6 reasons why the Vikings will beat the Giants in Week 5

New York’s defense is terrible

Judging from last week’s win over the Redskins in which they only gave up three points and forced four turnovers, some might think that the Giants’ defense is actually decent. But this couldn’t be further from the truth.

In New York’s other three games this season, they’ve given up an average of 31.3 points and 345.3 yards to their opponents. The Giants’ defense only managed to come up with one turnover in these three matchups as well.

Even with a semi-decent job last week, New York is still giving up more yards per pass completion than any other team in the NFL this season.

The Vikings’ offense has struggled at times this year, especially in their two road games. But it’s incredibly hard to believe that they will have a difficult time scoring points and gaining yards against the Giants on Sunday.
