EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York Giants defense has always prided itself on stopping the run.

And that is something the Giants haven’t done the past two weeks despite beating Philadelphia and Arizona.

The Eagles gashed the Giants (3-1) for 177 yards on the ground with LeSean McCoy picking up 128. The Cardinals followed by gaining 156 yards, with Beanie Wells getting 138.

Coach Tom Coughlin says that’s not a good formula for winning, and he intends to take “extraordinary means” to solve the problem this week against the Seattle Seahawks (1-3).
