The first half of the season has certainly been rough for the New York Giants. Between their own poor play, some missed opportunities, and a hospital full of injuries, the Giants can only claim a 2-6 record in Week 9.
This week, the Giants will host the 5-2 Las Vegas Raiders at home. While an east coast team hosting a west coast team at 1 p.m. usually has the advantage, this week the Giants are playing on a short week while the Raiders are coming off of a bye week.
The Giants’ offense has flashed over the course of the 2021 season, but those injuries and inconsistencies have kept them from sustaining those flashes.
