The New York Giants are heading into NFL Week 13 action with a game against the New York Jets on the schedule. What are the five biggest rumors surrounding the Giants heading into this week's game?
1. Can the Giants Get Their Ground Game Rolling?
There are so many running backs fighting for playing time with the Giants this season, which has hurt their chemistry at times. Getting the ground game rolling is extremely important this week for the Giants. Whether they can figure out how to make that happen is a big question mark for the Giants moving forward.
2. Will Eli Manning Rebound After a Depressing Week?
New York lost last week and Eli Manning was a big reason for that loss. He threw three interceptions and didn't look anything like the franchise quarterback that he had looked like at times this season. Manning has to get back to that point this week to knock off the Jets and it will be interesting to see what kind of game he ends up having.
3. Can the Defense Step Up and Consistently Get Stops?
One of the big question marks for the Giants is whether or not their defense is up for a challenge. That will be shown this weekend, as the Jets have a very talented offense. If the Giants want to pull out the in-state rivalry win, they have to figure out a way to stop the Jets' offense and their defense must step up.
4. Is Odell Beckham Jr. the Best WR in the NFL?
There is a battle for the title of being the best wide receiver in the NFL and Odell Beckham Jr. is one of the candidates. He has another chance to prove that he belongs in that spot this week against a tough Jets' secondary. Beckham Jr. is without question one of the best playmakers in football and that will be shown once again this week.
5. Are the New York Giants the Front-Runners to Win the NFC East?
Coming into this week's game, the Giants are currently tied for the NFC East divison lead with the Washington Redskins. Winning this game would help prove once again that they are indeed the best team in the division. New York cannot afford to drop to 5-7 on the season, which makes this game even more important for them.
