NFL Power Rankings: 49ers Losing Streak Ties a Franchise Record Entering Week 12
By Peter Panacy
The New York Giants should feel pretty good about their efforts against a lowly Bears squad in Week 11, for it was the G-Men’s defensive efforts which ensured the 22-16 victory.
Quarterback Eli Manning was very workmanlike, completing 21 of his 36 passes for 227 yards and two touchdowns. And while no Giants receiver surpassed 50 yards receiving, the offensive production was good enough to ensure New York’s five-game winning streak would continue into Week 12.
The Giants defense got to Bears quarterback Jay Cutler four times and only allowed 315 yards of total offense.
New York is still in the hunt for the NFC East crown, and a winnable game against the Cleveland Browns in Week 12 awaits them.
