The New York Giants have jumped out to a surprising 17-7 lead ov

er the Indianapolis Colts in Sunday’s game at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.Who are these Giants and where were they ... the whole season? That’s the question as the Giants (5-9) stunned the Colts (8-6) in the first quarter with a pair of excellent touchdown drives to start the game. The Giants started the game by forcing a pair of three and outs Landon Collins Color Rush Jersey , while methodically driving down the field to score a pair of touchdowns. The first on a short Saquon Barkley run, the second on a quick pass to Scott Simonson. The Colts got things going in the second quarter, scoring a touchdown of their own. A week after dropping three passes, Sterling Shepard has been the player of the game for the Giants. The third-year receiver caught passes of 55 and 20 yards, repeatedly helping to keep Giants’ drives alive and creating big plays to hurt the Colts’ defense. The Giants obviously don’t trust their offensive line to hold up to the Colts’ front seven, but are making excellent use of misdirection and quick passes to keep the pressure away from Eli Manning. The scheme has been working, and Manning has played efficient football. Manning is 13-of-18 for 176 yards and a touchdown.Mario Edwards Jr. left the game with a calf injury. Colts’ center Ryan Kelly is questionable to return with a neck injury.The Giants will get the ball to start the second half. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Giants safety and leading tackler Landon Collins is going to miss the rest of the season with a shoulder injury.The Giants said Wednesday that Collins has a partially torn labrum and will need surgery. The team had said earlier Collins would not play Sunday in Washington.The expected recovery time for this type of injury can be anywhere from four to six months.Collins was not in the locker room before the practice to comment.An All-Pro in 2106 and a two-time Pro Bowler, Collins was hurt in Sunday’s overtime win against the Chicago Bears. He left the game late in the first half after assisting on a tackle against halfback Tarik Cohen. He returned at least twice in the second half and has 96 tackles.“Landon displays what he is Dalvin Tomlinson Color Rush Jersey , he’s a very tough guy, very good tackler, he’s made a lot of plays for us, especially close to the line of scrimmage,” coach Pat Shurmur said of Collins’ season. “I’ve said it numerous times, in a sport where toughness is required, he’s got a lot of it, so that’s what I appreciate about him.”Collins has led the Giants in tackles in each of his first three seasons. His contract expires after this season. The second-round draft pick in 2015 has started 60 of the team’s 61 regular-season and postseason games. He missed the 2017 season finale after fracturing a forearm.“It (stinks) not having my guy next to me, but it’s a next-man-up league Phil McConkey Color Rush Jersey , so that’s what we got to do,” fellow starting safety Curtis Riley said. “It’s going to feel a little funny, but that’s my guy, so I got to do it. We got to do it.”Veteran Michael Thomas and rookie Sean Chandler probably will share Collins’ workload on Sunday.“Obviously we’re going to miss him, but it’s an opportunity for young guys to step up, our new guys to step up,” said Thomas, who had five tackles Sunday.“You don’t just replace a guy like LC, two-time Pro Bowl player Andrew Adams Color Rush Jersey , All-Pro safety. You don’t just replace that, so that’s my brother, we’re going to ride for him.”Chandler, who had one tackle against the Bears, said he would be ready.Chandler was an undrafted free agent out of Temple. He played in the NFLPA bowl game in January and was coached by Thomas, who signed with the Giants as a free agent in the offseason.“He has always tried to give me the inside scoop and way I can do things better,” Chandler said of Thomas. “He has always told me to work hard and he still does that.”
