EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It has been a while since a raucous crowd at MetLife Stadium had the opportunity to influence a truly meaningful New York Giants game. And the lack of opportunities have not all been coronavirus pandemic-related.
A case can be made the last big-time Giants home game was on a Sunday night, Dec. 11, during the 2016 season when Odell Beckham Jr.'s 61-yard catch-and-run was the difference in a 10-7 win against the Dallas Cowboys.
New York went 11-5 then (including 7-1 at home) and hasn't had a winning season since.
