The New York Giants upset the Minnesota Vikings with a score of 31-24 in the NFC Wild Card game, to advance to the NFC Divisional Round for the first time since they won the Super Bowl in 2011.
In his first-ever playoff game, Daniel Jones was 24-of-35 passing for 301 yards and two TDs, plus he added 78 yards on 17 carries. Running back Saquon Barkley was equally impressive in his postseason debut, turning 14 touches into 109 yards and two scores of his own.
Next up, the Giants will travel to face the No. 1 seed and division rival Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional round next weekend.
