The Cowboys' season never seemed to get off of the launch pad. It took the team 13 weeks to finally get over.500 for the first time. The three-game win streak, capped by a Thanksgiving Day win over Kansas City, put Dallas at 6-5-1 and gave the franchise hope for the playoffs. The three-game losing streak that followed ended the playoff hopes. Sunday's loss to the Giants sealed the Cowboys' fate of suffering a second-straight losing year.

Following their decisions to shelve Brock Bowers and Maxx Crosby, the Raiders secured the No. 1 overall pick. After entering Week 17 in that slot, the Giants - as they did in 2024 - slipped out of the top two thanks to a late-season win. Big Blue's victories over the Raiders and Cowboys dropped them to No. 5, with today's win allowing the Jets, Cardinals and Titans to leapfrog them.

Kliff Kingsbury expertly dodged questions about the future during his final media appearance of the 2025 season this week.

The second-year tight end was shown on the scoreboard sitting courtside during the game, smiling and waving to the camera. He later reposted a picture taken and posted on social media by a New York Post reporter and responded, "I am not sick." The Giants said that Johnson is dealing with a non-contagious infection, not the flu or COVID, where being around other people would not be a risk.

Malik Davis (calf/eye) was a DNP today, as was Javonte Williams (shoulder/neck). Rookie cornerback Shavon Revel (concussion/neck) was still absent from practice and labeled as a DNP for a second consecutive day. T.J. Bass (knee) also missed practice again. DeMarvion Overshown (concussion) was again limited today. Tyler Smith (knee) was upgraded to full participation today. Tyler Booker (ankle), Ryan Flournoy (knee), and Quinnen Williams (neck) were also full participants on Thursday.

This is Manning's second year on the ballot, where he brings a resume that should ultimately land him in Canton, regardless of the discourse about whether or not he deserves to be in the Hall. He is the Giants' all-time leader with 57,023 passing yards, which ranks 11th in NFL history between Hall of Famers Dan Marino and John Elway, and 366 touchdowns amassed over a 16-year career.

The New York Giants and the Las Vegas Raiders matchup in Week 17 features a pair of franchises looking to snap an extended losing streaks. While NFL teams are in the business of winning games, a victory doesn't do a lot for either of these franchises with two games remaining in 2025. Both squads have their eyes fixed on the 2026 NFL Draft where they will get the opportunity to add a high-end talent to their squads. New York has lost nine consecutive contests, but six of those contests were one-score final scores.

***Once upon a time in the annals of New York National League baseball, Leo Durocher, then managing the Giants, pushed owner Horace Stoneham to purge his roster of its beloved mainstays for what Leo saw as a very practical reason: "It ain't my kind of team." If Leo had to wait around for balls to fly out of the Polo Grounds, there wasn't much managing for him to do. Soon after his midseason hiring in 1948, the transformation was on.

A significant number of NFL fans fell for a fake report about New York Giants rookie Abdul Carter from a known parody account. Ahead of Monday night's game between the Giants and the New England Patriots, self-proclaimed insider Wesley Steinberg claimedthat Carter would be benched for the Giants' first defensive drive because he was caught watching porn in a team meeting when his headphones disconnected.

Olszewski was returning a kickoff late in the first half when he was first spun sideways by Marte Mapu, leaving him exposed to be hit by Elliss. There was no penalty because Olszewski was a ball carrier. Olszewski fumbled on the play and it was recovered by the Patriots. The hit was seemingly hard enough that it chipped the paint off his helmet decal.

"I loved my time there," DeVito told Guregian of facing the Giants. "When I was there, it was, 'Go Giants' but now it's 'Go Pats' all the way. I hope we blow them out."

Perhaps this latest fourth-quarter giveaway will be what the New York Giants need to see to fire defensive coordinator Shane Bowen. For a fifth time this season, Big Blue (2-10) lost a game in which they were leading in the final frame, which is the most in the NFL, after Jake Barnes' 59-yard field goal with 28 seconds left in regulation drew the Detroit Lions level at 27 apiece.

Skattebo, fellow rookie linebacker Abdul Carter and a bunch of other Giants teammates got into it with Judgment Day (Finn Bálor, JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio) ringside at Madison Square Garden on a night when legend John Cena was making his final appearance on Raw. Naturally, comedian Andrew Schulz was part of the fake melee, too. In the ultimate New York show, Skattebo was seated ringside wearing a New York Rangers jersey. Defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris rocked a New York Yankees jersey. Carter seemed to have a New York Giants belt draped over his shoulder as he threw haymakers.

There is a reason why New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt's role has dwindled to almost nothing over his three professional seasons. It was never more obvious than on Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium with Jameis Winston and Big Blue's offense 14 yards from punching in a game-tying touchdown against the favored Green Bay Packers. On a 3rd-&-6 with 40 seconds to go, Winston had enough time in the pocket thanks to the brilliant work from New York's offensive line to look for Hyatt, who had two catches for 17 yards on the day after posting just three catches for 18 yards over the first 10 games of the season.

Among the regularly scheduled encounters on Sunday, the Buffalo Bills faced the Tama Bay Buccaneers in a crucial clash, the Minnesota Vikings were in action against the Chicago Bears, and the Cincinnati Bengals were back from their bye week to face the Pittsburgh Steelers. Elsewhere New York Giants took on the Green Bay Packers, the Tennessee Titans faced the Houston Texans, and the Jacksonville Jaguars played the Los Angeles Chargers.
