With Jeremy Shockey sitting on the bench, New York needed an emotional lift in the worst way. And after falling behind 14-0, veteran wide receiver Amani Toomer decided to step up and give them exactly that. In what was probably the most clutch performance of his career (that's saying a lot), Toomer hauled in five of Eli Manning's seven completions for 99 yards. And of the five receptions, three of them kept extremely important drives going.
In addition to Toomer's monster game, running backs Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw each set personal milestones. Jacobs had a career best day with 145 yards and two touchdowns on the ground, while Bradshaw racked up 151 yards and a touchdown. And for Bradshaw, he may have secured himself a significant position on this team heading into the playoffs -- not to mention, a long-term deal.
For Buffalo, they went out the window with the wind. As expected, the team came out on fire after an emotional chat with Kevin Everett prior to kickoff, but were unable to maintain that intensity for four quarters. And Trent Edwards three fourth quarter interceptions certainly didn't help.
The Giants now move to 10-5 and can afford to rest everyone on Saturday night against the New England Patriots. Meanwhile, the Bills fall to 7-8 and aim to end the season on a high note against the Philadelphia Eagles.
