One of the most underrated plays of the game was delivered by rookie QB Kevin O'Connell. Taking over in the fourth quarter, and facing a second-and-7 from the Giants' 16-yard line, he noticed pre-snap that safety Sammy Knight and linebacker Geris Wilkinson were showing blitz. O'Connell checked off the original play -- the correct call -- and delivered a beautiful strike in the back left-hand corner of the end zone to Chad Jackson for a 16-yard touchdown. Jackson beat 1-on-1 coverage. It's plays like that which make O'Connell a promising possible No. 2 option.
