The Carolina Panthers secured a tight 20-17 overtime win over the New York Giants in Munich, Germany, marking the team's first winning streak since Weeks 12-14, 2022.
A Tyrone Tracy Jr. fumble on the first play of overtime catalyzed a game-winning 36-yard kick for Eddie Pineiro. Daniel Jones marched the Giants down the field with just over 2 minutes left to knot things up with a 43-yard Graham Gano field goal, but it proved all for naught.
With both teams relatively even in EPA per play and third-down conversion marks, a focal difference proved the Giants' three turnovers to the Panthers' one. Bryce Young was rather effective in his second straight start, recording a 79.1 overall grade.
