Because you said "Surprise Heroes" I restricted choices to unexpected players performing well.

On Defense I think that Peppers and Clark fit because no one is writing much about them as of late and they are due.

On Offense Perhaps Cobb and Michael also fall under the unexpected label.

The other members of the team have been rising to the occasion and have gotten mentioned post games.

Cook and Gunter will step up again but that wont surprise me much.

Mike Daniels. As someone pointed out above, the Giants start Marshall Newhouse as one of their tackles and the other tackle might be worse. CM3/Peppers/Neal have to be licking their chops. But if they force outside pressure and Eli has to do is step up in the pocket and throw to Beckham the Giants offense will still be fine. If Daniels (and Clark and Guion) collapse the pocket up the middle Eli is likely to go into mini-Favre mode.

Offense - Cobb had a huge game last time from the slot. With the emergence of Geronimo we'll likely continue to see more Nelson from the slot. All of this should open things up for Cook, and Monty coming out of the backfield. The way Rodgers is dialed in right now, I won't be surprised if any of the pass catchers (Nelson, Adams, Cobb, Montgomery, Cook, Allison) have big games. I'd like to see Michael with 15+ carries 'cause that means the Packers are controlling the game late.

Defense - ILBs need to contain Perkins. Get DL push from Clark, Guion, Daniels, and either Lowry or Pennel, that will allow the OLBs/Elephants to harass Manning. DBs, keep it all in front of you and beat the sh!t out of Odell at the LOS.

The only surprise at this point in the season would be if Thompson were to sign some street vet DB. 

Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again.
