Anatomy of Giants’ 18-play, 97-yard drive

The New York Giants manufactured an early 18-play, 97-yard drive that ended in their only offensive touchdown against the Washington Commanders in Week 15. Quarterback Daniel Jones completed 10 passes, including a third-and-9 and a fourth-and-9 from the Washington 35-yard line.

It was arguably the most impressive drive of the season, and it couldn’t have come in a more important game. The Giants' chances to make the playoffs drastically improved with this 20-12 victory over Washington.

It was obvious offensive coordinator Mike Kafka understood how to attack Jack Del Rio’s defensive unit. The Giants worked the quick passing game, attacked the off-leveraged quarters/two-high looks, and created simple reads for Daniel Jones to execute.
