Giants defense slams door on Bears in 22-16 win

NY (7-3) remains two games behind the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East. The Bears sink further into an very bad 2-8 on the year. Instead, the Bears treated this like a prototypical trap game-and throughout the first have, it was obvious the Giants weren’t up for the challenge against the banged up and beat-down squad from the Windy City. They have covered in each of the four wins in this current streak.

Chicago got to the NY 30 in the final two minutes but Jason Pierre-Paul had a 13-yard sack and Cutler was picked off by Collins, his fifth interception in the last four games.

“Just making a play”, Pierre Paul said of his strip/sack. “It wasn’t anything special”. With 2 TDs on the game, Eli continued his hot play with his elusiveness and buying enough time to extend the plays avoiding any sacks.

“We’ll take it as it comes”, Cruz said. The NFC East is tough.

Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio set something of a course when players noticed him already game-planning for the Giants during their return flight from Tampa.

“We got off the field, but still that could have gone for a touchdown”, Amos said. They’re some good players. Despite a back-and-forth affair, the Giants were able to walk away with yet another close victory, this time by the score of 22-16. He can throw the ball how many times he wants. Life was good following 30 minutes of football. Offensively, the Giants are putting up 20.2 points and 349.9 yards per game.

“We knew we had to take advantage of that opportunity”.

A bad loss that likely ends the small hopes of a playoff berth after that Vikings win isn’t about to stop McPhee or his creative rhetoric as the final seven games of the season lie ahead. “We did what we had to do and took care of it.”, Manning said. But we had chances at the end of the game. “I just missed out on it”, he said.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) – Jay Cutler described the Bears’ injury epidemic as “crazy”.

They are bold statements from a member of a team that is 2-7 on the season and just gave up a season-high in points on Sunday against the Buccaneers. The Giants, whose running game had its best showing last week, could be in line to add to their late-season surge with the big-bodied Goldman out of the lineup. For the second straight week, McAdoo has shown his confidence in his offense in not hesitating to leave his offense on the field for fourth-and-short plays.

Sunday’s matchup between the Chicago Bears and New York Giants features two teams that couldn’t be traveling faster in opposite directions.

Down 16-9 at the half, the Giants grabbed the lead in the third quarter, scoring on their first two possessions. He rushed for 72 yards on 12 carries in the first half while quarterback Jay Cutler completed 11 of 14 passes in the half for 126 yards and one touchdown.

Fourth-down conversions – The Giants responded to Chicago’s opening drive with one of their own, going 78 yards in 11 plays. Furthermore, he’s won the Bears games against Detroit and Minnesota. Adams and Leno both struggled and when Cutler did find time, his pass catchers let him down time and time again.

Tight end Zach Miller also left with a possible broken right foot.

The Bears racked up 194 yards of offense in their first three drives.

Bears rookie linebacker Leonard Floyd may have got a slow start to this season as he was forced to overcome a myriad of injuries, not to mention the growing pains that come with adjusting to the NFL.

Not to say that any game in the National Football League is an “easy game” but this is a game that the Giants should win.

The Giants hit the road for a 1 p.m. ET game against the Cleveland Browns.
