rest - interesting - http://www.espn.com/blog/new-york-gi...of-the-broncosDENVER -- Coach Ben McAdoo was right. Nobody gave his New York Giants a chance on Sunday night.
The Giants were 13.5-point underdogs to the Denver Broncos. They opened the week as nine-point underdogs and, as player after player was ruled out by injury, the doubt only increased. There was no way they were going into Denver for a prime-time game without their top three wide receivers and seven starters and leave with a victory.
Wrong. That’s why they play the games. The Giants stunned the Broncos 23-10 for their first victory of the season.
“Even my friends had no belief that we would get this done,” said tight end Evan Engram, who accounted for 82 of the Giants’ 128 receiving yards.
But they won. The Giants (1-5) are no longer in the same winless category as the San Francisco 49ers and Cleveland Browns.
How they did it ...
