14. New York Giants (4-3)

The New York Giants may be 4-3 but they sure don’t look like a 4-3 team.  You have to give them this, aside from the Vikings game where they lost 24-10, they’ve been in every contest.

They handed the Cowboys their only loss of the season on opening weekend but since then have not won a game by more than four points.  They last played in week seven in London where they squeaked by the Rams 17-10.

It hasn’t been the year many had expected from receiver Odell Beckham, however as of late he’s been much more involved.  He just needs to learn to control his temper and his actions.  It could eventually cost them down the line.

That being said, the Giants do play the next three games at home.  They face the Eagles, Bengals, and Bears.  If they win all three, they pose a serous threat to the Cowboys in the NFC East.
