.....or how about we give the game ball to Brandon Jacobs for dropping everything? ......But he might drop the game ball also.

I give it to Portis. Man he looked good last night. I didn't think there was anyway we were going to push around the Giants d-line like we did. That was a great effort.

Re: Skins vs. Giants game balls

I voted for the offensive line, but I just as easily could have given it to Portis. Betts had 8 carries for 29 yards, which comes to 3.6 per carry. So aside from the 15 yard TD on the draw, he didn't do too much. Portis on the other hand really created some runs, the spin move to get away from Strahan, etc.

But the offensive line sold that draw play all game long, and came up big by only allowing 2 sacks to that vaunted Giants pass rush. Heyer on Strahan was especially good, which was my biggest worry going into the game. Portis had a hand in pass protection too - he was diving all over the place and laying dudes out.

Can I give out two game balls?

I give it to Moss. His catch started the entire offense moving. It helped Collins relax and just play.

Re: Skins vs. Giants game balls

Whole team deserves it in my opinion. And I especially love how my main man Andre Carter has been playing for the past season and a quarter.

However, I'm going to go against the grain a bit and give a game ball to Anthony Montgomery. Recovered a fumble, constantly shed blockers to make tackles, and anchored that interior (half the game without Cornelius by his side) to allow guys like Carter and Khary Campbell to make the highlight plays.

We're going to need one helluva game by him next week v. the Vikings.

Re: Skins vs. Giants game balls

Without question the O-Line gets my game ball. These guys handled their front 4 and then some. I also want to give a shout-out to Lorenzo Alexander...he was making plays all over the place, defense, offense, and special teams...dude is a beast!

Re: Skins vs. Giants game balls

How about one for Amani "Rod" Toomer. Wow, that might have been one of the worst drops ever.

The Giants knew the run was coming because of the wind, Clinton still took the day.

A game ball for Snyder as well for stepping up (as he always does) to take care of a player in need, giving Collins use of his private plane and having a car waiting for him so that he could fly to Boston for the birth of his child on Saturday and be back by game time.

Re: Skins vs. Giants game balls

This was a complete team victory. An honorable mention goes out to the defense. The offense made enough plays to win but it was the defense that sealed the victory. My game ball goes to the entire offensive line. The big boys open the way for Portis and Betts and did an outstanding job keeping the G-Women off Collins back. The G-Women were running all kind of stunts and blitzes to get to Collins and for the most part were ineffective against the offensive line.
