The New York Giants may be playing at home Sunday, but the experts are forecasting a 3.5-point defeat. They will square off against the San Francisco 49ers at 1 p.m. ET at MetLife Stadium. San Francisco will be strutting in after a win while the Giants will be stumbling in from a loss.
New York didn’t finish too far behind, but the squad still lost 17-13 to the Chicago Bears last week. One thing holding New York back was the mediocre play of QB Daniel Jones, who did not have his best game: besides failing to produce a single touchdown, he threw one interception and fumbled the ball once.
The New York defensive unit accumulated four sacks for a loss of 21 yards. It was a group effort with four picking up one sack apiece.
Meanwhile, while not quite a landslide, the matchup between the 49ers and the New York Jets last week was still a pretty decisive one as San Francisco wrapped it up with a 31-13 victory on the road. RB Raheem Mostert and RB Jerick McKinnon were among the main playmakers for San Francisco as the former punched in one rushing touchdown and the latter punched in one rushing touchdown. That touchdown — an 80-yard rush in the first quarter — was one of the highlights of the contest.
The Giants didn’t have too much breathing room in their game with San Francisco when the teams previously met two seasons ago, but they still walked away with a 27-23 win. Will New York repeat their success, or does San Francisco have a better game plan this time around? We’ll find out soon enough.
