NFL Power Rankings Week 16 2022, Minnesota Vikings VS New York Giants

Minnesota Vikings Form

The Minnesota Vikings improved their regular season record to 11-3 last week by beating the Indianapolis Colts 39-36. They’ve gone 8-2 in their past ten matches and 4-1 in the last five at home.

The Minnesota Vikings boast one of the league’s most improved offensive lines, going from 25.0 points per game last season to 25.1 points to rank eighth this year. The art of defending isn’t something the Minnesota Vikings excel in though. By allowing 24.9 points per game, their defense has been below average compared to the rest of the league this year.

The Minnesota Vikings have clinched a playoff berth after winning their division. The NFC North champions now aim to improve their second seed in the NFC Conference going into the final weeks of the regular season.

New York Giants Form

The New York Giants overcame long odds to beat the Washington Commanders 20-12 last week to improve their past 10-game record to 5-4. They are also 3-2 in their last five on the road.

The New York Giants will bring a middle-of-the-park offense for their latest game on the road, having scored 20.5 points per game this season. On the other side of the ball, the defense has been poor recently. The visitors have given up 27.8 points in the previous five outings, which is more than the 22.3 points they’ve allowed per game over the course of the regular season.

2021 was a year of doom and gloom for the New York Giants. A 4-13 record left the away team fourth in the NFC East and out of the playoffs. However, they entered this season billed as an early postseason threat, and judging by their 8-5 start this time around, they’re on target to do just that.
