Buffalo (4-1, 1-1 V) got a 31-24, home win over the Philadelphia Eagles, in Week 5. QB Ryan Fitzpatrick went 21 of 27 for 193 yards passing and a touchdown. RB Fred Jackson combined for 196 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown, and LB Nick Barnett had two of Buffalo's four interceptions. Buffalo now has 12 interceptions – one more than it had all of last year. Bills coach Chan Gailey talked about how he wanted his team to be bigger and more physical. The head coach got what he wanted and more. The Bills had too much size, too much Jackson and too much ball-hawking defense for the faster, more celebrated Eagles. "That was our game plan," said QB Ryan Fitzpatrick after Buffalo's victory. "We were going to let the guys up front who we thought were bigger, stronger, take control of the game. They did a good job." You can bet the farm they’ll do the same against the Giants weak rush defense that gave up +100 yards rushing to the Seahawks 28th ranked ground game.
Giants (3-2, 1-1 H) lost to Seattle 25-36, at home, in Week 5. QB Eli Manning made 24 of 39 for 420 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions. RB Ahmad Bradshaw had 17 carries for 58 yards, while WR Victor Cruz made eight catches for 161 yards with a touchdown. TE Jake Ballard also caught a touchdown pass. The Giants have always been a team that runs the ball and stops the run. Those are usually the starting points for everything the Giants want to accomplish. That, however, is not what the Giants are after five games this season. They couldn't run it much at all (69 rushing yards) on the Seahawks and didn't stop much of anything (145 yards allowed) from a Seahawks team far more interested in throwing for yards than running for them. The running game has been nothing short of terrible. The longest run of the season is 37 yards by Ahmad Bradshaw against the Eagles, and there have been only eight runs of 10 yards or more. The Giants are averaging only 3.2 yards per attempt.
