DT Johnathan HankinsAfter the Giants kept getting close to Matt Ryan with seven quarterback hits but had no sacks, Hankins finally took down the Atlanta quarterback at the most critical time. On fourth-and-one with 4:40 remaining in the game and the Giants leading by seven, Hankins sacked Ryan for a loss of one yard as the Falcons turned the ball over on downs. Josh Brown kicked a field goal on the ensuing possession to seal the Giants' third straight victory.

WR Odell Beckham Jr. The rookie first-round draft pick, who had dealt with a hamstring issue since mid-August, made his NFL debut in Sunday's Week 5 matchup with the Falcons. It was worth the wait as Beckham caught four passes for 44 yards, including a 15-yard, go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter. Earlier in the game, he drew a long pass interference penalty that eventually led to a touchdown. 

QB Eli ManningWhile the defense allowed just seven points in the second half, Manning orchestrated 20 unanswered points in a comeback win for the Giants. He finished 19 of 30 for 200 yards and two touchdowns with no turnovers.

RB Andre WilliamsAfter starting running back Rashad Jennings had to leave the game with a knee sprain, the rookie Williams gained key yards down the stretch, beginning the comeback with a three-yard touchdown late in the third quarter to cut into the Falcons' 10-point lead. Williams finished with 65 yards on 20 carries and added two catches for 18 yards.

Offensive LineAside from a sack by former Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora, the Giants kept Eli Manning upright and paved the way for a third straight 100-yard rushing game.

Giants FansThe 80,307 fans at MetLife Stadium on Sunday propelled the Giants to their third straight victory of the season as the team gained a winning record for the first time since 2012. The noise helped the Giants' defense buckle down time after time in key situations, holding the Falcons to 2 of 13 on third down conversion attempts.
