A few talking points after the Seahawks’ 36-25 victory over the Giants on Sunday:
RUNNING EMPTY
Brandon Jacobs was unavailable because of a knee injury, and the Giants failed yet again to establish their running game (Ahmad Bradshaw had just 58 yards rushing). As the Giants head toward the cold-weather months, how big a concern is the lack of production on the ground?
PROMISING PERFORMANCE
It will get lost in the analysis of what went wrong for the Giants, but linebacker Jacquian Williams had another solid performance, recording 7 tackles, an assist and a pass defended. Williams, a rookie from South Florida, has continued to gain the trust of the defensive coordinator Perry Fewell and is seeing increased snaps.
NUMBER: 7
That’s how many sacks Jason Pierre-Paul has recorded in five games this season, or two and a half more than he had in all of 2010. Pierre-Paul, who has started every game in place of either Justin Tuck or Osi Umenyiora, continued to dominate on the defensive line, recording five tackles and two and a half sacks against Seattle.
