NY Giants

This Sunday's game between the New York Giants and the New York Jets is a very intriguing matchup to say the least.

104.5 The Team's 'Intern Mike' Giarraputo took a hit last week on the 'The Drive with Charlie & Dan.' The Siena senior and NFL prognosticator lost 2 out of his 3 'Locks of the Week,' a weekly segment that appears on Thursdays.

Sunday will mark the one-month anniversary of the last touchdown scored by the offensive unit. This date is not one for celebration but certainly one for reflection.

The Giants have a must win game Sunday at home against Washington. Giants need to prove to the fans that this season can still be salvaged.

The New York Giants were one play away (twice) from beating the Buffalo Bills, and now, they may have a $40 million problem on their hands.

I have not given up on Giants head coach Brian Daboll and his ability to coach but he needs to start piecing together some wins.

As the NFL season rolls into Week 6, 'Intern Mike,' Giarraputo from 104.5 The Team's 'The Drive with Charlie & Dan,' comes into the Sunday slate with his chest puffed out and an impressive 15-9-1 record.

The big winner these days in sports wagering is the State of New York. In the gambling report released by state Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli on Wednesday, it revealed that the Empire State is far exceeding expected tax revenues from sports wagering. Sounds great? Well, there is a good side and a bad side to every story.

New York Giants' QB Daniel Jones has not been practicing this week, but even if he gets medically cleared, the Giants should bench him for a week to hit reset.

A video has gone viral showing NY Giants' RB Saquon Barkley defending his QB in a shouting match with Miami fans, and Barkley has since responded to the video.

After spending extra time this week in his NFL lab in Loudonville, 'Intern Mike' is putting that winning record on the line with this week's 'Hot Picks,' including doubling-down against Jalen Hurts. Here is 'Intern Mike' Giarraputo and his NFL 'Hot Picks' for Week 5:

To start, let's quote (courtesy of friend of 'The Drive with Charlie & Dan', Darryl Slater of nj.com) New York Giants offensive tackle, Evan Neal, “Why would a lion concern himself with the opinion of a sheep?...The person that’s commenting on my performance, what does he do? Flip hot dogs and hamburgers somewhere?”
