Good for Cam Skattebo for leading the Giants in both rushing and receiving yards on Sunday night.

But that can’t be what the Giants had in mind when they entered the game, a 22-9 loss to Kansas City, in which the deep ball was virtually ignored in favor of mostly Skattebo and more Skattebo.
Maybe the Giants thought they had a new version of Thunder and Lightning.
After getting the opening kickoff, the Giants went to Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Skattebo for their first 10 plays of the game.
The strategy got the Giants down to Kansas City’s 28-yard line, but stalled there.
And even after they fell behind later in the quarter, when the Giants got the ball back, four of the next five plays involved the pair of running backs.
It all changed, though, when Tracy was knocked out of the game after taking a ferocious hit near the Kansas City sideline on a short pass play.
