They were battered and bruised by a hard-hitting Patriots team, who proved why they’re the top seed in the the AFC. The Giants lost, 33-15, for their seventh consecutive loss and remained winless on the road this season

New defensive coordinator Charlie Bullen didn't have any answers as the Giants trailed 30-7 at halftime, their largest first-half deficit this season. According to the Associated Press, it’s the first time they allowed at least 30 points in a first half since Week 17 in 2009 to the Vikings.
