Giants would clinch playoffs with win over skidding Colts

Associated Press  

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New York Giants aren’t treating the Indianapolis Colts like a team that has won four games all season and has lost eight of its last nine. With a playoff berth a win away, one might think the Giants would be salivating at the thought of playing one of the NFL’s weakest teams at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. “The last six games, they’ve been up at the end of the third quarter,” Daboll said. I know the record doesn’t say it but they are playing well.” Colts interim coach Jeff Saturday is looking for wins and complete performances in the final two games.
