1. Daniel Jones with a monster play on 4th down

With two minutes on the clock, it all came down to this. The Giants were facing 4th-and-1 in Tennessee territory and just about everyone expected Daboll to put the ball in the hands of Barkley. Instead, the Giants went in a different direction.

Daboll, who previously blasted Jones for an awful interception, decided it was time for Danny Dimes to slead the show. Indeed, Jones faked a handoff and then sprinted his way for a short gain to pick up the first down. Massive.

Soon after that, Jones was able to find Myarick in the end zone to make things 20-19. Then, as you all know by now, the shovel pass to Barkley ended up winning it for the Giants. That game-winning play doesn’t happen unless Jones was able to convert on 4th down.

Jones may not be a perfect QB, but goodness, he was able to play huge for the Giants late with the contest on the line.
