EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (Interstat) — Jameis Winston threw three touchdown passes and the N.Y. Giants used a late defensive score to defeat the Arizona Cardinals 36-24 on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. The Giants improved to 3-1, while the Cardinals fell to 1-3. Attendance was 80,893 at the home of the Giants. The game turned late in the fourth quarter, when Deonte Banks intercepted Jacoby Brissett and returned the ball 98 yards for a touchdown on the final play. Winston paced the N.Y. Giants offense, and Arizona got a strong effort from Brissett, but the Cardinals could not hold off a late surge. Arizona started fast. Brissett connected with Marvin Harrison Jr. for a 12-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter, and Chad Ryland kicked the extra point. The N.Y. Giants answered with a 39-yard field goal from Dominic Zvada. Arizona then extended its lead when Tyler Allgeier broke free for a 22-yard touchdown run, and Ryland again added the extra point. The Cardinals led 14-3 after the opening quarter and appeared in control behind Brissett’s short passing game and an effective ground attack. In the second quarter, Zvada made a 50-yard field goal to cut the deficit. Winston then found Malachi Fields for a 12-yard touchdown, but the two-point conversion attempt failed when Winston’s pass to C. Manhertz was incomplete. Winston followed with a 25-yard touchdown pass to Malik Nabers, giving the Giants a 19-14 lead. Arizona closed the half with a 60-yard field goal by Ryland, trimming the N.Y. Giants’ advantage to 19-17 at halftime. The long kick gave the Cardinals momentum and kept the game within one score. Arizona regained the lead in the third quarter when Brissett connected with Elijah Higgins for a 2-yard touchdown, and Ryland’s extra point made it 24-19. The N.Y. Giants threatened later in the period, but Zvada’s 34-yard field goal was nullified by a penalty. Winston then delivered an 11-yard touchdown pass to Theo Johnson, and Najee Harris ran left end for a successful two-point conversion. That sequence put the Giants ahead 27-24 entering the final quarter. The Cardinals’ offense struggled to sustain drives after Higgins’ score, and the Giants’ defense began to tighten. In the fourth quarter, Zvada extended the N.Y. Giants’ lead with a 52-yard field goal with 2:11 remaining. Arizona had one final chance, but Brissett’s short left pass intended for Michael Wilson was intercepted by Banks at the N.Y. Giants 2.
