Notes: The Giants finished 3-5 on the road for the third consecutive season. The Giants won their sixth in a row vs. the Rams, a streak that began in 2002.

Eli Manning’s 148.8 quarterback rating against the Rams was his highest in a full game in his 11-year career. This was the 32nd time Manning threw for at least 300 yards in a regular-season game.

WR Odell Beckham’s eight receptions increased his season total to 79, the most in NFL history for a player in his first 11 career games. Beckham’s 79 receptions is a Giants rookie record. He broke the former mark held by tight end Jeremy Shockey, who caught 74 passes in 2002. Beckham extended his Giants and NFL rookie records with his eighth consecutive game with at least 90 receiving yards. Next week, he can tie the league record of nine, set by Hall of Famer Michael Irvin in 1995. Beckham is the first rookie in NFL history with at least 130 receiving yards and a touchdown catch in three consecutive games. Beckham’s two touchdowns increased his season total to 11, which breaks Bill Swiacki’s Giants rookie record for scoring receptions, which had stood since 1948 (when Swiacki caught 10). Beckham is one shy of Bill Paschal’s franchise record for total touchdowns by a rookie. Paschal had 12 in 1943 (10 rushing, two receiving).
