With less than a minute left in the-half, the Giants put a hail-mary and they converted. A 37-yard touchdown pass to Nicks in the end-zone put them up by 10 points. Nicks really made an unbelievable catch by leaping up in the air in a lot of traffic and he came down with the ball.

In the third quarter, the Packers were productive with the ball, but every-time they were about to score they fumbled the ball.
