Giants quarterback Eli Manning buys some time, and then throws up a 37-yard touchdown pass to receiver Hakeem Nicks to end the half.

The pass/catch gave the Giants a 20-10 halftime lead, and all the momentum going into the seocnd half.

This play probably gave you the impression that it was the Gaints' day.

The Giants went on to win, 37-20.
