EAST RUTHERFORD — The Giants became the second team to end a curse this week.
While the Chicago Cubs gained slightly more acclaim for ending a 108-year World Series drought, the Giants ended their own curse on Sunday with a 28-23 win over the Eagles in front of 80,309 fans at MetLife Stadium.
It wasn't easy, as the Giants had to hold on after a late interception by Eli Manning in their own territory. The Eagles got to the Giants' 17-yard line before Carson Wentz failed to connect with Jordan Matthews in the end zone with Trevin Wade in coverage on fourth down with 1:28 remaining.
