Giants Face Falcons Amid Losing Streak

The Atlanta Falcons, currently at 7-7, are set to face the struggling New York Giants, who have lost nine straight games and sit at 2-12. Rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. will make his debut, marking the first time since 2008 that a first-round quarterback will start for Atlanta. Several milestones are within reach for key players; for instance, wide receiver London could surpass Mohamed Sanu for all-time receptions with just seven catches. Meanwhile, the Giants' defense, ranked poorly against the run, will face a significant challenge from the Falcons' running game led by Bijan Robinson. The Falcons are favored to win, but both teams are searching for answers as their seasons come to a close. This matchup presents an opportunity for Penix to showcase his abilities and perhaps prove the Giants wrong for passing on him during the draft.
