Two more touchdowns were scored in the third quarter via Prescott's arm, a 41-yard drop in the bucket to Michael Gallup and a 12-yard scoring strike to Lamb. He finished with 173 receiving yards, tied for his second-most in a game of his career, that touchdown and nine catches. All are single-game season-highs for the 10-year vet.

New York's best chance to get on the board occurred when Prescott tried to squeeze a pass to tight end Jake Ferguson on third-and-5, and the Giants were waiting for him to make that throw. He got the the scoring started with a 14-yard wide reverse rushing touchdown, a play in which Prescott faked a handoff to running back Tony Pollard and then pitched it to Lamb who was then able to jog untouched into the end zone for the score.
