Both sides come into this after wins last week. The Giants had a good comeback victory over Tampa Bay and the Panthers managed to beat the New Orleans Saints. For the Giants, Eli Manning threw for over 500 yards but he also had three interceptions. The Giants are without Ahmed Bradshaw and Hakeem Nicks for this game and it may slow their offense a little. The Panthers also have a few key players who could miss out with injury. Jonathan Stewart and Steve Smith could miss the game. Carolina need to run the ball to be successful but even if Stewart does miss out, it will likely just increase the workload of Mike Tolbert, who is more than capable of putting up big numbers.
Prediction - This is a tough one to call. Both sides are better on offense than defense but both could be missing a few offensive starters. It really could go either way and I wouldn't be surprised if it was a blowout for either side or a close game but I'll go with a New York Giants victory.
