The New York Giants are coming off another bad loss, this time at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles. With their 28-3 defeat at the hands of their division rival, New York's next opponent does not get any easier as they will head to Pittsburgh and take on the Steelers on Monday Night Football.
At 2-5, if the Giants want any hope and go on an improbable run to make the playoffs, they will have to pull off a massive upset against a Steelers team that has a Top 10 defense and a quarterback in Russell Wilson who is coming off throwing for 264 yards and two touchdowns in his Steelers debut.

The Giants enter this Week 8 road game as underdogs
Once again, the Giants enter a regular season game as the underdog, which should not be a surprise. With the Steelers entering this contest as the home favorites, it's the 23rd straight game that the G-Men enter a regular game as the underdogs, with the Steelers being favored by 5.5 points. Pittsburgh is coming off a dominating 37-15 win over the New York Jets with the aforementioned Wilson making his Steelers debut after missing the first five games with a calf injury.
This will not be an easy task for Daniel Jones and the Giants, as they enter this difficult game with a record of 1-14 in primetime games with Jones as the starting quarterback. Can Jones and Big Blue's offense get into some sort of rhythm after scoring a combined 10 points over their last two games? We sure hope so.
