The Giants Exposing Kirk Cousins?
The Giants could have some playoff magic to overcome an overrated QB in Kirk Cousins in Minnesota. New York has seen Kirk Cousins during his time in Washington and has somehow gotten an 84-million-dollar contract. Cousins, while he has his moments in the playoffs, also shows when the lights are bright, he’s not great. For the Giants to win is to limit Cousins’ ability to throw it to Justin Jefferson. If the Giants can shut down Jefferson and keep the game close, they can win this game. Along with shutting down the passing game, the Giants have an underrated defensive front with Dexter Lawrence leading them. Along with Lawrence is edge rushers Kayvon Thibodeaux and Azeez Ojulari to pressure Cousins.
