Later, Winston led New York down the field, finding Theo Johnson for a 14-yard completion on third-and-7. However, a holding penalty against Andrew Thomas put the Giants in a tough spot at third-and-12.

Key Plays and Missed Opportunities

Winston scored on a sneak, giving the Giants a brief lead of 20-19 with just over seven minutes left in the game.

The Packers quickly retaliated, starting their drive from the 35-yard line after a touchback. Jordan Love connected with Wilson for a nine-yard pass, followed by a four-yard gain. In a critical moment on third-and-10, Love executed a deep pass to Savion Williams, who made a spectacular 32-yard catch at the New York 20.

Decisive Touchdown

Giants’ Final Drive

In response, Winston attempted to rally the Giants. He connected with Johnson for 11 yards on third-and-5, and Tracy followed with a 17-yard run to the Green Bay 32. However, Keisean Nixon disrupted a pass intended for Robinson, leading to a critical third-and-6 situation.

In the game’s climax, safety Evan Williams intercepted Winston’s pass in the end zone with just 36 seconds left, sealing the Packers’ victory. The Giants used their timeouts strategically, but a 61-yard punt from Green Bay’s Whelan kept them on the defensive.
