1. Patriots at Giants for Sunday Night Football

I know everyone expected me to say Jets at Giants to wrap things up, but what I really want to see is Patriots at Giants. The Joe Judge revenge game!

All kidding aside, you know the league is salivating over this Patriots at Giants matchup. These two teams have so much history. The Giants shocked the undefeated Patriots in Super Bowl XLII and then beat them again four years later, in Super Bowl XLVI. Those two games made Eli Manning a New York legend and a surefire Hall of Famer.

Bill Belichick was a defensive assistant with the Giants for 12 seasons, including six seasons as defensive coordinator. He won two Super Bowls with the Giants and molded Lawrence Taylor into the best defensive player of all time. By the way, Daboll is from the Belichick coaching tree, and won five Super Bowls as a Belichick assistant in New England.

We also get the battle of the Jones'. Mac Jones will square of against Daniel Jones. This has the makings to be a fun showdown in East Rutherford. If the NFL is looking for an intriguing matchup for SNF midway through the season, Giants vs. Pats would surely do the trick.
