Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 45-33 win over the Colts on Sunday:
Hero
Drew Lock, who had one touchdown pᴀss in his first three starts, threw four touchdown pᴀsses (three in the first half) and ran for another score in the best pᴀssing day that a Giants quarterback has had since December 2019.
Zero
So what if Joe Flacco threw for 330 yards and two touchdowns?
He threw two interceptions to a defense that had three interceptions all year.
Unsung hero
Dru Phillips sealed the win with a fourth-quarter interception — his first since high school after the rookie third-round pick went interception-less through 55 career games at Kentucky.
Key stat
155: Games since the Giants scored more than 45 points (a 52-49 loss to the Saints on Nov. 1, 2015).
Quote of the day
“That’s how the offense needs to perform. That’s how the quarterback needs to perform.”
— Brian Daboll on the breakout performance by the NFL’s lowest scoring offense.
