The New York Giants are taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, and while the Giants had a pretty healthy lead at one point, they let that slip away, and of course an Eli Manning turnover was involved in the process.
Eli and the Giants were up 21-3 early in the third quarter, however they were backed up near their goal line. That’s where, as you can figure out by now, the turnover bug jumped up and took a bite.
Manning was under some heavy pressure, was eventually knocked around and lost the ball. For the Jaguars, J.T. Thomas was right there to grab the ball for the six points.
And just like that, somewhat, the Jaguars are right back in the game in the second half.
Turnovers have been a problem for Eli the past few seasons, and that’s not just limited to interceptions, apparently.
But the Jaguars, to their credit, were right there to capitalize on the mistake, which the Giants offensive line had better make sure never happens again.
