5 Takeaways From Jets 23-20 Win Over Giants [VIDEO]

1. Missed Opportunities- There are always key moments in a game that dramatically change the outcome. The Giants have been on the wrong side of most of those moments. Kicker Josh Brown was a perfect 25-25 in field goals made this season. In overtime Brown missed a 48 yard field goal that would have tied the game. After the game all Brown could say was, "A w forgives a lot of things but yeah this is painful. I mean we had that game in hand and you know we've got to take the opportunities were given and that was my opportunity. It didn't work out."

2. Inability To Finish- Just as missed opportunities have defined the Giants season so has their inability to finish football games. This issue has persisted all season long. When referring to the need to improve their ability to finish Justin Pugh said, "I can only say it so many times. You gotta go out there and execute". The Giants have echoed that statement but continue to struggle with the actual execution of it.

3. The Running Game- The Giants have rushed for 107 collective yards in the two losses since the bye week. The inability to receive any form of consistent production from the array of running backs is preventing the Giants from becoming a well balanced offense.

4. Carrying The Weight- Odell Beckham Jr. amazes on nearly every single play. He did that again on Sunday with 6 receptions, 149 yards, and a 72 yard receiving touchdown. Beckham had had 11 targets in the game while the only other reciever who came close to him had 6. The absence of Victor Cruz combined with the lack of production in the running game has put the weight of the offense on Beckham's shoulders.

5. Special Teams- The Giants have struggled to find complete performances from the different phases of their team this season. Special teams has generally brought reliability to the overall unit. That notion was illustrated again Sunday as Dwayne Harris had an 80 yard punt return to give Big Blue their first touchdown of the day. Harris is the first Giants player to have a punt and kickoff return in the same season since Jimmy Patton in 1955.
