NEW YORK (26) d SAN FRANCISCO (3) The Headline: Giants keep rolling with a dominating road win The Story: So far this season, the 49ers have looked like the NFC’s best team with a suffocating defense and an efficient offense and in this game they were out for revenge against a Giants team that ended their season in heartbreaking fashion last year. For this game though, it was the defending Super Bowl champion Giants who looked like the best team in the NFL as they thoroughly outclassed the 49ers in their home stadium.
