Week 12: NY Giants vs. New England Patriots on Sunday, Nov. 26
If you’re looking for any smack talk ahead of his matchup for your friends in Massachusetts, just remind them of the two Super Bowl wins led by Eli Manning over Tom Brady. While this matchup doesn’t have the same kind of build-up, it’s always fun whenever the G-Men and Pats go to battle.
Things sure have gone downhill for Bill Belichick ever since Brady left town. Mac Jones has not lived up to the hype, as the former first-round pick has been a bit of a bust. Pats fans have grown frustrated with him and things are only going to get worse for him when Jones out-performs him. Jones won’t be able to hang tight with Danny Dimes.
Prediction: Giants 31, Patriots 21
Week 14: NY Giants vs. Green Bay Packers for Monday Night Football
With the Giants on a bye for Week 13, there will be some Monday Night Football action on Dec. 11 on the way for Week 14. While it’s hard to call this one a ‘trap game’ for the Giants, it’s easy to overlook Green Bay now that Rodgers is no longer the starting signal-caller. However, we’re not going to sleep on Jordan Love and Christian Watson. Aaron Jones, when healthy, is one of the most dynamic RBs in the game as well.
The Packers are going to be motivated to surprise a lot of their haters in 2023. Remember when the Lions rolled into East Rutherford last season and handed the Giants a stunning defeat? Unfortunately, we think the Packers will do the same this time around. We hope we’re wrong in this case.
Prediction: Packers 24, Giants 17
