Giant heartbreak: Unbeaten Patriots escape with last-second win on Stephen Gostkowski's 54-yard field goal

The Giants nearly earned the second-most improbable win over the unbeaten Patriots in team history on Sunday.

Instead, they had to deal with the kind of heartbreak they'd been dishing to New England for the past eight years. Stephen Gostkowski kicked a 54-yard field goal with one second remaining to give the Patriots a 27-26 win at MetLife Stadium.

Josh Brown kicked a 29-yard field goal with 1:47 remaining to give the Giants a 26-24 lead. The Giants nearly scored a touchdown on the drive, which started at their own 3, when Eli Manning hit Odell Beckham Jr.
