Tonight the former teammates who played collegiality at Duke are opposing each on the gridiron as the New York Giants, Kansas City Chiefs match up on Monday Night Football.

Where?

Kansas City Missouri!

The New York Giants who are a member of the NFC East come into the game with a record of 2-5 because they beat the Carolina Panthers who are a member of the NFC South in East Rutherford New Jersey last Sunday by a score of 25 -3!

In the New York Giants 25-3 win over the Carolina Panthers Daniel Jones did just about everything but snap the ball. He completed 23 of 33 passes for 203 yards, rushed for 28 yards on eight carries, and picked up his first career reception with a nifty one-handed catch for 16 yards on a pass thrown by Dante Pettis. The wide receiver also displayed his versatility, catching five passes for 39 yards, including a five-yard touchdown. Devontae Booker ran for a 19-yard touchdown and Graham Gano kicked field goals of 49, 53 and 44 yards. He tied his own franchise single season record with his fifth field goal of 50+ yards and set the career mark with his 10th in two years.

The New York Giants defense was outstanding in the Giants' 25-3 victory against the Carolina Panthers in MetLife Stadium. Carolina coach Matt Rhule was determined to run the football. But the Panthers rushed for only 56 yards on 17 carries, a 3.3-yard average. Leading rusher Chuba Hubbard was held to 28 yards on 12 attempts.

"We made an emphasis on running the football this week," Rhule said. "It didn't show up."

Not much did against the Giants' inspired defense. Carolina finished with only 117 passing yards, 173 total yards and 11 first downs. The Giants' defense sacked quarterbacks Sam Darnold and PJ Walker three times apiece. The unit also forced a safety when it pressured Darnold so fiercely in the second quarter he threw a pass from the end zone that was nowhere near an eligible receiver.

"This is big-time," lineman Leonard Williams, who had 1.5 sacks, said of the defense's performance. "As a unit, we kind of talked about putting the team on our back more and how our team is—what we think our team is built around the defense. We take pride in being a defensive team and you know so far this year we haven't really been stepping up to the plate and I think this was a really big game for us. We didn't allow any touchdowns and we're putting our offense in sombue good field position and we closed the game out like we wanted to."

The Kansas City Chiefs who are a member of the AFC West come into the game with a record of 3-4!

Why?

Because they blown out by the Tennessee Titans last Sunday by a score of 27-3!

In the Kansas City Chiefs 27-3 loss to the Tennessee Titans the Tennessee Titans jumped out to a quick lead and didn't look back on Sunday as they defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, 27-3, in a clash between AFC foes at Nissan Stadium.

Tennessee tallied points on each of its first five possessions while holding the Chiefs scoreless until early in the third quarter, controlling the game throughout before dealing Kansas City its fourth loss of the season.

Patrick Mahomes completed 20-of-35 passes for 206 yards and two interceptions in the game, marking his first regular-season game without a touchdown pass since midway through the 2019 campaign. Mahomes, who cleared concussion protocol after suffering a big hit late in the fourth quarter, discussed the performance following the game.
