Giants' Pat Shurmur rose to the occasion in win over Bears

LANDOVER, Md.

There is no undoing the consequences of what went wrong on the afternoon of Nov. 25, and Pat Shurmur had to reckon with the reality that any meaningful hope of a divisional title had evaporated.

The Giants blew a 19-3 first-half lead and suffered a 25-22 loss to the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles in Philadelphia, and Shurmur played a central role in the collapse.

He gambled and lost badly by having Eli Manning throw a deep pass to Odell Beckham Jr. near the end of the first half that was intercepted by Malcolm Jenkins.
