Agreed. You have to know deep down in your gut what type of team you are.

Last I checked, we're a run the ball, pound it 35 or 40 times a game type of team. We have guys like big Mike Sellers just waiting to put a crater in somebody's chest with his helmet.

I can live with pounding it from the 1 and not making it. We went with our bread and butter. The Giants just got off the ball, what can you do.

Seems like they could have been anticipating the snap count a little. But as far as the playcall, I can't fault that move.

We don't have the offensive line to run the ball 40 times a game..plain and simple. But we do have a big mobile QB....Thank GOD
