Defense and dirty work are in the spotlight...
Heisman Worthy
Stanley Havili, FB, Eagles - 2 rushes for 15 yards and a catch for 7 yards
Obviously, the numbers are not dynamic, but if you watched Sunday Night Football, Havili was a major factor in Philadelphia's game plan. Always praised as a selfless leader at USC, Havili continues to set a physical tone as LeSean McCoy's lead blocker. And as the Giants ramped up the pass pressure, Havili served as an outlet receiver and surprise running threat.

All-American Caliber

Everyone wants to talk about the last play in the Seattle,Green Bay game. You are all right, it was a bad call. However there was another bad call against Richard Sherman that kept the Green Bay drive alive for a touchdown. Even the tv commentaters called it a bad call. The final score should have been 7-6 Seattle. So get over it. Seattle defense kicked butt.
