"Kevin Gilbride doesn't have the answer. And he doesn't care one bit.

Over the past two games, the Giants offensive coordinator has watched the league's worst ground game come to life behind a revitalized Brandon Jacobs. Just a few weeks ago, Jacobs seemed ready for the tailback retirement home, but he has exploded for 160 rushing yards and three TDs.

It's a resurgence that has pleasantly surprised Gilbride.

"I think when you're feeling confident about what you're doing, you let it flow, and that's what it looks like he's doing," Gilbride said of Jacobs. "The million-dollar question is why, and I don't have an answer for that. I'm just happy that it's starting to manifest itself, and I think he's doing a good job.""
