The New York Giants held the lead at halftime Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings in an NFC Wild-Card matchup.
The Giants won the toss and deferred, preferring to get the ball to open the second half.
The strategy worked.
A 17-14 lead became 24-14 when Daniel Jones directed a 6-play, 75-yard drive.
Jones found multiple receivers on the march as he had been all game.
The final throw was good for 9 yards and went to tight end Daniel Bellenger.
Graham Gano’s PAT gave the Giants 10-point lead.
It didn’t last long as the Vikings took the kickoff and also drove 75 yards with Kirk Cousins hitting Irv Smith Jr. with a 3-yard TD pass.
