UPDATED, 12:34 p.m.: Congratulations to Dallin Holker who just made his first career catch, gaining 10 yards and a first down on a short pattern.

The Saints are now in the red zone and Kamara drives them deeper with a strong run down the left side with Taliese Fuaga and Adam Prentice leading the way.

That was a lead of 12, so it’s a first-and-goal at the 8. Kendre Miller stopped but powered his legs, now gets some help from the bunch and is all the way in the end zone. Some energy and physicality from the Saints.

It’s actually a 98-yard touchdown drive. Grupe’s PAT is good and the Saints lead 7-0 with 1:19 left in the first quarter.

UPDATED, 12:30 p.m.: Klint Kubiak is aggressive from the 2-yard line with Carr making a deep shot for Marquez Valdes-Scantling. It didn’t look bad, but good coverage from Adoree Jackson – who actually hit the ball toward MVS but had her back turned – and it’s incomplete.

However, on third-and-7, Carr hit a crosser to MVS for the first down. Ball came out late but was ruled out.

On the next play it goes up in the air again and Juwan Johnson is open in the middle. Carr beats him with flying colors, and that’s a big advantage. 31 yards and into Giants territory. Can you say a 98 yard drive? More than half done.

UPDATED, 12:25 p.m.: The Saints defense gets a three-and-out, but Jamie Gillan just had one of the punts of the season. It bounced around the 3 and went sideways out of bounds, meaning Derek Carr and Co. are well behind for their third drive.

We’re still scoreless with 6:30 left in the first quarter.

UPDATED, 12:20 p.m.: Drew Lock was 0/5 with an intentional grounding on this drive. Not good, but good for the Saints defense, which allowed the 15-yard scramble but nothing else.

Now the Saints have the ball back and Kamara has the first down on a 9-yard run on third-and-5. Maybe New York could have surprised with the running game there.

Field goal range will be a nebulous thing with today’s swirling winds, but the Saints are getting close for Blake Grupe.

Man, not anymore. Kamara loses 2 on a first down run, and then Kendre Miller, with his first touch of the ball in weeks, catches a reverse pass from Carr and loses 3 more.

On third-and-15, Carr hits the third running back, Jamaal Williams, back to the 35. Now we’ll see if Darren Rizzi is comfortable with Grupe from that distance.

He will try. It’s a 53-yard attempt. Not good. His first miss since 50+ this year. That was hard.

In doing so, the Saints give the Giants good field position back. So far neither team has been able to take advantage of it.

UPDATED, 12:13 p.m.: After the Saints’ loss leaves the Giants out of jail on third-and-15, New York fails to capitalize. Lock’s third-and-8 pass hits Bryan Bresee’s helmet – one way to score a PBU – and on fourth down Lock has to throw it hard under pressure.

There is a flag down, I’m assuming it’s an offensive hold, so this should be a fourth-down stop for the Saints defense. And in fact, this could have been an intentional grounding by Lock, as the ball never made it back to the line of scrimmage.

It is. Good field position for the Saints.

UPDATED, 12:10 p.m.: Darius Slayton with a nice attempt at a diving catch, but he’s out of bounds and I think the ball still could have hit the turf.

That brings third and 10th and third and 15th after an illegal formation penalty against the G men. Drew Lock, New York’s starting quarterback, is under pressure but finds running space to his left and goes all 15 yards for the first down. There’s a bad leak from New Orleans and the Giants are within field goal range with a first down.

UPDATED, 12:06 p.m.: The Giants win the toss and lay it back, so the Saints have the ball here first. Remember, they have their entire starting offense together for the first time in 11 weeks. And it seems a lot longer ago.

However, that doesn’t do them any good in this first series. A negative run by Alvin Kamara, then a dropped pass by Dante Pettis on third down and the Saints go three-and-out.

Not a good punt either. The Giants take over the Saints’ 48 after the punt.

UPDATED, 11:59 a.m.: Almost ready to go at MetLife Stadium, where the Giants have yet to win a game this year. New York also has just one interception on defense this year, a pick by linebacker Darius Muasau in Week 1.

These are obviously a few trends the Saints would like to continue today. The weather is cool but not too bad, but it looks like the wind could be a problem during the passing or kicking game, with gusts up to 30 miles per hour.

The coin toss is coming up, then the week 14 action.

UPDATED, 10:56 a.m.: Welcome to another edition of the New Orleans Saints live blog. I’m Zach Ewing, deputy editor of the Times-Picayune, here to bring you some updates, analysis and reaction to the Saints’ game against the New York Giants this afternoon.

It’s the Saints’ first road game in more than a month – specifically, since Nov. 3, when the Saints lost at Carolina and fired Dennis Allen the next day.

This, of course, is interim coach Darren Rizzi’s first away game, and it happens to be 15 miles from his hometown in New Jersey. To that end, your pre-game reading assignment will consist of this wonderful feature on Rizzi and his upbringing, written by Luke Johnson after spending the last few days with the Rizzis.

The other order of business, a little over an hour before game time, is that former LSU star Malik Nabers, a rookie wide receiver, will actually be active for the Giants. He missed practice most of the week and was questionable, but he’ll be out there.

The Saints have Taysom Hill out for a year after suffering a knee injury last week, but New Orleans is otherwise healthy. This is particularly important to note on the offensive line, where both Erik McCoy and Lucas Patrick return. The Saints have a combined starting offense for the first time since Week 3, when they took a 2-0 lead and McCoy was sidelined on the first series because of a serious groin injury.
