Saints Edge Giants 14-11 in Close Game

The New York Giants suffered their eighth consecutive loss, falling 14-11 to the New Orleans Saints at MetLife Stadium. A last-second blocked field goal attempt by Graham Gano sealed the Giants' fate, exacerbating their already dismal season record of 2-11 and keeping hopes alive for a top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Drew Lock, who struggled early, completed 21 of 49 passes for 227 yards, leading a late comeback attempt that ultimately fell short. The Giants' offense has been criticized for its ineptitude, further highlighted by a false start penalty that derailed a crucial drive late in the game. Fans expressed their frustration through aerial banners and paper bags, reminiscent of past protests against the team's management. The defeat raises questions about the futures of head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen after a disappointing season.
