The New York Giants got ambushed by the Cleveland Browns last night.  Eli Manning looked like a deer in headlights as he completed 18 of 28 passes for 196 yards with 1 TD pass and 3 interceptions.  The Giants should have stuck to the ground game a little bit more as the running backs were very effective last night.  Derrick Ward rushed for 101 yards on 10 carries (10.1 ypc) last night and Brandon Jacobs rushed for 67 yards on 14 carries (4.8 ypc) with a TD run.  Steve Smith was the leading receiver last night for the Giants with 9 grabs for 94 yards (10.4 avg).  Plaxico Burress also had a decent game catching 4 passes for 58 yards (14.5 avg) with 1 TD grab.  The Giants finished up last night with 181 yards rushing on 25 carries (7.2 ypc) and they also completed 18 of 28 passes for 192 yards.

The defense was awful last night for the Giants as the Browns didn’t even punt one time!  The Browns rushed for 144 yards on 30 carries (4.8 ypc) and they also completed 18 of 29 passes for 310 yards.  The Giants are now 4-1 on the season after this loss.
