THE LAST MEETING
WEEK 4: Saints 33, New York Giants 18; September 30, 2018 @ MetLife Stadium – The Saints posted an impressive victory against the Giants behind a powerful running game and Outstanding run-stopping effort.

The Giants scored on their first offensive drive, taking a 7-0 lead on a two-yard TD connection between QB Eli Manning and WR Sterling Shepard.

When the Saints got the ball back, QB Drew Brees engineered a 15-play, 51-yard drive that ended with a Wil Lutz 42-yard field goal on the first play of the second quarter, the first of four successful kicks in the quarter to give the Saints a 12-7 halftime lead. The Saints defense then proceeded to clamp down on the Giants offense as they allowed only 65 rushing yards, fumbles were forced by DT Tyeler Davison and CB P.J. Williams and recovered by CB Marshon Lattimore and DL Taylor Stallworth, while Manning was sacked three times, the defense allowing him to average only 5.3 yards per attempt.

QB Drew Brees completed 18 of 32 passes for 217 yards as the Saints ran up 170 yards on the ground. RB Alvin Kamara carried 19 times for 134 yards (7.1 avg) and three touchdowns. In the passing game, Kamara led the team in receiving with five grabs for 47 yards, for a game-high total of 181 total yards from scrimmage.
