Run game abandoned in Giants’ defeat

Posted by GameSetMatch on October 26th, 2009

After saying the Giants had to get back to their old smashmouth ways, Brandon Jacobs had his best game of the season last night, yet he saw the Giants go away from the run — a decision that cost them dearly in their 24-17 loss to Arizona.

“Not to take anything away from their defense, we just didn’t want it enough,” Jacobs said. “I don’t think they were able to really stop us.
