Giants–Pats MNF Is Wild: Dart Returns, Pats Banged Up, Week 13 Picks
Send us a textGiants fans, this Monday Night Football matchup just got insane. Jaxson Dart is fully cleared from concussion protocol and will start under the lights, Kayvon Thibodeaux is officially out again, Dexter Lawrence is battling through that elbow injury, and the Patriots are somehow on a nine-game heater while losing yet another starting offensive lineman. We are going live to break down exactly how these injuries shift the trenches, how the matchup really plays now, and whether the Giants plus the points are a lot more live than Vegas wants you to think.Before we go further, drop your MNF pick in the comments — Giants with the points or Patriots to keep the streak alive? And make sure to subscribe so you never miss a Giants breakdown, game reaction, or live pick show.The Patriots injury report wipes out key pieces: starting LG Jared Wilson is out, special teams captain Brenden Schooler is out, and front-seven disruptors Harold Landry and Khyiris Tonga are questionable. Add that to a long list of Patriots already on IR — their LT, their NT, their starting DE, their top depth CB — and suddenly this “red-hot Patriots team” is showing real cracks.The Giants’ sheet tells a different story. Kayvon Thibodeaux is out, which hurts the pass rush, but nearly every core defender is trending toward playing: Deonte Banks, Paulson Adebo, Tyler Nubin, Dexter Lawrence, and DJ Davidson all logged enough work to expect them on the field. Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, and Jaxson Dart were all full participants, giving the Giants enough offensive firepower to make this a real game if pass protection holds up. The question is whether the Giants can generate any edge pressure without Thibodeaux, and whether Dart can stress a Patriots defense that has been forced deep into its rotation.After the full MNF breakdown, we’ll hit the entire Sunday slate. Dolphins-Saints has one of the weirdest totals and injury situations of the week, Texans-Colts might flip the AFC South if C.J. Stroud steals one on the road, and Falcons-Jets has sharp models screaming Over despite a total under 40. 49ers-Browns is shaping into a “Niners win, Browns cover” game with Myles Garrett chasing a sack record. Rams-Panthers remains one of the most lopsided spreads in the early window, Jaguars-Titans has that classic Vrabel home-dog energy, and Cardinals-Bucs is one of the cleanest “favorite + Over” profiles of the week.The late slate is chaos: Minnesota starting another rookie QB vs Seattle, Buffalo walking into Pittsburgh with two backup tackles, the Raiders changing OCs while being nearly double-digit dogs to the Chargers, and Bo Nix trying to keep Denver in the AFC 1-seed hunt on Sunday Night Football.It’s Week 13, the board is wild, and we’re breaking down every matchup so Giants fans know exactly where the real edges are across the league.Thank you for watching & for your support.
