I believe that is why it's best to have good depth at the quarterback and running back positions. I've have always preached that no matter what, you always have a good veteran quarterback on your team regardless if he is starting for you or not. That way, if the #1 guy goes down, you have someone who can come in and pick up the offense and move forward. Samething applies with the running game. We have three very good backs that can step in and keep our running game dangerous: Portis, Betts, and Cartwright. If any one of those guys goes down, there is someone there to pick up the slack.

I'm not sure if the Giants have a really good #2 guy as a running back. I believe Tiki is such an important part of the offense, that they tend to rely on him alot.
