![]() UPON FURTHER REVIEWNOVEMBER 10, 2008 Say this for the Giants - they're not easily satisfied.
The best of the Giants - and the NFL - was on display for the entire nation last night, when they rushed for 219 yards and averaged 4.9 yards a carry in their 36-31 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in Lincoln Financial Field. It was the second game in a row and the fourth time in nine games that they ran for at least 200 yards. That is three more 200-yard rushing games than they posted in the entire 2007 season. The Giants lead the NFL in rushing yards with an average of 168.9 yards a game (11 more than the runner-up Atlanta Falcons). They also top the league with a 5.2-yards-per-carry average. Despite those gaudy numbers, their only objective is to improve, improve and improve some more. "I was just in the weight room with Shaun O'Hara today and I was just kind of in shock over how successful they have been running the ball," defensive tackle Barry Cofield said today on a conference call. "They feel that we haven't been efficient enough. Our offense has been able to control the time of possession in a lot of games and that definitely helps us. ... We definitely take pride in it and we definitely love looking out there and seeing our offensive line pounding the other team.".................READ | ||
