The New York Giants claimed their first win of the season Sunday, taking down the Houston Texans, 30-17, in their best full-game performance to date.
The offense was chugging along, moving the ball downfield methodically on most drives. It produced more points (30) than it did in any game in 2013 other than the season-opener versus Dallas, in which they put up 31. Could it be a sign of good things around the corner for Ben McAdoo's recently implanted offensive scheme?
The defense was aggressive, totally dismantling the Texans' offensive game plan. The defensive line was as disruptive as ever, forcing Houston's Ryan Fitzpatrick to make most plays on the move from persistent pressure.
The Giants took advantage of more of the game's unpredictable bounces, winning the turnover battle and making the plays that ended up providing the margin for victory.
