New York Giants: Janoris Jenkins Comes Up Big With Pick Six

The talk before the game was how the Giants’ secondary would fare without DRC, who was suspended by McAdoo for disciplinary reasons.

The New York Giants and the Denver Broncos will clash for NFL Sunday Night Football in Week 6 in the NFL 2017 regular season.

Last season Jenkins shut down opposing wide receivers nearly every week, but he failed to collect a pick-six. “It’s any given Sunday”. What was supposed to be a three-hour, nationally televised showcase in all that is wrong with the Giants became an upset that shined a bit of light on this dark Giants season. The Broncos enter off a bye week at 3-1 – their lone blemish coming at the hands of the Bills in Buffalo. In the first quarter alone they allowed the Giants to take their first possession 13 plays and 69 yards for a field goal.

“He’s one of the best and I think it’s exciting to be able to play against him”. It does not matter; the only team we’re [worried about] is the Broncos.

“Sometimes it just ain’t your day”, defensive end Derek Wolfe said, adding, “We didn’t overlook this team”.

If the head coach with nothing but offensive experience on his resume can’t get the team functioning with all of his star players on the field – and his deputy with almost none of those players can – there’s going to be some simple questions asked that will be hard for McAdoo to answer. Ellison has six receptions for 50 yards for the Giants, who have underutilized him in the passing game.

“We knew we weren’t going to throw it 40 times”, he said.

Three plays later, Manning rolled right and hit Engram, who ran a sideline rub route to the pylon that beat safety Justin Simmons for a touchdown and a 10-0 Giants lead.

Struggling Broncos quarterback Trevor Siemian left late in the second quarter with a left shoulder injury. So Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders should find some seams to work in down the field. The Giants and Eli Manning will try to awaken from their nightmare of a season when they travel to Colorado to face Von Miller and the Denver Broncos at 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC (live stream).

The Giants were 13.5-point underdogs to the Denver Broncos. Not only did Jenkins have an interception return for a touchdown, but he also forced a key fumble on a fourth-down conversion and recorded five tackles. “I thought the intensity was fine”.

Both teams had subsequent field-goal attempts in the third quarter blocked.

McManus has been anything but money since signing an $11.25 million extension last month. “But sitting here right now he’s our guy”. Ross Cockrell broke up a pass to Jordan Taylor, then made a solid tackle of Bennie Fowler at the 1 after a 4-yard catch. Evan Engram was Eli Manning’s main target all night long, and led the team in receiving yards while scoring a touchdown. Darkwa had a career high 117 yards.

“You have to be desperate for a win or it’s just not going to happen”.

NY returns home to host the Seattle Seahawks before a bye week.
