Saints move closer to bye with win over Giants

Football Betting Lines

12/24/2006 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Reggie Bush rushed for a career-high 126 yards with a score, as New Orleans moved one step closer to a first-round bye after a 30-7 win over the fading New York Giants.

Bush recorded the first 100-yard rushing game of his career.

Deuce McAllister added another 108 yards on the ground and a touchdown for the Saints (10-5), who will claim a first-round bye if Philadelphia defeats Dallas on Christmas Day.

Drew Brees threw for 132 yards and a touchdown on 13-of-32 passing, while Marques Colston caught Brees' lone touchdown pass in what was the Saints' fourth win in their last five games.

In what was probably his last game ever at Giants Stadium, 10-year veteran Tiki Barber ran for 71 yards on 16 carries. Barber, who spent all 10 of his seasons with the Giants, has said he plans to retire after the season.

That may be as early as next week as New York's playoff chances took another hit as it fell to 7-8 on the year. Once front runners in the NFC East, the Giants lost for the sixth time in seven games.

Luckily for the Giants, the Atlanta Falcons also lost on Sunday and dropped to 7-8 as well. New York, though, defeated the Falcons back on Week 6. The Giants wrap up their season in Washington while Atlanta travels to Philadelphia.

Atlanta and New York are the front-runners in a pack of teams still alive for the second wild card spot.

Eli Manning completed just nine of his 25 pass attempts for 74 yards. 55 of those yards came on one play, a lone touchdown pass to Plaxico Burress in what turned out to be his lone catch of the game.

Burress' touchdown reception was his 10th of the season, the most by a Giants receiver since Earnest Gray hauled in 10 TD passes in 1980.

In fact, New York never ran a play inside New Orleans territory.

The Giants failed to receive a spark from Michael Strahan, who returned to the lineup after missing the last six games with a sprained foot ligament. Strahan had five tackles in the loss.
