What was last year's biggest weakness on defense has become a strength so far this season.
The Giants' run defense is statistically the third-best in the NFL, allowing only 68 yards per game. It has not allowed a run of more than 15 yards and against the Falcons allowed only 56 in the game, the lowest total by an opponent since 2013.
"The numbers are okay," Tom Coughlin said. "I'm certainly not going to find fault with that part of it."
Tomorrow night those numbers, along with the Giants' line, will be put to the test.
