GIANTS 21VIKINGS 3
The most interesting part of Monday's Giants/Vikings had more to do with the collapsing Metrodome roof, and Brett Favre's iron man streak of 297 straight starts coming to an end than the football game itself.
The Giants won, mostly because the Vikings are atrocious.
Eli Manning wasn't great for Big Blue throwing two first quarter interceptions, and really never got into a grove all night. It was up to the running game of Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw to lead the G-Men to victory.
Jacobs led the team with 116 yards and a touchdown, including a 73 yard run in the second quarter to set up the Giants first touchdown.
The Giants ate up the awful Tavaris Jackson, sacking him four times and allowing him to complete only 50 percent of his passes for 118 yards.
The Giants get ready for a huge showdown next weekend against the Philadelphia Eagles (9-4) at New Meadowlands Stadium. The winner will win the NFC East.
