The key for the Giants is to take as much of the burden off Colt McCoy as possible, giving him a running game and the ability to throw off play-action. This figures to be a jolt to the senses on defense, having to deal with Russell Wilson after so much slop served up against them at quarterback. Tough task, but Joe Judge’s imperfect team is not easy to beat badly.

Seahawks 27, Giants 19.

Seahawks WRs DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett vs. Giants CBs James Bradberry and Isaac Yiadom

What to do, what to do? Bradberry is skilled enough to have him travel all over the field with the hulking Metcalf, but that might not be the smartest play here. Lockett (70-771, eight TDs) is actually the more accomplished receiver and will need extra attention as well, with Yiadom and also safety help. Figure defensive coordinator Patrick Graham will mix up the coverage. Metcalf (58-1,039, nine TDs) is averaging 17.9 yards per reception and devastated an excellent corner, Darius Slay, last Monday night.

Smooth landing:Jamal Adams talked and tweeted his way off the Jets and his trade to the Seahawks thus far is a smashing success. He is the perfect antidote for a defense lacking in front-level pass rush, as Adams from his strong safety position leads the team with 6.5 sacks. He is incredible on the blitz. Just ask Daniel Jones, who had the football ripped away by Adams for an embarrassing forced fumble, fumble-recovery touchdown last season in the Giants-Jets clash.

“He’s been awesome,’’ Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said of Adams. “He’s been nothing but high energy. Very humble, very outgoing on the field and around our players. Really high-spirited at all times. He’s a dream. He’s the kind of guy you want to add to your team. He brings juice, toughness, playmaking and he’s really humble around other players and that he loves to celebrate their good plays and the things they do.’’

I spy: The early-season talk about Russell Wilson as the league MVP has quieted, but there is no denying he is having another sensational season. Wilson is completing nearly 71 percent of his passes and already has 31 touchdown passes. Everyone knows how much damage he can do with his legs — he has 379 rushing yards and averaging 6.2 yards per attempt. Should the Giants assign a defender to spy him?

“I can tell you stories of using a spy before and the spy didn’t tackle the quarterback and the spy wasn’t good enough to get the quarterback,’’ defensive coordinator Patrick Graham said. “You try to figure the best guys to tackle them.’’

All aboard: Saquon Barkley smiled this past week when asked about the running back who replaced him since his season-ending knee injury in Week 2. “Wayne Train,’’ Barkley said. Wayne Gallman is on a roll and coming off a career-high 24 carries in a 94-yard performance against the Bengals. His penchant to fall forward for a few extra yards is striking.

“In so many ways, your running back can be the heartbeat of your team’’ offensive coordinator Jason Garrett said, praising the way Gallman fights for every inch of grass or turf. “I think it’s a critical trait.”

The Seahawks are 26th in the NFL in rushing touchdowns allowed.

Different strokes: The Giants in 11 games have given up 214 points. The Seahawks are at 304. How the mighty have fallen. Seattle has a suspect defense: 26th in the league in points allowed, 32nd (dead last) in yards allowed. They are tied for seventh with 31 sacks, but that total is not much higher than the Giants, who have 27 sacks this season. The Patriots (30), Cowboys (31), Cardinals (37) and Bills (44) all scored at least 30 points on the Seahawks. This defense does not get any motivation from the ear-splitting crowd noise, as the notorious “12s’’ are not allowed in the building this season.
