The New York Giants weren’t expected to win a Week 7 game at MetLife Stadium against the Carolina Panthers. None of the Giants Wire staff picked the Giants — and we were all glad to be wrong.
The Giants ended their two-game losing streak by defeating the returning Sam Darnold and the Panthers, 25-3, to improve to 2-5.
After a disastrous performance a week ago against the Los Angeles Rams, Daniel Jones got back on track and took control of his football team.
Jones went 23-of-33 with 203 yards, throwing one touchdown pass, which went to Dante Pettis.

Jones also showed off more of his athletic ability, adding six carries for 30 yards and had one amazing catch for 16 yards.

Odell Beckham Jr. who?
Jones will be put to the test on national television next Monday night when he faces off against the AFC Champion Kansas City Chiefs.
They will see their former Super Bowl-winning defensive coordinator and interim head coach in Steve Spagnuolo.
