Giants answer Vikings score with pair of touchdowns

The New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings had to wait to kick off because of the length of the Miami Dolphins-Buffalo Bills game on Sunday.

Once the NFC Wild Card game got underway the offenses were on display.

The Vikings scored on their opening drive as Kirk Cousins sneaked it over the goal line.

That didn’t deter Big Blue, which responded with not one but two touchdowns.

The first came on a 28-yard run by Saquon Barkley that concluded a 75-yard drive.

The Giants got the ball back and went 81 yards in 4 plays before Isaiah Hodgins caught a 14-yard TD pass from Daniel Jones.

Jones was 5-of-5 for 100 yards and Barkley had a pair of carries for 44 yards n the first quarter.
