Will the Giants get the first pick, or are there too many moving parts?

The New York Giants season will finally, mercifully, be over after just three more games.

Despite the popular sentiment that the Giants’ season ended with Thanksgiving, their season isn’t over just yet. The Giants’ players are still playing for pride, while the coaching staff is making their case for continued employment. The Giants are also jockeying for position in the 2025 NFL Draft and hoping to keep their options open.

The elephant in the room is, of course, the quarterback position. We’ll have plenty of time...

The New York Giants will take on the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday afternoon and, as they’ve done for the past several weeks, will enter the game extremely shorthanded.

Head coach Brian Daboll informed reporters on Friday afternoon that several players who didn’t practice this week will be out in Week 16, including linebacker Bobby Okereke once again.

“Stinnie, Bobby, Patrick Johnson and probably Stro (won’t play),” he said. “We’ll see where he’s at.”

In better news, quarterback Tommy DeVito cleared concussion protocol, practiced on Friday, and will serve as the backup to Drew Lock on Sunday.

“He’s...

Rookie will make his first career start on Sunday?

The New York Giants face an Atlanta Falcons team with a different starting quarterback. Michael Penix Jr. will make his inaugural NFL start in Week 16 against the Giants after the benching of Kirk Cousins. New York passed on Penix Jr. in the first round and chose Malik Nabers at sixth overall. Atlanta selected the former Washington quarterback two picks later, which, at the time, was viewed as a shock.

This game could be another massive low point for Joe Schoen and the Giants. A great performance by Penix Jr., along...

Edge defender Brian Burns trending toward playing

Three members of the current New York Giants’ 53-man roster have been ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons:

• LG Aaron Stinnie (concussion)
• ILB Bobby Okereke (back)
• Edge Patrick Johnson (knee)

Quarterback Tommy DeVito has cleared the league’s concussion protocol and will be the backup for Drew Lock on Sunday.

Edge defender Brian Burns, who has 8.0 sacks and is within reach of the second double-digit sack season of his career, is trending toward playing despite being listed with ankle and neck injuries.

Cornerback Greg Stroman (shoulder/shin) was...

The College Football Playoffs begin tonight!

Good afternoon New York Giants fans!

Bowl season rolls on today with the StaffDNA Cure Bowl and the Union Home Mortgage Gasprilla Bowl.

The StaffDNA Cure Bowl will feature Jacksonville State vs. Ohio, while the Union Home Mortgage Gasprilla Bowl will see Tulane play Florida. I would definitely encourage everyone to watch both bowl games, particularly the game between Florida and Tulane. Gators’ QB D.J. Lagway won’t be draft eligible until 2027, but the true freshman is really impressive and we’ll be hearing a lot about him in the future.

The highlight of the...

The New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders are tied for the worst record in the NFL as we enter Week 16 of the 2024 season.

The Raiders are currently in line to select first overall in the 2025 NFL draft due to current tiebreakers. The Giants are set to draft second, should everything stay the same over the next three weeks.

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders believes that his son, Shedeur Sanders — who starred for him in Boulder and was a Heisman Trophy finalist this year — will be the first player taken in the upcoming NFL draft....

Neal’s play since being back in the lineup makes his future with the Giants even more interesting

Don’t look now, but out of the wreckage of the New York Giants’ 2024 season a bright spot is emerging. Evan Neal, the much-maligned No. 7 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, is playing like a real, honest-to-goodness NFL right tackle.

Neal had a miserable, injury-plagued first two seasons with the Giants. Fans have labeled the former Alabama star a “bust,” when they haven’t been calling him far worse things.

The Giants, though, still planned to have Neal be the starting right...

There are Giants fans who would agree with that sentiment

As the 2-12 New York Giants trudge toward the finish line of a miserable season one of the things they have to do before it ends is face the Michael Penix Jr.-led Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. So, this week’s ‘5 questions’ segment is with Tre’Shon Diaz of SB Nation’s The Falcoholic. Let’s get to it.

Ed: How would you describe the season so far for the Falcons? I would think there is some disappointment after a 6-3 start.

Tre’Shon: It’s just your standard run-of-the-mill season from the Atlanta Falcons....

The Atlanta Falcons (7-7) host the New York Giants (2-12) at Mercedes-Benz Stadium this Sunday in a game that the Falcons need to win to stay alive in the NFC Playoff picture.

Oddsmakers initially made Atlanta 10-point favorites. That number has been bet down to 8.5 points during the week. The over/under has held steady at 42 total points and the money line is currently Giants +350, Falcons -450.

For bettors, there’s money to be had in every game and this game is no different. If you don’t like the lines or the over/under, you can bet a few props,...
