Defensive Stand
In the Giants defensive series prior to that, Odell Beckham Jr. caught the ball in the end zone but had it knocked out of his hands by Malcolm Butler, just as his second foot touched the ground. The ruling on the field was a touchdown but after replay, it was overturned.
The Giants were forced to settle for a field goal to go up 26-24 and give New England the ball back with plenty of time.
Huge Loss
The Patriots got the win but may have lost Julian Edelman for some time. Edelman left the game at the end of the first quarter with a foot injury and did not return.
The Patriots lost Dion Lewis for the season last week.
