The Detroit Lions (3-6) take on the New York Giants (7-2) in a pretty big game for both teams. While the Lions are technically “In The Hunt” for an NFC Wild Card spot, this game means more symbolically. They’re on a two-game winning streak, but those two teams are a combined 7-14. A win over the Giants—especially on the road—would go a long ways in proving their legitimacy.
For the Giants, this is a critical week to avoid a slip-up. Some New Yorkers may be looking ahead to Thanksgiving, where the Giants have a huge divisional matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
