New York Giants game-by-game season predictions

Week 12 (Nov. 24) – @ Chicago Bears, 1 p.m.

 In another surprise pick, I have Big Blue knocking off the vaunted Chicago Bears at Soldier Field here. Granted, I am writing this only hours after watching Chicago put up a season-opening dud at home against Green Bay, but that only made me more confident. I’m expecting the Bears to take a step-back this season, and it’s worth-noting that the Giants beat Chicago around this same time last year (albeit against Chase Daniel, and at home).

Saquon had one of his most impressive games of all of 2018, racking up 125 yards on a 5.2 rushing average against Chicago last December. I don’t see the Bear’s offense as being anything to fear this season, although it would be nice to hold Tarik Cohen to less than 156 yards receiving (on 12 catches) this time around. Giants win this one in a nail-biter on a last-second kick from Aldrick Rosas. Big Blue hits the high-water mark of 6-5 on the season, while ensuring to be a part of the mix in the December-NFC picture.

Prediction: Win

Record: 6-5
