I'm gonna vote for the Offensive Line. Playing without Mankins, against one of the better defensive lines in the game, and nullifying them especially after poor performances the last two games, is an awesome sign. _________________

I voted for Wilfork. He was dominate today and destroyed Jone's life. _________________

Easy one IMO.
Bolden all the way. |

The OL played great.
Bolden looked awesome, but we already knew he's fast and strong. We don't know if he can run against base fronts and in big games. With the OL paving gaping holes for him, we didn't find that out.
It is interesting to see him get used in somewhat of a "passing game back" role, instead of Woodhead and Vereen. That's a dimension Ridley doesn't have.
I must say, I loved how much Woodhead we saw today. Just enough. _________________

O-line definitely played better than I expected and than most people expected, against a good defensive line. Which allowed Bolden and Ridley to rush for over 200 yards combined. _________________

The OL, especially the makeshift interior line, deserves the game ball for today.
As well as Ridley and Bolden played, the OL was creating big holes against a tough (even if overrated) DL and they were doing it running essentially the same 3-4 plays over and over. |

| Brady kept them in it for so long, allowing the running game to take over. |

Got to love the fact we can have a TE go for 5/104/1 and not even get mentioned for game ball :D
I voted OL, was concerned about them going into this game. |

I thought part of the point of naming it the Tom Brady Award was to exclude Brady from ever being an option because we expect him to be great?
But anyway, the offensive line. None of us expected them to play so well. _________________
