New York Giants fall flat in 16-13 loss to Minnesota Vikings as Jaxson Dart has his worst game as a pro.

Patricia Traina breaks down the Giants' ninth straight defeat, spotlighting a questionable run-heavy strategy, Dart’s struggles under pressure, and mounting drop issues from Theo Johnson and Darius Slayton. Defensive bright spots include multiple takeaways and standout play from Brian Burns, but consistent third-down failures and costly penalties haunt the team.

The looming “Tank Bowl” against the Raiders and the uncertain future of GM Joe Schoen add intrigue, while red zone inefficiency and injuries on both sides continue to derail the Giants’ season.
