The New York Giants faced the Los Angeles Rams in an intense NFL game. The Rams took an early lead, but the Giants tied the game with a 24-yard rushing touchdown by Wan'Dale Robinson. Matthew Stafford's pass was intercepted by Dane Belton, leading to a Giants touchdown. The Rams managed to maintain a narrow lead, and despite the Giants' efforts, the Rams won 26-25. Tyrod Taylor's impressive performance included an 80-yard touchdown pass to Darius Slayton, but a missed field goal by Mason Crosby cost the Giants the game.
Tyrod Taylor's spatial awareness & how he manipulates space within pocket is fun to watch. Most QBs who struggle w/ pocket manipulation will escape to their right here & cut off half the field. This side shuffle by TT allows him to find space & a launching point for 🔥🔥 #Giants https://t.co/AIaqHLl3DJ
Great EX of something we discuss a lot with the #Giants QB situation: Post-snap processing. 3rd&6: Tyrod Taylor processes the depth at which the safety to Hyatt's side is playing. When the S steps to LOS, Taylor has made his mind up and gets the ball out FAST. Should've been a… https://t.co/9YOnwhJMKu
Great EX of post-snap processing when the bullets are flying. Tyrod Taylor's eyes go with the over & he sees the safety carrying Darren Waller's deep over confirming to TT that he can come back to Slayton's vert & beat the safety to the spot. A LOT of trust in his arm. #Giants https://t.co/vnS0a5Jcly
Aaron Donald was a split second away from engulfing Tyrod Taylor on his explosive 80-yard TD throw. Taylor manipulated the pocket, found a new launch point, and ripped one that traveled 62 yards in the air, landed in stride with Slayton & beat the safety to the spot. #Giants https://t.co/U8lt0s8Zd1

WOW GIANTS MISS THE KICK AND THE RAMS ARE GONNA HOLD ON FOR THE WIN https://t.co/5K1UHmVK7A
Mason Crosby misses a game-winning kick for the Giants. The #Bears are officially eliminated from the playoffs.
Mason Crosby’s 54yd FG attempt is just short, and the Rams will win this one 26-25. What a game.
Mason Crosby is on to attempt a 54-yard field goal for the Giants.

Tyrod goes for 31 yards and Giants on Rams 34
CHAOS IN THE MEADOWLANDS 😱 A 94-yard punt return TD for the Giants moves New York within one point of tying the Rams, but the two-point conversion comes up short. 🎥 @Giants https://t.co/1rO8DbAw7o
Somehow, after a 94-yard punt return TD and then a penalty on special teams that gifted the Giants a 2-pt attempt, the Rams' lead holds by a point. https://t.co/yZMFRTf87Q
Taylor rolls right and throws pass behind Barkley who doesn't bring it in. Two-point attempt fails. Rams 26 Giants 25
Giants were lined up to go for the PAT after Gunner's 94-yard punt return for touchdown. Rams hit with encroachment penalty, so Daboll sends offense back on the field to go for 2.
Another big play for Giants as Tyrod Taylor squirts out of the pocket and scrambles for a long gain, holding penalty on John Michael Schmitz brings it back.
Rams/Giants OVER 43.5 Points ✅ @HousefromDC 🎯 https://t.co/AvH4b10Vwt https://t.co/JBcMvHbzI4
Giants defense gets the stop as Stafford misfires to Robinson at the sticks. Rams will punt.
Giants were set up on fourth and 1. Underneath route to Hyatt, trying to get him on the move and in space, but throw behind him, allowed Rams DB Witherspoon to press and force Hyatt well short of the sticks. Turnover on downs.
Deep connection for Tyrod with Jalin Hyatt, but Daniel Bellinger holding penalty brings this one back. Costly penalty, but completion probably doesn't happen if Bellinger didn't hold. Bad play all around. Rough day for him.
Another big play, as Tyrod Taylor hits Jalin Hyatt with a 47 yard pass, but negated by a Daniel Bellinger holding penalty
Sixth penalty of the season, second of the game, against TE Daniel Bellinger. This one a killer. Takes away a huge play from Jalin Hyatt.
Ugh. Daniel Bellinger gets nailed for holding. I believe that's his second penalty today. And that wipes out a deep completion to Hyatt.
Tyrod hits Hyatt with a bomb but holding on Bellinger negates the huge play.
Kyren Williams rushes for a 28yd TD but another missed PAT for the Rams has LA up 26-19 at MetLife
Lucas Havrisik just missed his PAT after Kyren Williams' 3rd TD, so keeps the door open for Giants. Rams up 26-19 with 12:03 left.
#Giants pull within 1 point of the Rams. The difference right now is a missed Mason Crosby PAT. Ugh...
The 80-yard touchdown pass from Tyrod Taylor to Darius Slayton traveled 55 air yards, per @ESPNStatsInfo. That is the most air yards on any touchdown pass this season. #Giants
The keys here: 1. QB stays in the pocket despite it getting muddy. Doesn't break right. 2. The QB drives the football on a line about 62* yards IN THE AIR. 3. The WR doesn't have to slow down, break stride, adjust to opposite shoulder Tyrod Taylor is an explosive thrower #Giants https://t.co/R3QkBDX01x
The end zone angle on this one is sweet too. LOVE how Tyrod Taylor trusts Andrew Thomas to win his rep and doesn't panic escape the pocket. It was a 20-10 game and the #Giants were backed up inside their own 20 before this. Plays like this completely flip the momentum of games. https://t.co/SnJgHqlllP

