New York Giants at Minnesota Vikings: Second quarter recap and third quarter discussion

They’re heading into the locker rooms at halftime at U.S. Bank Stadium, and our Minnesota Vikings trail the New York Giants by a score of 17-14.

The Vikings got the ball to near midfield on their possession that started in the first quarter, but the drive stalled (thanks in part to a dropped pass from Irv Smith Jr.) and they had to punt it away, with the Giants taking over at their own 9-yard line.

Despite starting deep in their own territory, the Giants once again marched the ball down the field with the Minnesota defense putting up basically no resistance.
