Scoring has been a struggle for this team all season, and it continued against the Packers. The Giants had opportunities early, but Odell Beckham Jr. and Sterling Shepard each dropped a potential touchdown pass and Beckham dropped a pass that would have produced a first down in the first two possessions. Eli Manning seemed to be on point and completed 23 of 44 passes for 299 yards but was sabotaged by drops. The running game (59 yards on 16 running back carries) returned to stagnation.
The NYPD — New York Pass Defense — was out of its jurisdiction, especially when Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie left early.
