Stafford, Detroit  329  LOSS
Brees, New Orleans  322  WIN
Skelton, Arizona  315  WIN
Manning, NYGiants  311 LOSS

That works out to a WON/LOSS record of 3 WINS/4 LOSS, or a 43% winning percentage.

The seven running backs who rushed for 100 yards or more and the WON/LOSS result of their teams in Week Ten is as follows:

Bush, Oakland  157  WIN

200 YARD RUSHERS
2 WINS/0 LOSSES  100% winning percentage

100 YARD RUSHERS
59 WINS/16 LOSSES  79% Winning Percentage

TWO 100 YARD RUSHERS ON THE SAME TEAM
3 WIN/0 LOSSES  100% Winning Percentage

BOTH A 300 YARD PASSER AND 100 YARD RUSHERS
3 WIN/1 LOSS  75% Winning Percentage

Currently for the season, teams who have had quarterbacks pass for 300 yards or more would have a won/loss record total in a 16-game season of 8 WINS/8 LOSSES.

Currently for the season, teams who have had player rush for 100 yards or more would have a WON/LOSS record total in a 16-game season of 13 WINS/3 LOSSES.
