Super Bowl 2012: Top 10 Players Who Helped The Giants Get There
by Ed Valentine on Jan 27, 2012 12:00 PM EST
in New York Giants News
Email
PrintThe 2012 Super Bowl between the New York Giants and New England Patriots creeps a little bit closer every day. I have been thinking a lot about how the Giants got to this point, and I thought I would put together a list of the 10 players who I thought had the most to do with getting the Giants to Indianapolis.
I also asked Mike and Sean for their lists, partially for reference as I put mine together and partially so you could also see their thoughts on the subject. Their lists will be underneath mine, which I will give you in reverse order starting with No. 10.
10. Kevin Boothe -- Did you snicker when general manager Jerry Reese talked about the importance of re-signing Boothe as a free agent? I did. I am not laughing now. I am also not making any more 'big-butt' jokes.
9. Jacquian Williams/Devin Thomas -- Without the special teams plays they made against the San Francisco 49ers last week the Giants are not still playing. So, they have be on the list.
8. Chase Blackburn -- No one, including the Giants, thought Blackburn could play as well as he has since the Giants brought him back when Mark Herzlich broke his ankle. Blackburn's experience, his leadership, and his ability to get downfield and into passing lanes in coverage, have made a huge difference in the play of the defense.
7. Osi Umenyiora/Justin Tuck -- I am cheating here, but I have to mention both veteran defensive ends. Umenyiora has been a difference-maker whenever he has played, with ine sacks and two forced fumbles in nine regular-season games, and 3.5 sacks and a forced fumble in the playoffs.
6. Michael Boley -- Assumed the role of defensive signal-caller this season and had his best year as a Giant.
5. Steve Weatherford -- Whatever the reason New York Jets special teams coach Mike Westhoff didn't think Weatherford was good enough to punt for his team that's his problem. Weatherford had the best season of his career and turned a devastating weakness into a Giants' strength.
4. Jason Pierre-Paul -- It takes a special player to relegate Osi Umenyiora to No. 3 on the depth chart. JPP is definitely that. At times this season it looked like he was playing defense all by himself out there.
3. Hakeem Nicks -- A very good season, and thus far a spectacular playoff performance. The 'Hail Mary' catch against Green Bay was the highlight, but while everyone has been talking about Victor Cruz it has been Nicks leading the Giants receivers in the postseason. He has 18 catches for 335 yards (18.6 yards per catch) and four touchdowns in three postseason games.
2. Victor Cruz -- Is there really much more than can be said about Cruz? The guy is probably the best story in the NFL this season. How many plays did he make this season that changed the outcome of games? A lot.
1. Eli Manning -- Classify Eli however you want. Fact is, he is one heckuva quarterback and it is entirely possible that without him this season the Giants are a lot closer to the 2-14 Indianapolis Colts than to the Super Bowl. Without Manning the Giants could easily have been a four- or five-win team.
Honorable Mentions: I left a couple of guys off my list that I need to give some props to. Ahmad Bradshaw's stats aren't great, but the Giants are clearly a different offensive football team with him than without him. Antrel Rolle did not have a great year, and he talks too much. Calling out some of his teammates prior to the Jets game for not practicing enough turned out to be a kick in the teeth that ended up being a defining moment for the Giants.
Mike's List ...
1. Eli Manning
2. Jason Pierre-Paul
3. Victor Cruz
4. Hakeem Nicks
5. Michael Boley
6. Justin Tuck
7. Ahmad Bradshaw
8. Jacquian Williams
9. Chase Blackburn
10. Steve Weatherford
It was hard to leave off Ballard, Mario and Corey Webster, heck, even Antrel.
Sean's List ...
1. Eli Manning
2. Victor Cruz
3. Hakeem Nicks
4. Jason Pierre-Paul
5. Corey Webster
6. Jake Ballard
7. Osi Umenyiora
8. Michael Boley
9. Kevin Boothe
10. Jacquain Williams/Devin Thomas/Chase Blackburn
I had to throw in those three guys in at #10.
Without them, especially Williams and Thomas, we don't advance to SB46.

