The 1927 New York Giants gave up 20 points – the entire season. In their 13 games, in which they went 11-1-1, the Giants allowed an average of 1.5 points per game and scored 15.2 per contest, which was second-most in the 12-team league. Playing at the Polo Grounds, and under the leadership of head coach Earl Potteiger, the Giants allowed points in just three games: to the Chicago Bears, the Chicago Cardinals, and the Cleveland Bulldogs, their only loss. Teams they defeated included the Duluth Eskimos (21-0) and the Pottsville Maroons (twice, by 19-0 and 16-0). The Giants’ biggest defensive play all season was a 54-yard interception return by Mule Wilson. On the season, fullback Jack McBride rushed for six touchdowns, halfback Hinkey Hanes (who also won a World Series as a Yankees outfielder in 1923) had six total TDs, and Wilson, a Honey Grove, Tex. native, also scored six touchdowns.
