The Giants had only one possession of more than seven plays, their only touchdown came on a 35-yard drive, and their longest gain from scrimmage was 25 yards. They should be thanking the group named after their grade here for winning the game. The offensive line did a very good job of protecting Eli Manning from a tough Rams front, but the running game (36 yards on 20 carries) was almost nonexistent. Manning completed 24 of 37 passes but for only 196 yards (8.2 yards per completion). Victor Cruz led the team with 55 receiving yards. The Giants turned the ball over to hand the Rams a touchdown, and they were 4-for-13 on third downs.
