This was certainly a great moment to see after images of Beckham hitting the net with his helmet only to have the net come back and hit him in the head circulated the internet against the Redskins. While it appeared that Beckham was back to having some fun, it didn’t result in a Giants win.

The loss to the Packers is the third straight for the Giants, who struggled on the road the past two weeks. The NFC East is shaping up to be a challenging division this season, and the Giants are beginning to fall behind at 2-3 now.
Even though it was late in the game, it was good to see Beckham get his first touchdown reception of the season. Furthermore, if the Giants are going to snap their losing streak, Beckham’s production will have to increase.
