Ifeadi...  I didn't know he had those kind of wheels.  I realize he was a DE coming out of college and converted to DT this year, but he didn't run like a big boy.  That was a major turning point in the game...  at least a 10 point swing since it looked like the Chargers were going to get a FG at a minimum there.

Boone should get some votes as well.  Cook calls him "Dalvin-lite"...  it's fitting.  He doesn't have quite the same strength to run through arm tackles as Dalvin, but boy is he explosive and runs hard.  I think we'll be OK if Dalvin misses time and we roll with Boone and Mattison.

I went with Hunter.  Although expectations are high, he exceeded them this game.  He was as much a part of that TD by Ifeadi as Ifeadi was.  Through a chip by the RB, he canned the RT on his ass making rivers jump back to protect his feet.  Then he punches the ball out as he sacks Rivers.  As the scramble for the ball ensues, he is back on his feet and knocks down another (willing) offensive lineman to escort IO to the endzone.  And he passed IO like nothing else to get in front for the block.
Then he had another FF and a FR.  Dude has been unstoppable the last two weeks.
Hope he does the same to Rodgers.

Boone surprised the hell out of me with not just one, but two TDs.  The dude was going hard to the goal line on both of those.

Odenigbo.

He has improved significantly since last year.
