Disappointed New York Giants fans react to 'brutal' 24-21 loss to Commanders - Giants Wire

The New York Giants hosted the Washington Commanders in a divisional Thursday Night Football matchup at MetLife Stadium. Both teams entered on short rest for a critical contest. Despite questionable weather throughout the day, the atmosphere was electric for the Giants’ whiteout.

The Giants struggled in the first half and headed into the locker room trailing 10-7. After the Commanders scored to take a 17-14 lead late in the third quarter, the Giants regained the advantage with a 66-yard touchdown by Isaiah Likely midway through the fourth. They then forced back-to-back interceptions from Jayden Daniels, courtesy of Jevon Holland and Ar’Darius Washington.

Washington regained possession down 21-17 with less than two minutes remaining and took a three-point lead with under a minute to go. The Giants drove into Washington territory on their potential game-winning drive, but it ended with a J.J. McCarthy interception.

Cam Skattebo scored two touchdowns in the contest. Dominic Zvada missed another field goal, and those three points proved crucial down the stretch.

With the loss, the Giants fell to 5-3-1 on the season. Here’s how X reacted.
