Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 12-7 win over the Titans on Sunday:
Hero
Jevón Holland’s third interception in as many games sent the Giants to their second victory in three weeks. The safety picked off Titans quarterback Cam Ward in the end zone with 17 seconds left as Tennessee drove for the potential game-winning score.

Titans coach Robert Saleh’s decision to attempt a 59-yard field goal in rainy and windy conditions late in the second quarter helped the Giants add three points before halftime — three points that loomed large in the end. Tennessee could’ve played for a field goal in the final seconds rather than needing a touchdown. With 46 seconds left, Joey Slye missed the long try, and the Giants drove to set up a 39-yard Dominic Zvada field goal that made it 9-0 at the time.

Jordan Stout averaged 50.5 yards on six punts, including three inside the Titans 20-yard line. He also had a booming 74-yarder. He was a big part of the Giants winning the field-position game on a wet day at MetLife Stadium.
Key stat
28:42: Time it took for the Titans to pick up their initial first down of the game. They nearly became the first team in eight years to fail to pick up a first down in the first half.
Quote
“Jameis did what was required in this game. The first thing you have to do is what’s necessary, what’s required. After that, then you can do what’s possible. Then maybe the impossible becomes possible.”
