4 plays that helped the Giants beat GB and keep postseason dreams alive

Doubt them all you want, but the NY Giants are officially one game back of the No. 7 seed in the NFC. A month ago, there was no way we'd even think about talking about the postseason for this team, but after the thrilling 24-22 victory over the Packers, it's time to start believing.

More specifically, it's time to start believing in Tommy DeVito and this offense, as it's no longer a cute story - this kid can ball. In the win over the Packers, Tommy Cutlets stepped his game up with some memorable plays. He wasn't the only one. Here's our look at the game-changing moments from MNF:

4. Wan'Dale Robinson catch on a heart-stopping flea flicker

We're not going to lie to you, when DeVito first let this ball go, we were worried SICK it was going to be intercepted. The Giants went for a flea flicker here and DeVito had the ball up in the air for what felt like an eternity. It looked like the Packers were going to come down with an interception, but then Wan'Dale Robinson leaped in from out of nowhere to post the amazing reception.

Boom! Robinson is one of the smallest wideouts in the league, but that didn't matter on this catch. You can't measure the size of this kid's heart. Robinson has been dealing with so much injury adversity early on in his career, but goodness, he came up huge for the Giants. At the time, NY was clinging to a one-point lead.

However, the Robinson grab helped the Giants get deep into Green Bay territory and DeVito was able to find Isaiah Hodgins in the end zone to increase the lead to 21-13 (we'll have more on that Hodgins grab later). Then on the final drive, Robinson had an equally as big reception, gaining 32 yards, which put NY in prime position to kick a game-winning field goal, which they did.

3. Azeez Ojulari and Dexter Lawrence combine for a monster sack

This one was massive actually for mutliple reasons. The Packers had the ball in the Giants red zone, looking like they were going to potentially score a touchdown, with the chance to go for two and tie things up. However, Jordan Love wasn't able to find an open man on third down and Azeez Ojulari + Dexter Lawrence got home.

It was third down from the 17 yard line. However, after the sack, the Packers were pushed back to the 28 yard line and then Anders Carlson came out for a 45-year field goal. Carlson missed the FG and the Giants stayed up eight points. Without that sack, it would have been a much easier attempt for Carlson and he could have made things 21-16. Keep in mind that NY only won by two too.

Ojulari and Lawrence were able to fly into the backfield and bring Love down for a huge loss. Lawrence missed the Week 12 game with a hamstring injury, but goodness, it was amazing to have him back on the field. Ojulari has missed plenty of action due to an injury too, so you know he must have felt amazing to make this primetime play as well.

2. Incredbile Isaiah Hodgins touchdown grab

This was an epic throw-and-catch from DeVito to Hodgins. NY was up 14-13 late in the third quarter and everything appeared to be closed up for the Giants offense. However, DeVito was able to get out of the pocket, scan the field and deliver with a perfect throw in the corner of the end zone for Hodgins to reel in. It was an incredible grab for him.

When was the last time we saw a Giants QB make a throw like this? DeVito was on the money and Hodgins was somehow able to get both feet down. As soon as the touchdown was confirmed, people at MetLife absolutely lost it and rightfully so. After this play, it really felt like the Giants were well on their way to the shocking win.

Hodgins has had a rough season, as he hasn't matched the success he had in 2022. However, it feels like whenever Coach Dabes needs him to step up and come down with a fantastic reception, he's there to answer the call. This happened on Monday night against the Packers. Seriously, this will be looked at as one of the best scores of the NY campaign.

1. Everything about the final drive, including the Randy Bullock field goal

Okay, we're cheating here a bit and going to mention several moments from the final drive instead of focusing on just one play. We really hope you don't mind. First off, DeVito was fabulous with the game on the line, going 4-for-4 for 53 yards, highlighted by the 32-yard connection to Robinson. Too much to say it was Eli Manning-esque?

DeVito didn't run away from the pressure at all and he lifted the guys around him to keep on going. Thanks to the 53 yards through the air, plus some extra yardage via Saquon Barkley runs, NY put Randy Bullock in a position to drill a 37-yarder to win it. Bullock, with ice in his veins, nailed it with a ton of confidence.

Keep in mind that Bullock missed a 48-yarder in the first half. However, he didn't disappoint with the chance to help NY capture win No. 5 on the season. With the victory, Giants fans can start dreaming again about making the playoffs. A huge road contest against the Saints is on the way on Sunday. If they post yet another upset win, it might be time to give DeVito the keys to the city.
