What about Bob?

Giants offensive player of the week: Amani Toomer, WR. His two touchdown catches, including a 52-yarder in the first quarter where he broke several tackles, were massive.

Giants defensive player of the week: R.W. McQuarters, CB. He put the game away with his fourth quarter interception, and filled in capably in the regular package when Aaron Ross went down with a shoulder injury.

Game of the week: Giants 21, Cowboys 17. Lead changes. Big plays. Defensive stands by the Giants late. Not decided until the final seconds. I’d say that’s drama.

Upset of the week: Chargers 28, Colts 24. Colts looked rusty from layoff, just as they did two years ago when they lost their playoff opener at home to eventual Super Bowl champion Steelers. That Billy Volek guided the eventual winning score and LaDainian Tomlinson spent the entire second half on the bench with a knee problem was indicative of the unlikely outcome.

Offensive player of the week, Part I: Tom Brady, QB, Patriots. He completed 26-of-28 passes, and one of the incompletions was a drop by receiver Wes Welker. This guy just keeps on getting better.

Offensive player of the week, Part II: Ryan Grant, RB, Packers. He recovered from two early fumbles to rush for 201 yards and three touchdowns in the Packers' romp over the Seahawks.

Defensive player of the week: Stephen Cooper, LB, Chargers. This unsung inside linebacker had a whopping 16 tackles against the Colts. That is an eye-popping total.

Key turnover: Peyton Manning interception midway through third quarter. The Colts were driving deep into Chargers’ territory, but Manning’s pass intended for Kenyon Keith was picked off at the Chargers’ 2 to end the drive. Indy was down 14-10 at the time, and a touchdown there changes the momentum.

Most pathetic display of emotion: Cowboys WR Terrell Owens crying when defending quarterback Tony Romo against criticism. At one point, a tearful Owens said, “Leave Tony alone … It’s not fair … It’s not fair … He’s my teammate. He’s my quarterback.” Oh, the humanity.

Team on a roll: Giants. They’ve won nine straight on the road – the first team in NFL history to do so in a single season.

Key injuries: Chargers QB Philip Rivers and RB LaDainian Tomlinson both suffered knee injuries. If either or both is out on Sunday, the Chargers have even less of a chance on the road against the Pats.

Best coaching job: Norv Turner, Chargers. For a team that looked lost the first month of the season, their win over the Colts was nothing short of astounding. If they follow through on BbiB!’s prediction of an upset win in New England, then we’ll be left in awe of our football-loving blog aficianado.

Worst coaching job: Wade Phillips, Cowboys. This team just did not have it. They were pushing the Giants around in the first half, but could only manage 14 points, and then three points in the second half. There’s a reason Phillips is 0-4 in the playoffs.
