The New York Giants once again found enough ways to win a contested football game coming off their annual bye week.Despite putting up only seven points in the first half and allowing a season-high ****** pa sing yards to opposing quarterback Davis Mills, the Giants' fortitude returned in the final ****** minutes when they put up two more touchdowns and forced two turnovers in the red zone to hold down the Houston Texans and win, ****** . It took some time for the Giants to shake off the rust, but with that came their seventh win of the season and their best start to a year since ****** .As Houston exits the Meadowlands with the lo s, the next team to arrive at the Giants' doorstep for the latter half of their homestand is the Detroit Lions ****** . Sitting at the bottom of the NFC North for the fifth consecutive season, the Dan Campbell-led Lions return to MetLife Stadium for the first time since ****** and will square off with New York for the sixth time in the last decade.The last meeting between the two teams occurred in Week 8 of the ****** season, where things didnt end in the Giants' favor. Behind a ****** yard, three-touchdown display by former quarterback Matthew Stafford and ****** yard receiving day from Joe Musgrove Jersey current New York receiver Kenny Golladay, Detroit dominated the defense and won a ****** outcome to extend their series lead to ****** and handed the lowly Giants their sixth lo s of that season.Since that matchup at Ford Field three years ago, there have been some noticeable changes to the Lions offensive roster. In March ****** , former Pro Bowl quarterback Matthew Stafford was traded to the Los Angeles Rams following eleven seasons at the helm, including eight with over 4, ****** total pa sing yards and nine with at least ****** touchdowns. Coming with the Rams draft compensation was quarterback Jared Goff, whom Detroit immediately threw into the starting role and has accumulated ****** pa ses for 5, ****** yards, ****** touchdowns, and ****** interceptions in ****** starts.While they largely operated behind a committee of running backs in ****** , the Lions have finally developed a steady, respectable rushing attack with a duo of ball carriers in Jamaal Williams and DAndre Swift. The two players combined for ****** yards and ****** touchdowns in the first nine games, and the veteran Williams ranks top ****** among his position in total rushing attempts and touchdowns.Free agency and the trade market have seen several of Detroits top receivers depart for other organizations. Along with Golladays signing with the Giants in ****** Austin Meadows Jersey , the Lions lost fellow wideouts Marvin Hall, Marvin Jones, and Danny Amendola to new teams and retirement decisions. Two weeks ago, former tight end stud T.J. Hockenson was traded to the Minnesota Vikings, leaving a gaping hole at the position.On the other side of their departures, the Lions have unearthed a trio of productive pa s catchers in Amon-Ra St. Brown, Josh Reynolds, and Kalif Raymond. All three receivers have at least ****** receptions and ****** yards receiving in ****** , ensuring that they will be involved in the offensive game plan. The Lions are a team that likes to push the field so expect these players to be deployed in a deep attack.Despite all these changes to their roster, the Lions are a gritty football team and have established a competitive product over the last few weeks. On the heels of beating the Packers and Bears, the team ranks top ****** in total points ****** and yards ****** . They also average 5.9 yards per play and stand at ninth in the NFL in first downs collected.The aerial game is the le ser of two evils for an opposing secondary, but they know how to move the football and score in the red zone efficiently. Detroit ranks eighth in both pa sing yards ****** and touchdowns ****** , giving them an advantage over Richard Rodriguez Jersey the Giants' weaker receiving unit. If there is one problem for the Lions, its losing the pigskin, as they have seven interceptions on the season compared to New Yorks two.With Williams and Swift in the backfield, the Lions will look to pound the football if they cant find opportunities through the air, and they can wear out a defense similar to Saquon Barkley. The duo of backs has rushed close to the top ****** in attempts ****** , yards ****** , and average yards per rush ****** . They will also get into the endzone, posting the fourth-best touchdown total ****** among league rushing offenses.Last Sunday, the Giants were able to find enough plays to beat the Texans, as they have several opponents this season. However, it was clear their effort had its serious faults that needed to be fixed heading into Detroit and the oncoming stretch of the schedule.For a second week, the Lions are no pushover team that will attack the enemy offensively Dario Agrazal Jersey and put points on the board if the Giants are caught sleeping on their record. The good news for New York is the Lions defense ranks close to last in the league in many pa s and run defense categories, meaning it could be a feast for Big Blues offense if they stay clean and crisp on Sunday afternoon.It could be called a must-win affair, but head coach Brian Daboll doesnt believe heavily in those. Either way, the Giants have another winnable contest in front of them with Detroit, and it will come down to stifling another powerful backfield and forcing the ball into miscues in the air.Heading into Sundays game, lets take a deeper look at the playmakers on the Lions offense and what to watch for when they take the field.The Giants have been used to seeing Matthew Stafford quarterbacking the Detroit Lions offense whenever the two teams have squared off in the regular season. For the first time in a decade, that trend has been bucked by a new face taking over the pocket.After being drafted by the franchise in ****** and spending eleven seasons as their Pro Bowl gunslinger, the then ****** year-old Stafford was shipped from the Motor City to Los Angeles in March ****** in exchange for Rams quarterback Jared Goff Felipe Vazquez Jersey and draft compensation. Both parties were falling out of favor with their organizations, and the Rams felt Stafford was the upgrade needed to carry the team to a Super Bowl title and made a deal.While Stafford left for Hollywood and eventually captured his long-awaited title in Super Bowl ****** last season, the results were quite different for Goff. In five seasons leading the Rams offense, the former ****** first-round pick out of California appeared in ****** games and carried the team to four winning seasons and two NFC West titles. The bright lights of the playoffs were a different animal, as none of Goffs four 3,800+ yard pa sing campaigns could result in the leagues ultimate crown.Playing in ****** games during his debut season with the Lions, Goff took his completion percentage to its career-high of 67.2% while tallying 3, ****** pa sing yards, ****** touchdowns (lowest in five years), and eight interceptions (second-lowest single-season total) in the Anthony Lynn system. However, the Lions rode an inconsistent offens
