The full read
Jayden Daniels beat the Giants on the last drive after two fourth-quarter interceptions nearly cost him the game: 23 of 33 for 249 yards, 3 touchdowns and 2 interceptions, worth +2.0 expected points added (EPA), what a play was worth given down, distance and field position. Three touchdown passes was a season high. The interceptions were his first of the season, after none in 180 attempts through Week 9.
Both were throws for Chig Okonkwo. Down 21-17 with 5:31 left, first and 10 at the New York 24, he went deep left and Jevón Holland intercepted at the 2, -4.0 EPA and 23.5 points of win probability, the estimate of each side's chance to win. With 2:19 left, on fourth and 2 at his own 45, Ar'Darius Washington picked off a short throw to the left.
The answer came with 1:46 left from his own 29. A pass interference flag on the first snap moved the ball 33 yards, and on third and 4 at the New York 32 he threw short over the middle to Stefon Diggs, who ran 26 yards after the catch for the touchdown: +4.2 EPA and 37.3 points of win probability, the largest swing of the game. He also ran 8 times for 30 yards.
Through Week 9 he had +2.9 EPA on 196 dropbacks, about +0.01 apiece; here it was +0.06, with one sack, Shelby Harris's 14-yarder in the third.
