The New York Giants snapped a franchise-worst 10-game losing streak with a 45-33 win over the Indianapolis Colts, thanks to a strong performance from quarterback Drew Lock. Lock threw a career-high four touchdown passes and added a rushing score, finishing with 309 yards and a 155.3 passer rating. The quarterback’s performance made him the third player in Giants history to throw four or more touchdown passes and one or more rushing touchdowns in a game, joining Eli Manning and Charlie Conerly.
Head coach Brian Daboll praised Lock’s performance, saying that it’s essential for the offense to play well and for the quarterback to make good decisions. Daboll also credited the team’s ability to win the turnover ratio and make critical plays at key times. The Giants’ victory was a result of good quarterback play, a strong third-down conversion rate, and effective play in the red zone.
