NFL Power Rankings, Week 12: Chiefs and Patriots rising, Packers fall
Plays on Monday Night Football vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
With five straight losses heading into their Monday Night Football matchup against the Buccaneers, the Giants are the coldest team in the NFL.
This franchise has not gotten nearly enough guff for passing on Justin Fields and Mac Jones.
How ironic for GM Dave Gettleman, who had literally never traded a pick before, to miss out on possible franchise QBs in his first draft day deal?
What does the future hold for the Giants? Do they have a shot against the Buccaneers on Monday night?
The Chicago Bears have lost two absolute heartbreakers in a row.
On Sunday Night Football in Week 11, the Bears came back only to get beat by the Pittsburgh Steelers on a late drive and after some questionable calls by the officials.
In Week 12 action, the Bears had a golden opportunity against the Baltimore Ravens after Lamar Jackson was a late scratch in this game due to illness.
Even with no Jackson, the Bears’ offense couldn’t do enough in this game. Rookie quarterback Justin Fields also had to leave this game after throwing just 11 passes, and he didn’t come back.
Andy Dalton threw a pair of touchdown passes in relief, but more lapses in end-of-game situations cost the Bears a shot at winning a game Matt Nagy’s crew desperately needed.
