EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) – The key for the New York Giants is running the ball.
Have any doubts? Look at the numbers heading into the Giants’ possible playoff clincher at Green Bay on Sunday.
New York (9-5) is 7-0 this season when it gains more than 120 yards rushing. Anything below 120 and it’s not good. The Giants are 2-5 when they gain under 120 yards and 0-4 with anything below 117 yards.
It’s an even bigger concern this weekend, with the Giants coming off their second worst rushing effort of the season. Philadelphia, which limited them to season-low 61 yards on Nov. 21, held the Giants to 100 yards on 31 carries in Sunday’s gut-wrenching 38-31 loss.
