New York Giants’ defense faces tall task in Minnesota Vikings offense

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ—The New York Giants will look to ride the momentum of their two-game winning streak this Sunday when they host the (2-2) Minnesota Vikings.

Although we’re only in October, this is a pivotal matchup that could have ramifications down the road in relation to tiebreakers if these teams are in the playoff hunt.

After struggling mightily in the first three games of the season, when they gave up a combined 94 points, the Giants defense put forth their best effort of the season last week. They suffocated the Washington Redskins offense, holding them to three points and 176 total yards while forcing four turnovers.
