4 key plays that helped the NY Giants improve to 5-1
1. Kayvon Thibodeaux’s first NFL sack seals the victory!
Entering the Week 6 matchup with the Ravens, rookie pass-rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux was yet to record a sack in his career. How in the world was this possible?
This was still hanging over Thibodeaux’s head late into Week 6. With 1:35 left in the game, though, Thibodeaux crushed the hearts of Ravens fans around the world, taking down Jackson and forcing the ball out of his hands to essentially win the game for the G-Men.

The only thing that might be better than the play itself, was Thibodeaux’s impersonation of Giants legend Victor Cruz’s legendary salsa dance. We all knew it was only a matter of time before he finally got his first sack. The combination of speed, agility, and strength Thibodeaux possesses is pretty rare to have in an edge-rusher.
Giants fans have to be impressed with what they have seen out of the rookie pass-rusher. With the game on the line, No. 5 delivered in spectacular fashion, and Leonard Williams was there to pounce on the ball. All in all, the Giants defense played a big role in helping the team record the upset victory. Thibodeaux has to feel great about the way he played too.
