The Browns are also allowing 4.8 yards per carry, which is the second-worst mark in the NFL. They have given up 14 rushing touchdowns, which is tied for the most in the NFL.
In short, the Browns have been terrible against the run lately, and they will need to improve in that area if they want to turn things around.
The New York Giants
The New York Giants have the worst rushing defense in the NFL. They have given up an average of 169.8 yards per game on the ground. The Giants have also given up 20 rushing touchdowns, which is the most in the NFL. The Giants’ poor rushing defense has been a big reason why they have struggled this season.
The New York Giants have given up an average of 138.3 rushing yards per game.

In their most recent game, a 28-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, the Giants allowed 194 rushing yards and two touchdowns. It was the third time this season that the Giants have given up more than 190 yards on the ground, and they are now one of only two teams in NFL history to allow that many rushing yards in three different games in a single season.
The other team to do so is the 1950 New York Giants, who ironically also gave up an average of 138.3 rushing yards per game. That 1950 team went 3-9, while this year’s squad is on pace to match that record.
They have given up 18 rushing touchdowns.
The New York Giants have the worst rushing defense in the NFL. They have given up 18 rushing touchdowns and an average of 130.1 yards per game. The Giants are also allowing 4.8 yards per carry, which is the second-worst mark in the league.

The Indianapolis Colts
The Indianapolis Colts have the worst rushing defense in the NFL. They have given up an average of 170.8 rushing yards per game, and they have only stopped one team all season. The Colts have a lot of work to do if they want to improve their rushing defense.
The Indianapolis Colts have given up an average of 137.1 rushing yards per game.
With the exception of the Green Bay Packers, who have had the luxury of playing eight games against teams with either a below-.500 record or a quarterback not named Aaron Rodgers, no team has allowed more rushing yards per game than the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts have given up an average of 137.1 rushing yards per game, which is more than four yards per game worse than the 31st-ranked New York Jets.
The Colts’ struggles against the run are even more pronounced when you consider that they have faced some of the weakest rushing offenses in the NFL. Seven of the Colts’ opponents rank in the bottom half of the league in rushing offense, and three of those (the Texans, Browns and Raiders) rank in the bottom third.
They have given up 19 rushing touchdowns.
The Indianapolis Colts have the worst rushing defense in the NFL. They have given up 19 rushing touchdowns and an average of 141.6 rushing yards per game. The Colts have only been able to stop the run on 3rd down 31.8% of the time, which is the 2nd worst in the NFL.
They have allowed opposing teams to convert 47% of their third downs.
The Indianapolis Colts have the dubious distinction of having the worst rushing defense in the NFL. They have allowed opposing teams to convert 47% of their third downs, and they have given up an average of 5.2 yards per carry. In addition, they have allowed 10 rushing touchdowns, which is tied for the most in the league.
The Colts’ struggles against the run are even more glaring when you consider that they have one of the best pass defenses in the NFL. They are ranked second in the league in passing yards allowed per game, and they have given up only seven touchdown passes.
So why are the Colts so bad at stopping the run? There are a number of factors that contribute to their poor performance. First, they have been hit hard by injuries, especially on the defensive line. Second, they are not getting enough push up front from their defensive line, and third, their linebackers are not doing a good job of shedding blockers and making tackles.
If the Colts want to turn things around on defense, they need to start by fixing their problems up front. If they can do that, then they will give themselves a much better chance of stopping opposing teams’ running attacks.
