From Pro Football Weekly's The Way We Here It section:NT Robbins makes a difference when he's healthy; There were coaches and teammates of NT Fred Robbins who were upset that he was only mentioned as a second alternate to the Pro Bowl, and those individuals will tell you that Robbins has been one of the biggest reasons for the team’s success in containing good run games this season. Case in point: Robbins missed the Dallas game with a bruised and jammed shoulder, and rookie RB Tashard Choice dashed for 91 yards on nine carries.The Giants have a smaller, more athletic front, but Robbins combines size and quickness to be the team’s best interior defender. He notched most of his sacks earlier in the season, but he’s an underrated run stopper who is, in a way, the glue to the Giants’ front.Robbins was back in the lineup against the Panthers in the crucial Week 16 Sunday-night game, and though the Panthers ran for 158 yards, the Giants made some key stops late when it mattered most and generally were solid against inside runs.
