Giants news, 11/14: Giants enjoying that winning feeling

Pat Shurmur talks about “real joy” of players after Monday victory

Good morning, New York Giants fans! Let’s get to your Wednesday morning headlines.

“Real joy” after beating 49ers

Monday’s victory over the San Francisco 49ers didn’t salvage the season or put the 2-7 Giants back into playoff contention. It did, however, provide a struggling team with a much-needed boost.

“Anytime you win, it kind of verifies that what you’re doing is right,” coach Pat Shurmur saids Tuesday. “The reason we all started playing and coaching football is because we love the competition, we love the physical nature of the game, and we love the process of getting ready to play the next opponent. Then on game day, you put all your energy into winning, all your energy into putting a winning performance on the field, and so I sensed real joy in the locker room yesterday – a bunch of guys that put a lot into it, and we were able to overcome some adversity and win a football game.

“Hopefully we can get on a little run now and win a few games in a row here and just see what happens. Certainly when you win, it helps verify and justify that what you’re doing is right.”

Quarterback Eli Manning agreed.

“Wins are important,” Manning said. “Wins mean a lot, especially after this season and what we’ve had to go through as a team, what I’ve had to go through, and just the questions and this and that. So, just to be able to have a two-minute drive to win a football game, hopefully we can just focus on some positive things for at least one more week.”
