You did not shut down Jacobs here are his stats:
15 carries, 67 yards, long of 16 (trucked Harrison).
5 receptions, 44 yards and 1 TD
Remember the Giants had the ball for less than 24 minutes, thanks to your OFFENSE!! NOT your DEFENSE!!
In that short time Jacobs racked up over 110 offensive yards, and a TD.
In the SB the Giants will also have Bradshaw playing.
As I said before, you better hope your offense controls the clock and scores often to force the Giants to pass.
The Giants running game is very strong.
Wait--now the Giants running game includes passing yards?
Jacobs is a talent, but you keep pointing out that he 'trucked' Harrison without recognizing that the players charged with stopping him are Warren, Wilfork and Seymour in the middle and Vrabel and Thomas on the edge. Those aren't 220lb safeties--that is an average of close to 300lbs of blue chip talent. I like our chances.
The Giants will likely need to amass a total of more than 175 rushing yards to win this game. If you think that this is a high probability occurrence then you are indeed being obtuse.
