The New York Giants Defense Facing Divisional Rival In Week 13
4 hours agoNew York Giants defense heads into the Week 13 Thanksgiving matchup against the Dallas Cowboys aiming to bounce back after a rough Week 12, allowing 30 points to Tampa Bay. The Giants have been strong against the pass, ranking 7th in the NFL with 194.2 passing yards allowed per game and 5th in sacks (36), which could challenge Dallas' 8th-ranked passing offense (240.6 yards per game). However, their 30th-ranked run defense (147.9 rushing yards allowed per game) is a glaring weakness, though it aligns well against Dallas' league-worst rushing offense (82.5 yards per game). With the Cowboys averaging just 20.1 points per game (22nd), the Giants' 11th-ranked red-zone defense (51.5% TD rate) could make them a viable fantasy option in deeper leagues.
