New York Giants: Will Justin Tuck’s Prediction Come True?
By Nafisa H
The New York Giants are taking on the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football in NFL Week 4, but Justin Tuck has his thoughts on the matchup
As the New York Giants take on the Minnesota Vikings in a tough matchup, two-time Super Bowl Champion, former-Giants defensive end Justin Tuck partnered with former teammate Tiki Barber and his company Thuzio to hold R.U.S.H. For Literacy, an event benefitting his foundation.
Before the game kicked off, Justin Tuck gave his prediction on tonight’s game. While sitting down with Tuck, he predicted that the New York Giants would score at least one more point than the Minnesota Vikings. I think that’s a valid, realistic prediction.
And although we don’t see Tuck working as a NFL analyst these days, Barber put him on the spot further and asked him for his analysis of tonight’s game. Do the Giants even stand a chance on the road against the Vikings even given their recent history with the team?

Tuck thinks so. He believes that all of the money Jerry Reese and the team has spent on defense this offseason will pay off. The former Giant knows all too well that when you have a lot of new starters on the team that it takes time to build team chemistry and comradery. It will click eventually.
He’s not worried about his old quarterback Eli Manning either. Given that Eli plays well in domes and rebounds well after games in which he turns the ball over, such as last week’s loss against division rivalries in which he threw an interception with the game on the line in the 4th quarter.
According to Tuck, Ben McAdoo will never replace Tom Coughlin’s legacy, but he can earn the respect of fans and teammates and make his own by being the best version of himself and by simply winning.
Justin Tuck may not be an analyst but he gave an honest, thorough, and unbiased prediction of tonight’s game. Will it come true? You’ll have to stay tuned and see.
