HOW A 2-POINT CONVERSION WON THE OPENER FOR GIANTS
By Lewis Gould
Daniel Jones was under pressure all day, taking five sacks, and turning the ball over via fumble and interception.
But Jones was accurate (17 of 21 passing for 188 yards and two touchdowns) when not having to pick grass out of his face mask and Saquon Barkley looked as explosive as he has in years, finishing with 164 yards on 18 carries thanks in part to some creative gap scheme runs out from Coach Brian Daboll and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka.
With about a minute to go, Daboll’s gutsy two-point conversion call was the difference in a 21-20 win.
