Giants win 32-31. Daniel Jones, Mike Evans, and Shaq Barrett play lights out. Saquon is out for 4-8 weeks win a high ankle sprain.

Daniel Jones looked fast. It is weird seeing a Giants QB run well. Jones is the first Giants QB ever with 2 rushing and 2 passing TDs in the same game. The offense looked great as a result, until Saquon got hurt.. Jones led the Giants on an 18 point comeback, the largest since 1970 for the Giants. New York’s defense is awful. Jones only had one bad pass on the day, which is impressive given how much he was pressured. Evan Engram made some amazing plays and was catching everything in sight. Shepard looked great with an actual QB. It will be interesting to see where Golden Tate slides into this offense. Can he play running-back?
Buccaneers:
- Jameis Winston: 23/37, 380 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT + 4 carries, 3 yards
- Peyton Barber: 13 carries, 48 yards + 2 targets, 2 receptions, 7 yards
- Ronald Jones: 14 carries, 80 yards + 1 target, 1 reception, 41 yards
- Dare Ogunbowale: 3 targets, 3 receptions, 23 yards
- Mike Evans: 15 targets, 8 receptions, 190 yards, 3 TDs
- Breshad Perriman: 2 targets, 1 reception, 6 yards
- O.J. Howard: 4 targets, 3 receptions, 66 yards
- Cameron Brate: 3 targets, 2 receptions, 7 yards
- Chris Godwin: 4 targets, 3 receptions, 40 yards
Shaquil Barrett has more sacks this season, 8, than 19 NFL teams. Todd Bowles has the Tampa defense playing well. Winston looked good for his standards. Evans went off. Winson-Evans now have the most Buccaneers touchdowns as a duo with 26. Howard doesn’t seem to be a focal point of the offense anymore. The running-backs are average. Godwin should have bigger games. The Bucs needed this win (didn’t get it) as they play the Rams next..
