Heroes, zeros from Giants' win over Eagles: Tyrod Taylor shows resilience

Heroes, zeros and full blitz from the Giants’ 27-10 victory against the Eagles on Sunday afternoon.

Hero

Tyrod Taylor completed 23 of 32 passes for 297 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He left the game with two different injuries but returned both times.

Zero

Jalen Hurts completed 7 of 16 passes with an interception and suffered a finger injury that puts his status for next week’s playoff game against the Bucs in doubt.

Unsung hero

Xavier McKinney had two highlight-reel interceptions on back-to-back defensive snaps when the Giants were leading 24-0, making it clear that this big lead over the Eagles wouldn’t be blown like so many have.

Key stat

11: Seasons since the Giants led the Eagles by at least 17 points before jumping out to a 17-0 lead Sunday.

Quote

“If it is, it was a fun six years. Made a lot of great memories.”
