The New York Giants have struggled in primetime for the better part of the decade and despite a solid effort, that curse continued on Monday night.
The Giants and Dallas Cowboys played it tight for four full quarters but in the end, it was Cooper Rush & Co. who came out on top. A late fourth quarter touchdown pass put his team up and they wouldn’t look back.
There are no moral victories for Brian Daboll’s crew, but they once again weathered an early storm and nearly came away with the win — almost entirely because of a gutsy performance courtesy of quarterback Daniel Jones.
With the loss, which was highlighted by a seemingly endless storm of penalties, the Giants fall to 2-1 on the season.
