The New England Patriots did not exactly enjoy a weekend off, but they were able to watch the action unfold from afar before their Monday night matchup with the New York Giants. What they saw was the race for the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff picture remaining highly contested: thanks to a 27-26 overtime win, the Denver Broncos are now in the top spot again, meaning that the Patriots will need to win to regain the upper hand heading into their bye week.
In order to do so, they will have to beat a Giants team that has won only two games so far this season and already fired its head coach. That said, New York fields plenty of talent on both sides of the ball and will undoubtably pose a challenge to Mike Vrabel’s 10-2 squad.
So, with that said, let’s take a look at our head-to-head comparis
