Monday night was an important night in Giants history. The team recorded its 600th franchise victory to accomplish a goal that only the Packers and Bears had previously accomplished. A player who helped the team accomplish quite a few of those wins had a rather important night himself. On this night Amani Toomer caught his 48th carreer touchdown which ties him with Kyle Rote for the most in Giants history. He also broke former teammate Tiki Barber's record for most career receptions by catching his 587th pass as a Giant.
Amani is a player that often times goes under the radar for the Giants, he is a quiet guy on a team dominated by loud personalities. Toomers play however, does not go under the radar with Giants fans. It is common knowledge among Giants fans that when the Giants need a big first down Toomer is going to be open and make a play or at least make a valliant attempt. He makes impossible catches seem routine, especially with his graceful sideline catches as evidenced on his catch that broke the receptions record.
I felt I had to write this article to give Amani Toomer, The Best Giants Receiver of All Time, credit. He doesnt get near enough for all of the spectacular plays he makes for the Giants.
