In a wildly miscalculated, un-flexible Monday Night thriller, the Giants earned their second win of the season over the similarly disheveled 49ers with a 27-23 comeback victory. Here’s what we learned…
1. At least Odell Beckham is happy again. This was a warm-blanket game for Giants fans, who got to walk away from the evening with the illusion that Eli Manning still has it, and Odell Beckham is still interested in staying here for a while. The two Beckham touchdowns were throwbacks to a bygone era. One came on a go route that Manning can still throw with surprising consistency from close distances, and the other on a settle that saw Beckham float backwards, between and behind double coverage, giving him just enough room for the score.