Well this will probably not be popular...
But Tynnes needs to be added somehow
you can make a case for it
his kickoffs improved this season (benefited from the rule change as well) and of course, the winning kick in OT

Weatherford
I will go out on a limb- If Matt Dodge is punting the Giants are sitting home right now.
A limb?
You are on solid rock.
Dodge=no playoffs.
All the Giants should play like Mark Bavaro.
TQ, DD and KMac Must Go!
TC, PF, KG, will stay but should go for the long term good.

yeah no limb there
they won way too many close games this year, and its not any stretch at all to say that one shanked kick in any of them could have been the difference. Not to mention how well Weatherford pinned guys deep this year.

I agree more with Ed's list...but JPP needs to jump over Cruz and Nicks
that’s the only change
without JPP’s FG block, we prob don’t make it in the playoffs..

Jpp single handedly won the 1st Dallas game. And hes been a one man defense at times. Everyone knows how much love i have for VC but JPP is more important to this team.

I like Mike's list too
but I would flip flop Chase and J Will..
and then take JWill out and replace him with K Boothe
not saying JWill didn’t do anything, but I think KBoothe during the whole season was slightly better and more needed…b/c of Baas’ injury leaving him in/out of the lineup..
altogether all 3 lists are good…I just had less adjusting off of Ed’s list that fits more in tune with what I agree with…
to INDY!
Regardless of how you order it...
…these lists contain 10 guys in big blue who stepped up and made big plays.

My Wife is a Patriot's fan...
"Giants rely on fumbles and stripping the ball. If the pats secure the ball, then the pats win, but if they fumble or let the ball get striped than the giants win. every game the giants play they always benefit from the other teams bonehead mistakes (fumbled or striped) not from thier skills. The giants are a dirty team, I can’t think of any othe team as dirty as the giants. They try to strip the ball as hard as they can because they know they can’t win a fair game." by EaglesNeedD on Jan 23, 2012 2:01 AM EST

In mentioning JPP
his game against Dallas should be ranked alongside Wilfork vs. Baltimore as one of the best single game performances by a defensive player this season. If he doesn’t get the FG block at the end of the game, are we in the Super Bowl? Tough to say, but I don’t like our chances.
Numer one on the list of addition by subtraction
Have to give kudos to our former Steve Smith. If he had not bolted to our archnemesis, Cruz would never have elevated to the role of awesome go-to-guy.
Thank you Eagles and Smith, you're the best!

Nothing but love for him here
It has gone largely unnoticed but Canty has been the primary reason why our run defense and mid-rush packages have been so effective since the Jets game. He is surprisingly quick and incredibly difficult to block one-on-one due to his absolutely massive frame (6’7", 280 lbs) and power.
If the Patriots don’t double him he might have an explosion on par with Justin Tuck’s in XLII.
And if they do either Osi, Tuck, or The Krakken will be one-on-one and make the game a nightmare for the Patriots o-line, especially if and when Boley blitzes up the gut.

Agree with Sean on this one. Ballard’s emergence allowed us to run our offense without interruption from losing Boss. And that’s not counting all the clutch catches in key situations.
That really helped get running game going when it was needed

I personally would like to man up and apologize to Mr Manning
I remembered the first day of camp when Ed wrote that Eli threw an interception, I went nuts screaming that he is starting out where he left off last season with a those interceptions. I would like to apologize and offer to shut the f_ up when anything is said about king Eli
I went to one training camp
Eli was pretty bad in it.

I agree TAWD
to see 10-12 players highlighted and to think of the cases to be made for a slew of other players speaks to the balance that this team is enjoying these last month plus.

Keeping us stocked with depth, even though some of his decisions made us scratch our heads. IN JR WE TRUST!!!

