The New York Giants enter a Week 15 matchup that is suddenly pivotal for their slim playoff hopes. At 5-8, they’re still not quite in the hunt for the NFC playoffs considering that they currently rank 12th in the conference. Still, the New Orleans Saints are one of the teams above them, even if it’s only one slot. A loss in this game would all but end the Giants’ chances, while a win would buoy them a step closer to an improbable ride. Of course, two matchups with the Philadelphia Eagles loom like austere omens overhead, but New York would be grateful to even get there still alive.
