Giants beat Vikings 31-24 in NFC Wild Card game
Daniel Jones passed for 301 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 78 yards in his first career playoff game for the New York Giants, a 31-24 victory over Minnesota in the wild-card round that gave the Vikings their first loss in 12 one-score games this season.
"We did what we wanted to do, come out with a win," Barkley said. "Celebrate on the way back, watch film, learn from it and get ready for Philly."Cousins went 31 for 39 for 273 yards and two scores and a rushing touchdown to cap the game's opening possession, the too-short throw to Hockenson his one glaring mistake. Justin Jefferson, the NFL's leading receiver, had only one catch after halftime and finished with 47 yards.
Jones converted a penalty-free fourth-and-1 sneak on the next drive for the Giants. Barkley - who had 109 total yards on only 14 touches - chugged into the end zone for the lead with 7:47 to go. His injured right tackle Brian O'Neill led the crowd in the pregame "Skol" chant, helping crank up the decibel level. The fans went wild in the first quarter when franchise leading rusher Adrian Peterson was shown on the videoboard for an interview.
