Giants keep pace in NFC East after rally beats Falcons
Sorting through the celebratory din and bags of equipment littering the floor in the post-game locker room of the New York Giants, there was one thing Tom Coughlin needed to do. He had to shake a hand.
The Giants' head coach sought rookie wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and congratulated him on a successful NFL debut. "That was a good job out there today, " Coughlin told the rookie, whose go-ahead touchdown catch gave New York the lead it wouldn't relinquish in a 30-20 victory against the Atlanta Falcons. "This is the first of many you'll have, but now is the time to work even harder because now other teams know what you can do. "
That goes for the Giants as a whole, too. The race for the NFC East, suddenly, is heating up. It seemed unlikely that the Giants, – aafter losing their first two games of the season, would be a division contender. But a three-game win streak has propelled them right behind the 4-1 Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys, who both of whom won on Sunday.