Diehl
should get some credit as well, maybe in an “Honorable Mention” category. Losing a starting LT is a major disruption to an offense, Diehl moved right back over and has done a credible job overall, he’s got to be valued somewhat similarly to Boothe for versatility and stepping up to meet the challenge.

Ed, you need a course in logic
“without the special teams plays they made (Thomas and JWill), we are not playing in the SB.”
Huh?
Taking nothing away from JWill’s Superman play (love the pic of his strip), if there’s no funble there, the Giants could force the Niners to go three and out, Eli gets the ball back in good field position and hits two passes, and we are right back in it.
I say this only because….to have these guys on, and not CWeb, is ridiculous. That guy was a rock in a decimated secondary, and we REALLY are not in the SB without his play.
What a bum

Maybe honorable mention or something, but when Steve Smith and Kevin Boss left, he didn’t panic said this roster had enough talent to make it to the Super Bowl, while everyone laughed at him. After all the injuries we absorbed, we played one of the toughest schedules in the league, it’s obvious he put together a team with good depth and balance and now way are we here without his moves.
by Late for Dinner on Jan 27, 2012 12:34 PM EST reply actions
Totally agree...
After all that ‘dream team’ and poor FA pic memory started to fade quick, it was the depth of JR &co. draft pics who added the necessary depth for this team to continue. It’s why we jelled right at the end when it mattered, regardless of all the injuries initially. Bodes well for next year too.
Given health, D is going to be sick next year
I expect JPP and Linval to get even better, J-Will will become a very good linebacker, hopefully TT is back, and Amukamara contributing. If Goff gives us anything it will be gravy. The Osi situation makes me a little sad, but if we can get Goff back (maybe at Sam, with Boley at Mike?), Kiwi will step into his spot as the 3rd DE.

You win as a team, you lose as a team
The thought that some players helped the team more than others is understandable, but there could be players on the scout team that helped just as much if not more, getting the players ready for a game, helping them execute better, and being better prepared. That is why, if they win this game, they all get a ring. As it should be.
while it is a team game and all 53 contributed
Let’s be honest… some guys were liabilities and some almost single-handedly won games for us.
Individual games, for sure
But as Parcells used to say, I think, its a marathon and not a sprint. You have to look at the whole season’s work
What's truly amazing
is that we’ve gotten where we are with precious little help from our recent draft classes. If some of these guys can get healthy (such as Austin, Simtim and Jones), fulfill expectations (Prince), or develop as we hope (Brewer, for example), we’ll be in fine shape for the next few years.
Prince
on GRONKOWSKI (if he plays)….any thoughts
he's too big for any DB to cover one on one
now, Prince on Aaron Hernandez? That I could see, tho I think they’d go with Rolle or one of the other safeties first.
it's an interesting idea
I’m not saying i like the matchup but i feel there are more snaps out there for Prince, but his times this year has come and gone.
Fewell won’t risk over exposing him in the SB.

Yeah fresh start next year
I think he’s gonna beast off.

Prince is WAAAYYY too small
he must have a 28" belt size. Gronk would steam roll him
May Doug Marrone bless you and keep you.
Yes we dont want to lose our rookie to such a disaster.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
I think too small
JWill or Chase most likely
All the Giants should play like Mark Bavaro.
TQ, DD and KMac Must Go!
TC, PF, KG, will stay but should go for the long term good.
It is equally worthless when people are always optimistic or always pessimistic. Either way I take their opinion with a pound of salt because I know they only have one setting. I post my own thoughts, not what either side wants to read.

The think the D should concentrate on the middle of the field
and dare Brady to throw to his receivers on the outside. If we are bringing pressure, our DB’s should be able to handle Man coverage.

