3 reasons the Giants will take down the Bengals and Joe Burrow on SNF
1. Daniel Jones continues to play clean football
Ever since Jones' disastrous season-opener against the Minnesota Vikings, where he threw two interceptions, one of them being a pick-six, he's played much better. Over his last four games, New York's signal-caller has completed over 65 percent of his passes and has 952 passing yards with six touchdowns to just one interception.
That's a 99.3 passer rating. Now, with the Giants going up against one of the league's worst defenses, they could have another strong day at the office, especially if Jones keeps playing at a high level. From our chair, Jones should be in the Comeback Player of the Year conversation.
As already mentioned, the Bengals' defense is one of the worst in the NFL. They have given up over 1,000 passing yards in their first five games and have allowed over seven yards a throw against opposing quarterbacks. This presents a great opportunity for Jones to keep playing better and finally throw a touchdown pass at home - and it will come in a Giants victory.
