On Sunday, the New York Giants didn’t leave MetLife Stadium with a loss. Instead, they left with a victory. The losing streak ended at nine, as the Giants won 36-20 against the Miami Dolphins.

For the first time since Week 4 against the Washington Redskins, the Giants got a victory. Since late September, the Giants were in the midst of some awful football and a lot of losing.

But for at least one Sunday, there was no talk of a losing streak, no talk of coaches and a general manager getting fired. Instead, it was all about a victory. A much-needed victory — one that many will remember for a long time because of everything that surrounded it.

Whose stock was up and down after the Giants victory on Sunday against the Dolphins?

Stock up: Eli Manning

Nobody cares that Manning threw three picks in this game. Nobody.

What people will care about were the two touchdown passes, the victory and what came with about a minute to go when he left the game to one of the loudest ovations in MetLife Stadium history.

Then leaving the field as the triumphant hero and everyone chanting his name. Whether he plays again in the final two games remains to be seen.

Today, it was all about Eli Manning and how he left as the historic hero for the Giants who is all but Hall of Fame bound.

Stock down: Nate Solder

If it didn’t cost the Giants $13 million in a dead cap hit to release Solder, it would make so much sense to cut him.

Solder is still struggling and it shows. Maybe he needs to move to right tackle after the season, and who knows if he is even up for that move.

Granted, he’s dealing with so much off the field and as a human being, he’s tougher than anyone could ever imagine. But the struggles are still there, and Solder still needs to put forth a professional effort as the left tackle.
