BREAKING: Daniel Jones threw for 301 yards and two TDs and ran 15 times for 79 yards in his first career playoff game for the NY Giants, a 31-24 win over Minnesota in the wild-card round that gave the Vikes their first loss in 12 one-score games this year.
The Vikings stayed on brand by facing 10-point deficits late in the second quarter and again early in the third quarter.
Jones converted a penalty-free fourth-and-1 sneak on the next drive for the Giants. Barkley — who had 109 total yards on only 14 touches — chugged into the end zone for the lead with 7:47 to go.The Giants and Vikings were among seven teams in the playoffs that missed out last season, a six-year absence for the Giants that ended with their 9-7-1 finish under Daboll to grab a wild-card spot.
The Giants, having played here just three weeks ago, were clearly unfazed by the noise. They cruised for 166 yards on their first nine plays for touchdowns on their first two drives, then gained 90 yards in a whopping 20 plays for a field goal and a 17-7 lead.
