Eagles running back LeGarrette Blount is known for his physical, downhill running style, which is a big part of why he’s so tough to bring down once he gets his legs churning.

The Giants learned that lesson during Sunday’s game, when Blount ran over a few defenders who attempted to get in his way.

It happened in the first quarter of the game, and began when Blount received a handoff on a first-and-10 situation. He appeared to be stopped twice when he absorbed hits from Giants defenders, but that didn’t faze him, as he ran over them.

The end result of the play was a 17-yard run to move the chains, and Blount was pumped about it.

Blount looked like Marshawn Lynch in his prime on that run.
