Giants can Clinch Playoff Berth Today vs. Vikings

There is no Christmas gift that the New York Giants would like to deliever to their fans than the clubs first playoff berth in over six years.


 

All that stands in the way is the 11-3 Minnesota Vikings.

The Giants could clinch a playoff berth today if one of the three following scenarios play out:

1) Giants win + Washington losses to San Francisco and Detroit losses to Carolina.

OR

2) Giants win + Washington losses to San Francisco and Seattle losses to Kansas City.

OR

3) Giants win + Seattle and Detroit both lose.

In other words, it’s very, very possible.

Will it happen? 

It's going to be tough. The Giants are facing a Vikings team that is very good at home, and very, very good at coming back. Just look at the Vikes historic comeback vs. Indianapolis last week when it erased a 33-0 deficit and won 39-36 in overtime. 

The Giants defense, which is still battered in the secondary will face a still test against Justin Jefferson and crew. 

PREDICTION: Vikings 30 - GIANTS 27
