EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J., Nov. 16 (UPI) -- The New York Giants plundered Baltimore's vaunted defense Sunday for 207 rushing yards on the way to a dominant 30-10 victory.

The reigning Super Bowl champions set a quick tone by scoring touchdowns on their initial three possessions, and won their fifth game in a row.

Two touchdowns were scored by 264-pound running back Brandon Jacobs, who finished with 73 yards on 11 attempts.

Fellow running back Ahmad Bradshaw gained 96 yards on nine carries, one a 77-yard, fourth-quarter sprint, while a third running back, Derrick Ward, compiled 95 all-purpose yards (54 receiving, 41 rushing).

Also, Giants cornerback Aaron Ross scored on a 50-yard pass interception return in the third quarter.

Rookie quarterback Joe Flacco completed 20-of-33 passes for 164 yards and one touchdown, but his four-game streak without an interception was stopped by two picks. Flacco also rushed for 57 yards on six attempts.

Running back Le'Ron McClain caught Flacco's 10-yard scoring pass in the third quarter for the Ravens, whose four-game winning streak ended.
