Giants Aim to Top Bucs on Monday Night Football | Preview
Game Preview - November 21, 2021
As the Giants visit Tampa for a Week 11 face-off on Monday Night Football, there is excitement brewing within the team’s locker room once again.
In 2019, Giants quarterback Daniel Jones entered Raymond James Stadium for the first start of his rookie season. In that game, Jones completed 23 passes for 336 yards and two touchdowns to go along with two rushing touchdowns in a 32-31 comeback win.
Last season, the Buccaneers came to MetLife Stadium flaunting their new quarterback, Tom Brady. The then six-time Super Bowl champion had his work cut out for three quarters, competing against a 12th ranked Giants defense. In the end, nothing could stop the classic fourth-quarter game-winning drives from Brady, and the Bucs narrowed out a 25-23 victory.
Now the Giants (3-6) return to Raymond James to play the defending Super Bowl champions, who boast the third-ranked offense behind Brady with an average of 416 yards of total offense per game.
My first game preview writing opportunity with SI and Giants Country came in Week 11 of the 2021 NFL season, with the New York Giants set to return from their bye fresh off a win to meet the defending champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
