Tommy DeVito sacked 7 times, Saints defeat Giants

Derek Carr led the Saints to a 24-6 victory over the Giants with 218 yards and three touchdowns, despite missing top receiver.

The New Orleans Saints had a dominant performance against the New York Giants, with Derek Carr throwing for 218 yards and three touchdowns while the Saints sacked Tommy DeVito seven times. This was a redemptive performance for Carr, who had been struggling in recent home games. Despite the absence of top receiver Chris Olave due to an ankle injury, Carr connected on 23 of 28 passes without a turnover, marking one of his most efficient outings of the season.

Carr's scoring passes went to Keith Kirkwood, Juwan Johnson, and Jimmy Graham, helping the Saints secure a 24-6 victory. This win kept the Saints tied atop the NFC South with Tampa Bay and marked the end of a successful run for DeVito, who led the Giants on a three-game winning streak before this loss.

The Giants are now guaranteed a losing record and face only a slight chance of making it to the postseason as the last NFC wild-card team. Despite DeVito's efforts, the Giants' offense struggled, finishing with just 193 total yards and converting only two of 16 third downs.

In terms of injuries, the Giants' kicker, Randy Bullock, hurt his hamstring on a kickoff and did not return to the game. Meanwhile, the Saints were without Olave and starting right tackle Ryan Ramczyk due to injuries. The game also saw reserve safety Lonnie Johnson Jr. helped off the field with a right leg injury.

Overall, the Saints' victory was a testament to their resilience and ability to overcome adversity, while the Giants will need to regroup and refocus as they head into their final three games of the season.
