- [Giants 37 vs Cardinals 29] Whisenhunt gambled a bit in the fourth quarter when he called for an onside kick with four minutes left, rather than kicking it away. The Cardinals, down by eight points, had two timeouts remaining and could have decided to try and stop the Giants.
"I thought maybe we'd have a good shot at it without them having their 'hands team' on the field," Whisenhunt said. "And we actually caught them by surprise."
The ball bounced in and out of cornerback Ralph Brown's hands, and the Giants recovered.
"It got up on my quick, and I looked away at the last minute because I felt some guys coming," Brown said. "I didn't focus all the way on the ball." (AZCentral.com)

- Harbaugh praised punter Sam Koch, saying he's thinks he has a legitimate shot at making the Pro Bowl. Koch is averaging 45.3 yards, 39.9 net with 20 downed inside opponents' 20-yard line.
"Sam has been great all year," Harbaugh said. "There are always two or three punts maybe in the last five or six weeks that he'd like to have back. He would probably tell you that I'm his worst critic, but I think he's his worst critic."
