The New York Giants pulled off a shocking Week 4 upset over the Los Angeles Chargers, powered by rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart’s debut performance and a revitalized defense that pressured Justin Herbert into mistakes. Despite losing Malik Nabers to a season-ending ACL injury, Big Blue found new life with Dart and Cam Skattebo leading the offense. Neal Lynch recaps the Giants’ first win over the Chargers since 1998, breaks down Brian Daboll’s job-saving decision, and previews the Week 5 showdown against the New Orleans Saints. Is this the start of a turnaround for the G-Men—or just a temporary spark?
