STREAKS, STATS AND NOTES — The home team has won all 10 games in the series … The Giants need one win to reach 700 in their franchise history. … The Bengals have played fewer games against the Giants than against any other long-established NFL team. … New York’s defense allowed zero third-down conversions in nine tries in the Week 10 win over Philadelphia. … Also in that game, RB Wayne Gallman Jr. had a rushing TD in his fourth consecutive match, the first time a Giants player has done that since 2012. … Giants TE Evan Engram has caught a pass in 39 straight games. … New York K Graham Gano has four field goals of 50-plus yards this season. … Giants G Kevin Zeitler was a first-round draft pick by the Bengals in 2012 and played with the team through the ’16 season. … The Bengals lost rookie quarterback Joe Burrow to a knee injury last week in the loss to Washington. Either backup Ryan Finley or practice squad QB Brandon Allen is expected to start. Burrow was having a strong first NFL year. … Bengals RB Giovani Bernard is questionable for Sunday after dealing with a concussion. … Cincinnati WR A.J. Green has 14 catches for 153 yards in two games against the Giants. … Cincinnati’s Brandon Wilson is second in the NFL in kickoff returns of at least 40 yards (4). … Fantasy tip: Gallman has gained steam as the Giants’ go-to RB since Saquon Barkley was lost to a knee injury in Week 2.