The key to this season has been John Mara and Steve Tisch
Here is why:
- Steve Tisch – Mara wanted to hire Chris Mara to be GM way back when. Not to put down Chris Mara, but owners as GMs have been a disaster in all sports. Steve Tisch said no, we can’t have a GM we can’t fire, that just won’t work. So KUDOS to Steve Tisch.
- John Mara – He gets it. He gets it better than any of us. Football GMs, coaches and players can’t do their jobs any better than anyone else if they are in constant fear of getting fired. As the owner mainly involved in the football end, his patience, support of, and belief in his staff has allowed them to make rational decisions while remaining calm. Without that support its doubtful JR and TC stick to the plan.
So we can talk about all of the on field heroics, but given the turmoil of this season and the last 2, it seems clear to me that it was the calm rational decision making at the top that this season’s success was built on.
Eli is our King!
Good point...Plus the whole team got reamed out by Mara at the end of last season...
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
Wait they were going to hire someone in family to be the GM?
They didn’t learn from their father in the 60s and 70s?
Link possibly?

yeah but I noticed something watching sights and sounds of the game on Giants.com
after he forced the fumble, he went right back to the bench and sat with his head down. Then right before the kick, they showed he was in the same spot, head down.
Now this may be nothing at all but, was he in pain that whole time and just wanted to sit and rest his foot? Or was he just nervous and couldn’t watch the kick? I guess we will know in the next few days.

you're right in a sense
that Dodge didn’t lose the game, but he could have prevented what will now be stuck in our memories for a long time by not punting it out of bounds. The D shouldn’t have let it come to that point, but Dodge did nothing to help the situation. A good punter, like Weatherford, would have helped.

Corey Webster
has to be on this list. Maybe he didn’t make any particular season-saving type plays this year, but he’s been far and away the best player in that secondary and has gone head-to-head with the league’s best receivers every single week. Factor in TT’s injury, and Webster’s performance has been that much greater.
P.S. I will never stop making big-butt jokes about Kevin Boothe. NEVER.

I should also point out that I absolutely killed Webster
earlier in his career. I swore the Giants would lose a game in the ‘07 postseason because Sam Madison got hurt and Webster had to step in. "This dude’s a bum", or something like that. One of my many good calls.

Dude played an entire half with a broken arm, and then made the game saving tackle in the Dolphins game. He absolutely deserves to be on that list.
Dude sacrificed his body and his year for us, after only being on the team for about 5 minutes. (and he Damn well better be in a Giants uniform next season).

This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
When a team starts winning fans and scouts and writers start seeing the talent and skill
on the team. Coming off the 2008-09 playoffs, losing in the first round at home, we all knew that Giant team was over. It was a squad that should’ve competed in a SuperBowl that year but was undone by a gunshot wound. People have forgetten how dominant and talented that team was. What Jerry Reese and TC and the scouts did was retool this team on the fly. Overhauling the defensive line, adding young athletic linebackers to play special teams and defend speedy tight ends, adding depth to the offensive line. Targeting specific free agents that fit the Giant philosophy. Rocky Bernard aside, the additions of Rolle, Canty, Baas and Weatherford, were great free agent signings.
This team is talented and young and after the many injuries and players getting healthy, when you watch this squad play they way TC and Reese set them up to play, you get a feel that they are just realizing their potential.
Having said all that, the only player that needs to be on this list is Eli Manning. He is the MVP of the league in IMO. Without Eli elevating his game and realizing his potential there is no Victor Cruz. No Jake Ballard. No Hakeem Nicks. Eli cultivated these receivers, he won games despite the defense giving them time to get healthy and get the scheme right.
So my list is;
1. Eli
2. Eli
3. Eli
4. JPP
5. Weatherford
6. Michael Boley
7. Victor Cruz
8. Hakeem Nicks
9. Chris Canty
10. Osi/Tuck

JPP – His dominance on the defensive side of the ball help put the ball back in Eli’s hand
Weatherford- Great field position all year, especially in the games when the O sputtered
Boothe- For his versatility with multiple positions and not making huge mistakes while doing it!
Blackburn- For coming in off of the streets to have true production on Defense
Boley- Keeping the entire Defense together and flying around the field all year!
Rolle- For having the guts to speak up, even when it seemed like a bad thing to do!
Ballard- For making contributions and his production and making us forget about Boss.
