The Giants are in the playoffs for the first time since 2016 under the guidance of first-year head coach Brian Daboll. Giants and Vikings both have something to prove The 14-3 Eagles have already beat the Giants twice this regular season. They will now face the Eagles in Philadelphia in the Divisional Round next week, a much heftier task. This marks the first time the Giants have advanced to the NFC Divisional Round since 2011, the year they won the Super Bowl. His fellow star, running back Saquon Barkley was responsible for two touchdowns while also gaining 109 yards on 14 touches. Giants to face Eagles in NFC Divisional Round
#VIKINGS SCORE CURRENT PLUS#
Giants quarterback Daniel Jones finished 24-of-35 for 301 yards and two touchdowns, plus 28 yards on 17 carries. They ended the game with one more touchdown to make it a 31-24 lead and the Vikings were never able to catch back up to them. They got another touchdown to start the second half, leading the Vikings 24-14, and then allowed one more Vikings touchdown and field goal to tie it up again 24-24 in the 4th quarter. Though the game remained close, the Giants never fell behind again. They then went on to score another touchdown and a field goal before the Vikings managed to find the end zone again. But the Giants started off even hotter, answering with one of their own. The Vikings started off hot, scoring a touchdown on their opening drive. And this time, that meant ending the Vikings' season and moving on to the Divisional Round of the playoffs. But this time, the Giants stayed ahead for the majority of the game and came out on top. There was quite a bit of back-and-forth action and the game stayed close like it did when the Vikings and Giants played on Christmas Eve. Did this game prove the Giants are for real? And/or did it prove the Vikings aren't? I'm not convinced of either, but it doesn't matter because the Giants were clearly the better team today. I said before the game that both teams needed to prove their season wasn't a fluke. I did not see this coming! The Giants beat the Vikings 31-24.
