Run the Ball Last week, the Carolina Panthers rushed for 185 yards on 34 carries, a 5.4 average. Their top two running backs combined for 30 carries, 174 yards, and two touchdowns. Needless to say, the Atlanta Falcons can be run on, and that was the key to the Panthers' 28-19 victory. Likewise, the Giants must get back to what they used to do best and pound the ball. For various reasons, Kevin Gilbride has not called Brandon Jacobs' number all that much recently (by the way, it&...

Yes, you read that right. All Giants practiced today. Aaron Ross practiced. Even Ahmad Bradshaw practiced. This is good news for the G-Men. This bye week has done them wonders.

All the Giants were on the field today for practice. CB Aaron Ross was out there and RB Ahmad Bradshaw scrapped the boot too and switched up his normal schedule and practiced today. I’ll update you later when coach Tom Coughlin meets with the media. So strange not to be writing a ton of Giants players’ names with injuries next to them in this blog for once.

Instead, as has been the case for a number of weeks, he remained on the sideline in a protective walking boot. The news for other Giants was much more promising, however. Case and point: Justin Tuck. Tuck, who has been battling a shoulder injury since early in the season, said the bye week has ...

But he remains one bad step away from suffering a potentially season-ending injury, which could happen if the crack breaks all the way through the bone. “It’s a cracked bone in my foot, on the outside of my foot, which is probably the easiest bone to break. There’s a chance of it breakin...

And according to Dr. Robert Anderson, the same doctor whom Plaxico Burress visited in 2007, that is currently the best course of action.

Bradshaw, who has 455 rushing yards this season, will be examined by Dr. Robert Anderson, the noted orthopedic surgeon who is often consulted on second opinions by NFL players. It’s not believed that Bradshaw went there because of any setback he might have suffered in Sunday night’s game. However, though he appeared f...

But the coach admitted that he was a bit surprised. “No, it is just the way it was supposed to be,” Coughlin said when asked if the boot was a sign of a setback after Bradshaw participated on Wednesday. “He worked a little bit yesterday. And to be honest with you, it surprised me too. But he wanted to work. And felt like he was good enough to do that. So...

Usually that description refers to the defensive players who are trying to stop him. But in Ahmad Bradshaw's case, it's his own ankle that takes the brunt of his moves.Wednesday the Giants' running back was wearing a protective boot as treatment for an ankle injury that he said has been lingering since his freshman year in...
