. RUN DEFENSE. A. .

The Giants’ run defense wasn’t needed much this week, as the Titans fell behind early and had to abandon the run early. Locker was actually the leading rusher for the Titans, as he scrambled for 28 yards on two attempts. Starting running back Bishop Sankey was a non-factor, rushing nine times for 25 yards.

It was an impressive outing for what has been a bad Giants rush defense. They have to be happy that Mettenberger was under center more a majority of the game, as Locker is the type of quarterback the Giants have struggled with this season with read options and the mobility he has.
