11. Justin Tuck , Defensive End

As ESPN’s Dan Graziano reported on December 4, 2013, Tuck deserved to be a Pro-Bowler based on numbers alone. Menacing, quick and capable of anticipating the offensive line better than Steve Spagnuolo himself, Tuck’s responsibility for the key sacks of Tom Brady in the Superbowl game allowed the Giants to keep the game winnable. In the end, he had 10 sacks and 48 tackles. Together with Osi Umenyiora the Giants defensive line was unpredictable and capable of swarming the infamously at the time unbeaten Patriots offensive line.
