ATLANTA (CNN/SI) -- If not for two first-half fumbles, the Patriots' Terry Glenn would have turned in the kind of performance that turns a receiver into a legend. As it turns out, Glenn didn't fare too badly, catching 13 passes for 214 yards and a touchdown in New England's 19-7 victory over the Cleveland Browns.

The 13 catches were a franchise record.

The quarterback tossing the ball to Glenn, Drew Bledsoe, also turned in a stellar performance as the Patriots ran their record to 4-0. Bledsoe connected on 28 of 42 passing attempts for 389 yards and the touchdown to Glenn. He didn't throw any interceptions.

The Redskins' Brad Johnson managed another top-notch performance, throwing for 337 yards and four touchdowns and, more importantly, getting his team into position to beat the Carolina Panthers 38-36 in the final seconds.

On the ground in Week 4, the going again was tough. Only two backs -- Tim Biakabutuka of the Panthers and Errict Rhett of the Ravens -- passed the 100-yard mark.

Biakabutuka, whose performance was the best in a losing effort, rushed 12 times for 142 yards and three touchdowns. Rhett carried the ball 27 times for 136 yards in the Ravens overtime victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Here are the top performers:
