New York Giants secured their second consecutive victory on Sunday, defeating the Arizona Cardinals with a final score of 36-24 at MetLife Stadium. This win improved New York's record to 3-1, marking the second consecutive game the Giants stopped the opposing team from scoring on the goal line, following a similar performance in the previous week against the Tennessee Titans.
Corner Deonte Banks played a pivotal role in the Giants' victory, as he intercepted Arizona quarterback Jacoby Brissett in the final moments of the game, resulting in a 98-yard touchdown. Despite an early 14-3 deficit, the Giants managed to rally and secure a 19-17 halftime lead. However, Winston's early interception should have given the Giants a 22-14 halftime advantage.
The Giants defense was surprisingly effective, blitzing Brissett 53.8% of the time and pressuring him on 38.5% of his throws.
