Patriots stripped of chance to stick it to the Giants in the best way possible
"The narrative surrounding the New England Patriots' 2025 season will continue into their Week 13 matchup on Monday Night Football, as they welcome the 2-10 New York Giants to Gillette Stadium for what most believe will be a dominant showing by the home team in a very winnable game. That was also the expectation going against the Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and Trey Hendrickson-less Bengals team this past weekend, only for the Patriots to sneak out with a win by just a field goal"
"They'll now shift their focus to the Giants, who have already fired their head coach and are trying to get back on track for the rest of the season. But the Patriots won't have the luxury of really sticking it to their longtime foes, as their loss to the Lions on Sunday officially eliminated them from the playoffs this season. That would've been something to remind us of the good days."
The New England Patriots will play the 2-10 New York Giants at Gillette Stadium on Monday Night Football. The Patriots edged the Bengals without key players to extend a nine-game winning streak. The Giants have already fired their head coach and hold a dismal record, including losses in every road game this season. New York squandered leads of 10 points or more multiple times and saw playoff hopes end. The Patriots were eliminated from playoff contention after a loss to the Lions. Both teams enter the matchup with different goals: New England seeks another win before a bye, while the Giants aim to salvage the remainder of the season.
