November 2, 2006
Running back TIKI BARBER of the New York Giants, defensive end JULIUS PEPPERS of the Carolina Panthers, and kicker ROBBIE GOULD of the Chicago Bears are the NFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Month for October, the NFL announced today.
Barber led the NFL with 490 rushing yards during the month as the Giants put together a 4-0 record to move into first place in the NFC East with a 5-2 mark. The 10-year veteran rushed for at least 100 yards in three of New York’s four games as the Giants ranked second in the NFL averaging 169.3 rush yards per contest. Barber, who has led the team in rushing for an NFL-record 71 consecutive games, opened the month with a 123-yard performance versus Washington. The next week, facing an Atlanta defense that entered the game tops in the NFC against the run, Barber rushed for an NFL season-best 185 yards, netting him NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors. Facing Dallas on October 23, the former Virginia standout ran for 114 yards in front of a national TV audience on Monday Night Football. Barber added 13 receptions for 110 yards during the month. On the season, Barber leads the NFL with 715 rushing yards.
