Will the Giants run on the Patriots?
This article on Brandon Jacobs and Vince Wilfork doesn't get into the real question - can the Giants run on the Patriots?
Jacobs did a good job getting positive yardage on first and second down when the Giants and Patriots played a few weeks ago. He had a few real nice runs, running over Rodney Harrison on one play and jumping over him on another. Bill Belechik might have a better plan for stopping Jacobs this time around. They don't call the guy brilliant for nothing.
What the Giants didn't have in that game was Ahmad Bradshaw and this guy has proven to be a good runner.
I like the Giants chances in the super bowl. If they can run the ball then the game could be decided by turnovers (assuming New England's offense is succesful). Our corners can catch (anyone miss Will Allen?) and our offensive guys usually hold onto the ball.
