The result is the Giants best start since the 1990 Super Bowl season.

Rodney Hampton carried a career-high 41 times for 134 yards and a touchdown, and the Giants (3-0) shut down the Rams by controlling the ball for 43 minutes, 29 sec-onds Sunday in a 20-10 victory. Giants 20 Rams 10 It's nice to be able to dictate the flow of the game," Giants guard William Roberts said. We have a lot of weapons. In the past we were very predictable. Now we have diversity and creativity." And that created a big problem for the Rams (12), even though it didnt translate into a lot of points for the Giants.

Los Angeles just didn't know what to do against the Giants' offense, particularly on third down New York made 10 of-19. third-down chances mixing both the run and pass to convert. Not only did it move the chains, but it kept the Rams offense off the field Rams defensive tackle Sean Gilbert said he felt like he was on the field the hole game We had chance after chance to give the offense the ball, and we couldn't get it done, he said "One way or another we have to create turnovers and we didnt today Thats frustrating but its not the end of the world The victor) was only the Giants' second in their last seven games against LA and there was sweet ness in it for some players Cornerback Mark Collins, who was burned by Jim Everett and Flip per Anderson for a game winning touchdown in a 1989 playoff game, got a measure of revenge by return ing a Upped pass 50 yards for a TD That gave the Giants a 203 lead ith 4.32 to play in Uie third quarter, but it didnt put the Rams away Everett hooked up ith Anderson on a 51 yard scoring play early in the fourth quarter The Rams then got a chance to make things closer when Jarrod Bunch lost his second fumble at the Giants 47 Lions see renewed Saints NEW ORLEANS (AP) Whatever was rung ith the New Orleans defense, ranked 26th in the NFL after tw games, as cured Sunday by the return of Pat Sw llling With one slight difference Swilling was wearing a Detroit uniform.
