3-win Giants in the playoff hunt, now face flailing Bengals

The New York Giants have an unimpressive 3-7 record but remain in the thick of the playoff race in the moribund NFC East. They'll have a chance to gain another game in the standings on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals (2-7-1), who lost rookie quarterback Joe Burrow to a season-ending knee injury in last week's loss to Washington. Before a bye week the Giants beat divisional foes Philadelphia and Washington after starting the season with five straight losses. The Bengals have dealt with other major injuries and let a string of close games slip away. They'll likely struggle without Burrow.
