Well, well, well. An upset is brewing in the Meadowlands.
The Giants outplayed the Buccaneers in the first half of Monday Night Football, and Daniel Jones was the better quarterback.
The Giants lead 14-6 at intermission.
Tom Brady was a little off in the first 30 minutes, completing 16 of 24 passes for 132 yards. He found some rhythm with a two-minute drive at the end of the half that led to a 40-yard Ryan Succop field goal with seven seconds left.
Succop began the scoring with a 37-yard field goal.
Jones, though, has thrown a touchdown and led the Giants on a 77-yard touchdown drive. The Giants’ first touchdown — a 7-yard Jones pass to a sliding Dion Lewis — followed a Ronald Jones fumble. Blake Martinez forced the fumble, and Darnay Holmes recovered at the Tampa Bay 12.
Wayne Gallman scored the Giants’ second touchdown on a 2-yard run.
Daniel Jones went 11-of-17 for 100 yards and one touchdown in the first half.
The Giants had 170 yards, three more than the Bucs.
