Quarterback Daniel Jones played a pivotal role in the victory, demonstrating solid performance throughout the game. Despite some issues with ball security, including a fumble by running back Devin Singletary, the Giants managed to maintain control and secure the win. The defense, led by Dexter Lawrence, was particularly effective, with nine different players contributing to the sack total, marking a significant achievement in team defense.
