New York Giants vs. Denver Broncos Player of the Game: Jaxson Dart

In a stunning Week 7 NFL matchup, the New York Giants traveled to Empower Field at Mile High to face the Denver Broncos on Sunday afternoon. What began as a commanding performance by the Giants devolved into one of the most shocking collapses in recent franchise history.

The Giants appeared poised for a decisive blowout victory, holding a commanding 19-point lead in the second half. However, with under six minutes remaining, the tide turned dramatically on a costly interception by Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart.

The pivotal error sparked a frantic Broncos comeback, as New York surrendered their advantage in a flurry of defensive miscues and untimely penalties, ultimately falling in heartbreaking fashion.

Despite the deflating defeat, Dart's overall performance stood out as a beacon of promise. Excluding the ill-fated interception, he delivered a poised and efficient outing, earning our Player of the Game honors for his resilience and dual-threat capabilities.

Dart completed 15 of 33 passes for 283 yards, tossing three touchdowns while adding 11 rushing yards and a score on five carries. His ability to extend plays and distribute the ball effectively kept the Giants' offense humming for most of the afternoon.

For a Giants franchise all too familiar with late-game meltdowns over the past decade, this loss feels particularly unfathomable. Yet, with the season far from over, New York must quickly regroup, refocus on Dart's continued development, and build momentum heading into the stretch run.

Giants fans, brace for more twists -- football's unpredictability is what makes it unforgettable. And for this fan base, often depressing.
