MINNEAPOLIS -- Daniel Jones passed for 301 yards and 2 touchdowns and ran 15 times for 79 yards in his first career playoff game for the New York Giants, a 31-24 victory over Minnesota in the wild-card round that gave the Vikings their first loss in 12 one-score games this season.
Saquon Barkley rushed for 2 scores, including the tiebreaker midway through the fourth quarter. The Giants' defense finished off the franchise's first playoff win since the Super Bowl 11 years ago by swarming tight end T.J. Hockenson after a 3-yard catch on a pass from Kirk Cousins at midfield on fourth-and-8, and the Vikings turned the ball over on downs with 1:44 to go and no timeouts left.
Isaiah Hodgins and Daniel Bellinger had touchdown receptions for the Giants, who advanced to play No. 1 seed and division rival Philadelphia in the divisional round next weekend. Cousins went 31 for 39 for 273 yards and 2 scores, plus a rushing touchdown to cap the game's opening possession, the too-short throw to Hockenson at the end his only mistake. Justin Jefferson, the NFL's leading receiver, had only one catch after halftime and finished with 47 yards.

Giants put it all on QB Daniel Jones, and he shined in playoff win over VikingsWhen the New York Giants drafted Daniel Jones sixth overall, it was ridiculed. When the Giants didn't pick up the fifth-year option on his rookie deal, that seemed to cement him as a bust. By the end of his third season, the only hope was that new coach Brian Daboll could completely turn him around. It's not like the Giants gave him a lot of talent to throw to.
