New York Giants. 5. team. 31. New York snaps the Lions five game win-streak thanks to a fourth quarter touchdown catch by Odell Beckham Jr. Credit should ultimately go to the defense, which held Matthew Stafford without a touchdown, and less than 300 passing yards with the injured finger. Zach Zenner’s fumble in the end zone was all the difference however, shining a light on how badly the Lions need to find a long-term solution at running back. New York now sits in position to take the second seed in the playoff race, and could still snag the division title away from Dallas. <p>Next Week: The Giants have a short week with the Eagles on Thursday Night Football. With the Eagles looking to play spoiler, the Giants need to play smart when they enter hostile territory on the road. Odell Beckham Jr. should have a monster game considering the Eagles cornerbacks are among the weakest in the league, and are susceptible to big plays.</p> <p>Playoff hopes: New York is looking to snag a wild card spot, and develop into the perennial playoff threat they’re known for being. With the opportunity to win the majority of their division games, the Giants must pull off the season sweep of Philadelphia.</p>. 10-4. Previous:
