Gillette Stadium
12.08.2022, 02:00
The New York Giants play at Gillette Stadium this Friday, where the New England Patriots are starting their 2022 preseason. From 2001–2003, the teams met three times in the first game of the preseason. In 2005, they started meeting again in the last game of the preseason. The New England Patriots will play the New York Giants in their 31st and 17th preseason game (not including the 2020 season when preseason was canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic). The Patriots and Giants won't play each other in the final preseason game as they have for the past 16 years, but they will play each other to start the preseason.

One can not forget about the Patriots' linebacker position, which needs help now that Josh McDaniels is no longer in charge of the offense. The position has changed this offseason greatly because Donta Hightower, Kyle Van Noy, and Jamie Collins all left. Because of this, it is expected that Ja'Whaun Bentley will take over as the starting middle linebacker, where there isn't much competition. Cameron McGrone has been working with the scout team, and Jahlani Tavai has been dealing with an injury to his right leg. On Monday, both of them went back to practice. Even though neither player makes me feel confident right now, Bill Belichick may see value in adding Smith because of his age and skill set.
New York Giants - Big Blue look set to get a win against a difficult opponent
The New York Giants are excited about the upcoming season because they have improved their team in many ways. Now that veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor has joined the team, they have a strong backup quarterback. Daniel Jones hasn't done too well in the NFL in his first three years there. After Chicago bought the Giants' 11th-round pick in the 2021 draft, the Giants had two first-round picks this year. Thibodeaux and Neal will start for the Giants on the first day of the season. The players have had a lot to say at training camp about Thibodeaux. He gives the Giants everything they want and more. Since a long time ago, the New York Giants haven't had a strong and consistent pass rush. Nobody has been able to do it so far. Neal, who used to play for Alabama, is expected to help the right tackle on the offensive line, which has been a big problem for Big Blue. The Patriots game on Thursday will be a good test for him because he has had trouble getting used to how fast NFL pass rushers are. Wan'Dale Robinson, who is from Kentucky, was picked in the draft's second round. He has done great for the Giants during training camp and the preseason. Robinson is expected to help the other players who make plays for New York.
Expert Betting Tips
The Giants couldn't do better than their 6-10 season in 2020. Instead, they went 4-13 and finished last in the NFC East. New York only won one divisional game (November 28 versus Philly). It was Joe Judge's second and last season as head coach. The Giants will start a new part of their story in 2022. This will be their first season with head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen working together. The team got almost all new players, including Kayvon Thibodeaux and Evan Neal, who were picked in the first round. Last year, the Patriots had a better season than the year before, but it still didn't end well. Overall, New England finished with a 10-7 record and second place in its division. However, in the Wild Card Playoffs, they lost to the rival Bills 47-17.
