The NY Giants are finally getting their respect from the NFL and the TV networks. The Giants’ Week 15 game against Cleveland will now be in front of a national audience.

The NY Giants are getting some respect for their four-game winning streak. The NFL announced Wednesday that the Giants’ Week 15 game against the Cleveland Browns has been flexed to Sunday Night Football for an 8:20 p.m. kickoff in front of a national audience.

The move makes sense as both teams are pushing for playoff spots. Cleveland is now an impressive 9-3 and they are also riding a 4-game winning streak. Both teams have been at the bottom of the league for the last several years but both teams finally seem to be on the upswing.

This game will feature some big names such as Baker Mayfield, Myles Garrett, and Jarvis Landry. Although Odell Beckham Jr. isn’t healthy and won’t be playing, you can be sure this is a very important and meaningful game to Kevin Stefanski’s team.

The game also features Kevin Zeitler and Jabrill Peppers‘ revenge game against the team that traded them. Olivier Vernon will make his return to Metlife as a Brown and will look to wreak havoc on the NY Giants offense.

Things are starting to look good in New York and Cleveland again for their respective football teams. They are two of the best football cities in America and it’s exciting to see two teams with a rich history meet in primetime action. The legendary duo of Cris Collinsworth and Al Michaels will commentate the game along with Michele Tafoya giving insight and analysis from both teams’ sidelines.

New York welcomes Arizona to Metlife this week before facing the Browns. Cleveland will host Baltimore Monday Night on ESPN’s Monday Night Football.

The Week 15 Sunday Night Football game should be a great contest and one you don’t want to miss it. It will be New York’s fourth primetime game in 2020 and it will be Cleveland’s third primetime game. Cleveland will be playing back-to-back primetime games in Week 14 and Week 15, something the NY Giants did in Week 7 and Week 8. The Giants lost their Week 7 Thursday Night game against Philadelphia before losing in ugly fashion on Monday Night Football against the Bucs in Week 8.
