Posted on November 19, 2013 at 01:50 PM.

This week the NFC East leading New York Giants head to CenturyLink Field to take on the Seattle Seahawks in a huge showdown of NFC powers. The Giants are in a fight for home-field advantage, while Seattle who is only a game back is still fighting for a division championship, and an outside shot at a bye as well.

Game Notes
The Giants lead the all-time series against the Seahawks 9-7, However Seattle has won the last two meetings against the Giants both on the road. This is the Giants first trip to CenturyLink Field since 2010 when they drubbed the Seahawks 41-7.


Players to Watch:

Offense:

Victor Cruz - WR: The former undrafted free agent has become one of the best receivers in the league. Sherman and the rest of the Legion of Boom need to be focused if they dont want to see a salsa dance at the CLink on Sunday.

Defense:

Jason Pierre-Paul - DE: Unlike Cruz, JPP was a first round pick with high expectations that he has been able to live up to, making him one of the most dynamic, and athletic pass rushers in the league.

Prediction: The Seahawks seem to have gained their footing and are playing some great football right now, however I think the Giants are a slightly better football team, and unlike past seasons, we've seen teams go into CenturyLink and beat the Seahawks in high profile match-ups this year. I think Seattle gets New York's best shot on Sunday, and unfortunately I feel their best shot is slightly better than the Hawks'.
