Final Score: Giants 24 - Packers 22
As we kicked off to a double headed Monday Night football week, the last thing we expected was to have these two matchups both deliver a spectacular game. The Tennessee Titans kept the explosive Miami Dolphins at bay while the New York Giants, lead by New Jersey native rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito, stun the red hot Green Bay Packers.
Like the other Monday Night game, this game started off slow with the Packers leading by a possession throughout most of the way. Until the Giants popped off for 2 touchdowns in the 3rd quarter. These scores put the Giants in the driver seat heading into the 4th quarter.
New Yorks' running back Saquon Barkley ran for 86 yards and 2 touchdowns, but almost fumbled the game away. Barkley rips a big gain late in the 4th but is chased down and fumbles the ball; giving the Packers the ball and an opportunity to win the game. Packers quarterback Jordan Love takes his team down the field and scores on a dime pass to wide receiver Malik Heath.
Down by one point, DeVito had just over a minute to answer back and steal the game away yet again from Green Bay. The Giants quarterback finds his man, wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, for a clutch 32-yard gain; priming the Giants for a game-winning field goal. After missing a field goal earlier in the game, veteran kicker Randy Bullock has a chance to seal the game. He splits the uprights and the Giants win the game 24-22.
