Final: New York Giants 19, Carolina Panthers 16
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
It got really rowdy for Carolina's third down attempt. Baker Mayfield is sacked for a loss of nine yards. The Panthers punt the ball to New York, down 19-16, with 2:06 remaining in the game.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Giants brought the pressure, get the third down sack by Julian Love and the Panthers had to punt.

Marquan McCall tallies Carolina's 9th TFL of the game

Graham Gano hits a 56-yard field goal, Giants up 19-16 with 3:34 left.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Saquon Barkley, quieted through much of the first half and into the second, has now tallied five plays of 8+ yards.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
He's carried a 10-yard run, 8-yard run and 9-yard reception in the current drive.
Donte Jackson is out of the game. Getting his right leg looked at.
— Bill Voth (@PanthersBill) September 18, 2022
Eddy Piñeiro makes from 38 yards to tie it back up with the Giants. The Panthers' drive included an electric 49-yard rush from CMC, but stalled out in the red zone

34th career 100-yard game for Christian McCaffrey...first since the Washington game in 2021
— Will Bryan (@Pantherstatsguy) September 18, 2022
The Panthers fail to convert on 3rd and 9 at the New York 20. They're 2 of 11 on 3rd down today.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Big moves, Christian McCaffrey moves. 49 yard run.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Graham Gano hits from 52 yards, and the Giants are up 16-13 with 12:31 left in the game.

Donte Jackson is out of the game. Getting his right leg looked at.
— Bill Voth (@PanthersBill) September 18, 2022
Tied at 13 after three quarters, and the Giants and the Panthers are equivalently struggling to move the ball (other than those two drives that happened in a hurry).
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Burns brought the pressure.
— Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) September 18, 2022
Ioannidis followed up 🤝 pic.twitter.com/B0gMkzlAKE
Third sack of the game for Carolina.
— Will Bryan (@Pantherstatsguy) September 18, 2022
First of his Panthers career for Matt Ioannidis...25.5 for his career
Another Daniel Jones sack ends the Giants' drive in a 3-and-out. Matt Ioannidis got to him that time.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Roy (hamstring) will not return.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Bravvion Roy getting up slowly after that one, limping off.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Chuba Hubbard with a nice return (37 yards), loses the ball at the end, but ruled down by contact.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Averted disaster.
The Giants respond to the Panthers' quick TD drive with one of their own. Saquon Barkley had a 16 yard rush (by far his longest of the day) as part of the drive, and Daniel Jones was efficient pushing the ball downfield. All tied up.

15th career TD for DJ Moore. First from Baker Mayfield.
— Will Bryan (@Pantherstatsguy) September 18, 2022
Baker Mayfield with some big rushing yards on that drive.
Baker Mayfield finds DJ Moore in the end zone. 16-yard TD, Panthers lead the Giants for the first time today.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
It was a real quick drive. 3 plays, 67 yards, 1:00 off the clock.

Mayfield opens with a 29-yard strike to DJ Moore and then runs for another first down, and there's a Giants penalty.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Panthers in business to start the second half.
Burns with another sack, and the Giants go three-and-out to start the second half.

Carolina held NYG to 0 net rushing yards in the first half.
— Will Bryan (@Pantherstatsguy) September 18, 2022
That marks the second time in franchise history (Week 17, 2021) that Carolina has held an opponent to 0 or fewer net rush yards in first half.

Shi Smith back on the field, but Mayfield missed him on third down.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Piñeiro from 32 ties it at 6-6 with 0:56 left in the half.
Baker Mayfield targeted Shi Smith (oh he's back from a quick trip to the tent) on 3rd and long in the red zone, but pass falls incomplete
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
he’s out of the tent and back on the sideline, helmet in hand https://t.co/df8g1pauQc
— Bill Voth (@PanthersBill) September 18, 2022
Mayfield with a neat little keeper for first down. Had McCaffrey and Moore in the backfield with him.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Shi Smith walks off on his own, going to the tent to get checked.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Gio Ricci and now Stephen Sullivan have each made their first career receptions today.
— Bill Voth (@PanthersBill) September 18, 2022
Shi Smith is injured. He stands up and walks off on his own power, but he was down for a little bit.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Panthers force a 3-and-out and the defense gets off the field in less than 30 seconds.

Shi Smith down on the punt return.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Panthers go for it on 4th and 1 from their own 48, and Ickey Ekwonu is called for a false start. Johnny Hekker will now punt.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Panthers were going for fourth-and-1, until Ickey Ekwonu's false start.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
D'Onta Foreman's first carry of the day goes 7 yards. I like his change-of-style ability. Keeps things spicy
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Shi Smith back to return the Giants' first punt of the day, and it rolls into the end zone.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Derrick Brown breaks up third-down pass and the Giants punt. Shi Smith lets it fly into the end zone.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
The Panthers haven't let Saquon Barkley get much of anything so far.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Frankie Luvu with the 5-yard TFL brings Barkley's rushing total to -1 yard on four attempts early in the second quarter. Barkley's longest rush so far went 3 yards.
Frankie Luvu is active so far, just dropped Saquon for a 5-yard loss.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Eddy Piñeiro makes from 31 yards to get Carolina on the board. Panthers went 58 yards in 13 plays, stalling out in the red zone after they got a short-lived offensive groove going to start the second quarter

It didn't end the way they'd have preferred, but a 13-play drive was borderline essential at that moment.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Promising drive stalls when Shi Smith drops a third-down chance.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Piñeiro's 31-yard field goal makes it 6-3.
OK, Gio Ricci. 16 yard catch from Baker Mayfield. Longest play of the day... so far.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Mayfield followed it up with a 19-yard pass to Robbie Anderson.
Panthers' offense working well in rhythm, like last week.
McCaffrey converts the fourth-down attempt. He has five carries for 21 yards and also a catch for 6 in the first quarter.

A second Baker Mayfield pass is swatted down at the line

Frankie Luvu with four tackles including a big one on third down.
— Will Bryan (@Pantherstatsguy) September 18, 2022
Carolina has held NYG to 1-4 on third down to start.
The early returns on defense are good, but nearly 8-minute drives require the offense to actually move the chains and give them a chance to breathe.
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
Carolina's defense has avoided letting the Giants find the end zone despite favorable field position from back-to-back TOs.
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
But they struggled to get off the field in that last drive. New York took 7:47 off the clock in 13 plays to go just 25 yards for the field goal.

The Giants drove all the way to the Panthers' 5 after the turnover, but back-to-back TFLs (including a Brian Burns sack) pushed them back for another field goal attempt, this one from 33 yards out
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022

Panthers defense holding up well. Back-to-back stops behind the line of scrimmage (Luvu and Burns).
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
To only be down 6-0 at this point is the best they could expect after a pair of turnovers.

Panthers defense holds Giants to three-and-out (including a nice open-field tackle by Donte Jackson).
— Darin Gantt (@daringantt) September 18, 2022
But Graham Gano's field goal gives the Giants a quick 3-0 lead.
Would appear that Chuba Hubbard will return the second kickoff
— Augusta Stone (@augustalstone) September 18, 2022
Giants strike first, though their offense went just 4 yards in 4 plays. Hubbard's turnover put Graham Gano in field goal range from the jump.
