The Minnesota Vikings dominated the New York Giants with a 28-6 lead, largely due to the stellar performance of linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel. Van Ginkel recorded a 10-yard pick-six off a Daniel Jones pass, contributing significantly to the Vikings' commanding lead. Jones struggled throughout the game, throwing two interceptions, including one in the end zone to Harrison Smith. By the third quarter, many Giants fans had already left the stadium. Sam Darnold, the Vikings' quarterback, completed 17 of 21 passes for 195 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. The Giants' offense, led by Jones, failed to gain momentum, with Jones completing only 15 of 28 passes for 137 yards. The game saw the Vikings leading 28-6 with 4:22 left in the third quarter.
