    I think Osi is on the verge of superstardom.</p>

    He has looked more and more unblockable and requires a constant double team.</p>

    If he stays healthy all season, the Giants defense won't be as bad as people think - and he has a chance to lead the league in sacks.</p>

    He's back healthy tonight.</p>

    If the Eagles don't double him, who knows how many sacks he'll have.</p>

    He already has 3, right? If he stays healthy he is going to be a star.</p>

    5 so far for Osi...sets the Giants record for most sacks in a game by one player. And the teams 11 sacks breaks the offical Giants record (a team back from the 60s had 11, but it wasn't an offical stat then).</p>

    Looks like they just tied (?) the NFL record</p>

    Osi looks sick out there, truly a man amongst boys. Not to take anything away from him, but Winston Justice does NOT look like an NFL player out there. Osi is just making him look ridiculous.</p>

    He's exausted from running over and around Winston Justice all night.</p>

    He's not that bad. His coaches hung him out to dry.</p>

    There's a lot of tackles that can't block Osi.</p>

    he obviously needed to be double teamed every down but Reid was smart and left them alone. I can't believe the Giants D has turned it around the last game 1/2. Next we've got Pennington and the Jets</p>

    Deacon Jones said once that he had 19 in one game.</p>

    I kind of believed him.</p>

    He's leading the NFL with eight sacks, even though six were in the same game.</p>

    The speed he showed while scoring the touchdown against the 49ers was amazing.</p>

    A true indicator of how dominant he is, though is that Justin Tuck has seven sacks - and at least part of a sack in all the games this season but one.</p>

    That can directly be attributed to the double teams that Osi demands.</p>

    On other teams, Tuck would probably draw double teams himself.</p>

    I was actually going to post about this. I think Osi's running away with the DPOY. He's been simply dominant this season and doesn't look to stop anytime soon.</p>
