He has already experienced plenty in his early days as the Giants' starting quarterback.
There was his spectacular debut in a comeback win in Tampa, where he produced four total touchdowns, including the game-winning TD run late in the fourth quarter. There was an efficient, albeit unremarkable performance in an easy win over Washington last week, one that reinvigorated a team that suddenly found itself filled with hope.
And now this: a day of missed opportunities, of relentless pressure from the opposing defense, no individual heroics and some rookie mistakes in a 28-10 loss to the Vikings at MetLife Stadium.
