Brandon Jacobs Runs Over LaRon Landry During New York Giants 16-7 Win Over Washington Redskins
Brandon Jacobs Injures Redskins For Sport


I don't know what Tom Coughlin's thoughts were on Brandon Jacobs entering this season, but I do know that certain members of the media were suggesting that perhaps the Giants should start to wean Jacobs from being the team's primary featured back.

Why in God's name you'd want to take carries away from a guy who averaged 5 yards per carry last season is beyond me, even though Jacobs missed five games due to injury. I guess the knock on Jacobs is that he sometimes gets too cute and doesn't stick his head down and use his noggin to knock guys over. Again, why people were saying this about a guy who averaged 5 yards a carry last season makes no sense, but I digress.

My guess is somebody told Jacobs about those asinine suggestions, because last night he ran like a Mack truck, going for 116 yards on 21 carries, and he also laid out LaRon Landry with an incredibly vicious hit. What was that about Jacobs not wanting to slam into guys?

By the way, Jacobs also has a history of killing Redskins players. Here's what he did to Fred Smoot last year. Boom.

Did Landry get credit for a tackle on that one? I mean... it seems like he was the one that made Jacobs go down, and H.B. Blades (54) finished him off. It hardly seems fair for a guy to get credit for getting blown up like that, but I suppose it's like a consolation prize...
