Jones, though, took off and ran nine times in the New York Giants\u2019 23-19 victory over the Cowboys. He did not do much with the rushing attempts, gaining only 17 yards, but that he was able to take off made his pronouncement earlier in the week seem as if he were trying to convince everyone he was going to stay put in the pocket.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, that was Wednesday when we talked last and through the week, I felt a lot better,\u2019\u2019 Jones said, smiling. \u201cBy the time we were here on Sunday, I felt good about running and we did it. They defended it well but felt a lot better and felt good here.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Jones was able to toss two touchdown passes for the first time in six <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s. If this is it for the Giants for the season, he played better on his way out than he did at any point in December.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-megaphone\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm\/?e=ADL6480918105&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWe certainly had our share of ups and downs this season and didn\u2019t start as well as we could\u2019ve and should\u2019ve by any means, but I feel like through the season we\u2019ve battled and won close games,\u2019\u2019 Jones said. \u201cThe record or how it looks or what\u2019s typical in the NFL, I\u2019m not sure we\u2019re focused on that, but we\u2019re certainly proud of what we have accomplished and certainly aware of what we need to improve and what we need to work to get better.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>This was the first time since the NFL merger in 1970 that the Giants won a game without converting a single third down. They were 0-for-7. This was the first time the Giants failed to convert a third down in a game since Oct. 7, 2018, a loss to the Panthers.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Sterling Shepard played in the 56th game in his NFL career, and Sunday was the first time he had two touchdowns in the same game.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>LB Kyler Fackrell returned after missing the past four games with a calf injury and had a sack of Andy Dalton on the first play of the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Leonard Williams\u2019 three sacks increased his career-best numbers to 11.5 this season. That is the most for a Giants player since Jason Pierre-Paul had 12.5 sacks in 2014.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Graham Gano\u2019s 50-yard field goal in the fourth quarter gave him a franchise-record 30 consecutive made field goals. Josh Brown made 29 straight in 2015 and 2016.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>DT Dalvin Tomlinson is the first defensive player to start off with the Giants and start the first 64 games of his career. Tomlinson has not missed game or a start in his four-year career. He is set to become an unrestricted free agent and there are no guarantees he will return.\n            <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
