The New York Giants won a football game for the first time since September 29 and Giant fans finally got to experience that winning feeling again. But that’s not all that happened.

Here are three Week 15 takeaways.

The win had it’s up and it’s downs

By winning, the Giants positioned themselves to fall in the draft order, but not without a few things needing to happen first. A win over Washington next week will likely drop them further down the order than just No. 3. A win in Washington will also clinch third place in the NFC East and keep them from finishing last for the third consecutive season.

The victory stopped a nine-game losing streak that will likely cost coaches — and possibly the general manager — their jobs. The win doesn’t erase the last two and half month’s misery. This team still needs to make some wholesale changes.

On the positive side, the win drew Eli Manning’s career record as a starter to 117-117. That will be one less mark against him for Hall of Fame voters to ponder.
