A record 5 FG's obviously puts Myer in hero status. But did anyone see the kickoff with 3:35 left on the 4th, #5 going head first around the 40 to knock the returner out of bounds?

That returner almost got around the end and could have scored! But Myers changed his trajectory, forcing him to go wider, then took him out for sure!

Michael Dickson. He was INCREDIBLE. Flipped that field position all....night.....long.
Special Teams was huge in a game when Rasheed didn't do anything. Another piece of evidence that this genuinely was a complete team effort the entire season as they picked each other up game after game.

Josh Jones. We didn't miss a beat when Cross went out in one of the most important positions. Played in some big games and by all accounts was pretty banged up in some of them and could barely walk after.

Love the Charbonet love in that video. Guy helped carry us through the season. Tough way to end his season. Hope he can come back next year some time.

Dickson and Meyers are the unsung heros.

They put the 'Special' in Special Teams.

Drake Thomas, this kid filled in this yr and the defense didn’t really miss a beat. The kid is a ******* monster and played wild

not a player but I think our DC should get a mention. Seems to stay out of the limelight and barely gets a mention in the press but if you hear MM talk about him you know how important he is to the team

I'd have to go with Dickson also. An unsung hero by definition is the guy who doesn't get the recognition despite making the huge difference. Myers, the defense, K9 all got talked about as I recall. I don't remember hearing any talk on the broadcast about Dickson. I could be mistaken, but that's my take.

You know, Kupp made some nice catches when we needed it. They use him for so much blocking it was nice that he picked up some slack when JSN got banged up.

Barner. I wasn't a fan of his last year but he played a big role this year and ended up our #2 WR catch wise I believe.
Had the only TD in the SuperBowl which was a very important one.
