Giants struggle, then fumble away opportunity. New York’s offense mustered a combined 10 points in its last two games, and through three quarters, the Giants had scored nine points via three field goals. They’d gained 222 yards entering the fourth, but were just 3 for 8 on third down and hadn’t threatened to reach the end zone since their second drive of the night.
Urgency proved to be the best motivator, as a two-touchdown deficit seemed to wake up this Giants offense, which enjoyed some surprise success on the ground in the fourth. But in the end, the Giants wasted their best chances.
