Today at 1:00 p.m. ET the sputtering New York Giants (5-8) will host a squad many consider to be the best in the NFL, the Seattle Seahawks (11-2) on Fox. Live stream the game here; Seahawks fans can catch the action on Kiro 97.3, while Giants fans can hear the matchup on 101.9 WFAN FM.
The Seahawks had a lengthy winning streak snapped by their NFC West rivals, the San Francisco 49ers last week which postponed a division title celebration. "It's disappointing but we've still got three games left and we've got the possibility of doing it (against the Giants)," linebacker Bobby Wagner said. "So we've just got to keep our heads up."
The Seahawks can clinch an NFC West title today with a victory and a San Fran loss. "We had our chance and we let the opportunity get away," coach Pete Carroll said after the Niners loss. "So we crank it up. It's really important, as we have throughout regardless of what the game is before, you have to handle it properly and put it in the right perspective and move forward effectively."
The Giants have no postseason hopes to play for, a fact that has disappointed Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz. It's definitely a little disappointing," Cruz said. "Obviously you want to go and have a good season and put some good things together and hope you can make it through the playoffs and all of those good things."
Veteran coach Tom Coughlin still believes Big Blue will give their best effort each week, even though the playoffs are out of reach.
"We didn't play well (against the Chargers), but that's not going to change the way in which we approach each game and, yes, we're excited to host this outstanding Seahawk team and to prepare for them," Coughlin said. "It is no doubt a tremendous gauge for our team or for any team playing against a team that has the record and has accomplished what the Seahawks have."
