That 2008 win was thanks to the Giants rushing attack, which was best in the league. You can see how much the run game – and a solid defense – can swing a game’s outcome. Eli had almost identical numbers in 2012, if not slightly better, and Big Blue was on the wrong side of the blowout.
Fortunately, the G-Men will host the Ravens at MetLife this time around. The key will be to limit the big plays and get off the field on third down. If this meeting comes down to field goals, the Giants should prevail.
