The New York Giants will be going on the road after a 10-day rest to Western New York to visit the upstart Buffalo Bills in Week 4. The Giants will be looking to even their record up at 2-2 on the season, while the Bills will be looking to continue cementing their status as AFC playoff contenders.

The Giants have no one to blame but themselves for their 1-2 record, as they could easily be 3-0. Poor clock management and late game execution have done in the Giants, but they were able to pull out a victory Week 3 against the Washington Redskins on Thursday night football. The Bills, on the other hand, have been running roughshod on all of their opponents not named the New England Patriots, as they blew out the Miami Dolphins in Week 3.

This will be an entertaining game, as both teams are clicking offensively. Eli Manning has the Giants offense humming rather nicely despite Victor Cruz’s absence. Odell Beckham Jr. has been a monster once again this season, and Rueben Randle finally got involved in the offense against the Redskins. Also, Shane Vereen has been as good as advertised in the passing game as a safety valve for Manning out of the backfield. With Cruz sidelined indefinitely again with his calf injury, look for those three to be in for a lot of work once again against the Bills.

The Bills won’t be lacking for playmaking either offensively. Tyrod Taylor has surprised a ton of people so far this season, as he has looked poised and confident in the pocket. He is fourth in the NFL in completion percentage (74.4) sixth in touchdowns (seven) and third in yards per completion (9.15). He is also as dangerous with his legs as with his arm, as he averages 5.6 yards per carry, gaining 96 yards in three games on 17 attempts.

With the success both quarterbacks have had this season, this came could turn into an aerial assault, as the Giants and Bills rank last and second to last respectively in defending the pass thus far this season. Las Vegas is aware of this, as this contest has one of the higher over/under totals of Week 4.

It will be a nice fall day when the Giants and Bills kickoff, as they will avoid any of the potential inclement weather from Hurricane Joaquin going up the east coast. This game isn’t getting a top announcing team, but Albert and Johnston are solid as there is a big drop off after them for FOX announcing crews.