Great awareness and tracking of that ball by Darius Slayton. Unbelievable throw by Tyrod, but Slayton made that happen. Slowed down enough to recognize where the ball was in the air, the Rams' DB did not, and Slayton accelerated enough to make the catch and get to the EZ.
Tyrod to Slayton. Bomb for the score. 80 yards.
That was a good ball from Tyrod on third down and an even better catch by Darren Waller to move the chains.
Adoree Jackson having another tough game. His missed tackled turns into an 80-yard Puka Nakua gain. Next play TD. Rams 20, Giants 10
Nacua with an 80-yard catch and run after spinning away from Adoree' Jackson. Dane Belton saved the TD with great hustle, but only prolonged it for a play. Kyren Williams in for his 2nd TD of the game. Missed PAT, though. Rams 20, Giants 10.

Rams making it tough on themselves. Fuller intercepts pass but Demarcus Robinson gives it back to Giants with fumble.
Rams give it right back when Demarcus Robinson fumbles the ball after the catch.
Nice scheme by McVay as Stafford easily hits Cooper Kupp on a five-yard TD. Rams turn a botched fourth-down attempt into seven points. Rams 14 Giants 7
Belton picks off Stafford - Stafford was just high .. maybe ball slipped #LARvsNYG #RamsHouse #NYGiants #RamsatGiants https://t.co/VPIitlZ25u

#Giants S Dane Belton picks off Matthew Stafford, that's Stafford's first INT since Nov. 26
Stafford's pass intended for Nacua is intercepted by Dane Belton Giants ball.
Stafford completely overthrows his receiver streaking over the middle (Nacua) and goes right to Dane Belton, credited with an INT.
Awesome possesion for the #Giants there Tyrod Taylor 6 for 6 for 56 yards. Pocket manipulation. The 3rd&6 he did an excellent job keeping his eyes downfield & stepping up through & around pocket. Wan'Dale finishes it off w/ Andrew Thomas downfield block playing through injury.

Great blocks by Andrew Thomas and John Michael Schmitz on that Wan'Dale Robinson rushing TD. TD possible because Tyrod Taylor made tough third-and-long throw to Jalin Hyatt under pressure. Giants 7, Rams 7
Wan'Dale rushes for 24 on the end around to the house with Andrew Thomas and Schmitz throwing key blocks. Giants and Rams tied up at 7.
Wan'Dale Robinson rushes for a 24yd TD and the Giants tie this one up at 7 early in the 2nd Q
Tremendous play by Tyrod on third-and-6 to keep that drive alive and then Wan'Dale Robinson like a bolt of lightning on the end around for a 24-yard TD. Saquon in the blue tent during the end of that drive.
Great play call, Wan'Dale Robinson runs for a 24-yard touchdown. Found an extra gear through the Rams' second and third levels of defense. Mason Crosby nails the PAT. Giants 7, Rams 7
Meanwhile in East Rutherford ... End of 1: Rams 7, Giants 0 QB Tyrod Taylor: 4 of 5, 26 yards RB Saquon Barkley: 2 carries, 9 yards LA QB Matthew Stafford: 10 of 12, 93 yards LA RB Kyren Williams: 7 carries, 33 yards, 1 TD
Daniel Bellinger called for holding. His fifth penalty this season. Too many. Two all of last year as a rookie.
And the Rams are on the board. TD Kyren Williams with the 4-yard score.
Rams go for it on 4th and 3, Stafford connects with Puka Nacua and once again Brian Daboll throws the red challenge flag, once again the ruling of a catch is overturned. Two successful challenges in less than a minute for the Giants.
