Giants Enjoy a Kansas City Bar-B-Q!

Three touchdowns raise $750.00 for the New Jersey YMCA State Alliance

The Giants steamrolled their way to another easy victory with a convincing 27-16 win over the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium this past Sunday in Kansas City.  With the victory the Giants improved their record to 4-0 and retain the top spot in the NFC East.

Giants quarterback Eli Manning had another great day throwing three touchdown passes.  Two of the touchdown strikes went to emerging wide out Steve Smith, while the other touchdown pass was lofted to rookie wide receiver Hakeem Nicks.  On the day Manning threw for 292 yards and had a QB rating of 104.2 - despite sitting out much of the 4th quarter with a bruised heel.

The Giants are now 6th in the league in scoring, averaging 26.8 points per game and are fourth in the league in total offense.

Through four weeks of the NFL season, the Touchdowns for Families program has raised $2,750.00 for the New Jersey YMCA State Alliance and the Healthy U program.
