering the NFL. Henry beat his injury timetable and immediately returned to form in Week 6. Henry was unguardable by the safeties and linebackers -- a talented group -- the tried to throw at him. Henry set career highs with eight receptions, 100 yards receiving, and two touchdowns. He became the first tight end with 100-plus receiving yards and two touchdowns in a single game since did it in 2010. 7. goes backward in QB historyThe second-year quarterback continued to move backward in the turnover department during the Cleveland Browns' 32-28 lo s to the in Week 6. Mayfield threw for three interceptions in the game, and his inability to protect the fo
