The article provides takeaways from the New York Giants' narrow 12-7 victory over the Tennessee Titans in Week 3 of the NFL season at MetLife Stadium. It highlights challenging weather conditions that affected fan turnout but did not significantly disrupt play, with quarterback struggles being a bigger factor than wind and rain. The piece also emphasizes a critical missed field goal by the Titans late in the first half that swung momentum towards the Giants, underscoring the importance of coaching decisions during crucial moments.

Story summary
The New York Giants face worsening injury issues as star linebacker Brian Burns will miss time due to an ankle injury suffered during their 28-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Jaxson Dart, the team's young quarterback, has been ruled out for the season after suffering knee damage in the same game. The Giants host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday and are expected to start backup QB Jameis Winston, who struggled in his first game back since Dart’s injury. Despite these challenges, rookie kicker Dominic Zvada showed promise with successful field goals against the Rams, potentially boosting a unit looking to make improvements under new coordinator John Harbaugh.
