New York Giants game-by-game season predictions

Week 6 (Oct. 10) – Thursday Night Football @ New England Patriots, 8:20 p.m.

Man, the Patriots are just loaded this year – once again. One of the biggest, yet under-the-radar, moves of the off-season was the Pats landing Michael Bennett. A d-lineman capable of playing multiple positions, I expect Bill Bellichick to have a bunch of fun with the former Eagle. The team also loaded-up in the draft, with the Chase Winovich selection standing out as a classic inevitable Patriots success story.

A major key to beating New England is having line-backers that can cover, and cover well. I just don’t see much of that on this Giants team. Bellichick is famous for disguising formations and using motion to get the match-ups he wants, and I’m sure that will be the case here. It’s unlikely our pass-rush will be good enough to make Brady uncomfortable, as this will be one of (if not the most) frustrating games of the season.

Prediction: Loss

Record: 3-3
