Heroes, zeros from Giants’ loss to Packers: Jalin Hyatt bungles his long-awaited chance


Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 27-20 loss to the Packers at MetLife Stadium on Sunday:

Hero

Christian Watson scored two touchdowns, including the acrobatic game-winning 17-yard touchdown. He finished with four receptions for 46 yards.

Zero

Given the opportunity that he has been waiting for, Jalin Hyatt cut off his route in the end zone and Jameis Winston wound up throwing an interception instead of the game-tying touchdown.

Unsung Hero

When Jordan Love was sidelined with a left shoulder injury in the first half, Malik Willis came in and ran for 16 yards to convert a third down and then threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Watson.



Key Stat

100: Percent of red-zone trips that resulted in a touchdown for the Packers (4-for-4) compared with 60 percent for the Giants (3-for-5).

Quote

“I thought he was great. Didn’t overreact to anything. Tried to stay during the game. Was aggressive. Stayed calm on the sideline.”

— Wan’Dale Robinson on Mike Kafka’s debut as head coach
