Part 8/10:
The Giants employed a brutal six-minute offensive drive to close out the game, run predominantly by Saquon Barkley and AJ Dillon. Their relentless running game kept the clock ticking, demoralizing the Eagles’ defense. The smart clock management and big plays from Scatterabee—who demonstrated grit and physicality—resulted in a final score of 34-17.
Debates and Reflections
Throughout the game, officiating controversies persisted, especially concerning the "tush push" play. Some argued it unfairly favored the offense, while others questioned the consistency of calls around the neutral zone. Fans and analysts noted that the referees appeared inconsistent with how they reviewed and flagged these plays—particularly when the defense tried to blink or react quickly.
