Scout's take: Giants a perfect team for Titans to attack deep
By BLAKE BEDDINGFIELD, special contributor
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Giants are no longer an Eli Manning-run team. This offense, and ultimately the team, will have success if the rookie running back, Saquon Barkley, is going well.
Barkley can run in between the tackles, and outside the perimeter of the defense, but he is also extremely dangerous as a receiver.
The type of production Barkley is having rivals Marshall Faulk and Le’Veon Bell. The Titans will need to limit his touches as a receiver and gang tackle and be physical when he is a runner.
Odell Beckham Jr, is out, which means the Titans will be able to focus their attention on Barkley.
Beckham and Barkley are a tough duo and when they both play, the combination opens up both the screen game to Barkley and the vertical game to Beckham.
