The New York Giants will host the Chicago Bears on Sunday in a game that the Giants will be desperate to win to maintain the pressure on NFC East division leading Dallas Cowboys. The game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and takes place from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The game can be watched on TV on the Fox network or online through live stream via the link below.

The Giants come into today's game on 6-3, and are chasing the 8-1 Dallas Cowboys at the top of the NFC East. They will know they cannot allow anything to slip if they are to take advantage of any losses the Cowboys suffer in the coming weeks, which would potentially put the Giants back into contention.

However, more than that, over the coming month, the Playoff spots will start to be snapped up, and even if the Giants are not able to catch the Cowboys, they will need to maintain their good form if they are to claim one of the Wild Card spots in the NFC.

Their opposition today, the Chicago Bears, have won just two games all season long. They perhaps could have done better, but have allowed too many games to get away from them when they could have been more clinical and gained victories. That has badly damaged their season and undermined their good work.

But the Giants will surely know the Bears are more of a threat than their record shows, and they will need to be on their game to ensure they claim their seventh victory here today.

Earlier this week on Thursday Night Football the Carolina Panthers claimed a tight 23-20 victory over the New Orleans Saints.

The Panthers looked comfortable as the game wound down towards the end, but the Saints rallied and almost stole the win. However, they came up just short and their late game rally was ultimately in vain.

Carolina really need to sort out how they tackle the final quarter of games, and even though they managed to hang on against the Saints, their fourth quarter performances have undermined their season badly.

They entered the fourth quarter here with a healthy 23-3 lead, but allowed the Saints to pile on 17 unanswered points to move within a score of turning this game on its head. New Orleans even had the ball with an opportunity in the final seconds - that's how close the Panthers came to blowing things again.

However, the Panthers tackled receiver Michael Thomas at their 43 yard line as the clock ran out, and Carolina breathed a huge sigh of relief.
