When the Giants return from their bye, they will have six games left.
"And we're going to try and win them all,'' general manager Jerry Reese said Monday. "We have some battle scars from the first 10 games, and we're hoping that makes us battle-hardened and will be a benefit for us going down the stretch.''
The latest of those scars came Sunday in a one-point, next-to-last-second loss to the Patriots. It was the fourth game the Giants lost in which they held a late lead, and those defeats have been decided by a combined nine points.
