game 10<br />
giants at bengals<br />
NOVEMBER 11, 2012<br />
bengals 31, GIANTS 13<br />
With the bye week looming ahead, the <strong>Giants</strong> lost their second straight game, as they fell<br />
to the Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium by a score of 31-13. With the loss, the <strong>Giants</strong> fell to<br />
6-4 on the season and 0-2 in November after going 4-0 in October.<br />
It was a very sloppy game for the <strong>Giants</strong> overall, as they turned the ball over four times,<br />
allowed four sacks, and constantly allowed the Bengals’ offense to start their drives with<br />
short fields. The <strong>Giants</strong> gave up touchdowns on consecutive drives in the first quarter of<br />
the game, as wide receivers A.J. Green and Andrew Hawkins scored on receptions of 56<br />
and 11 yards from quarterback Andy Dalton. The <strong>Giants</strong> had several chances to trim the<br />
deficit, which grew to as many as 25 points, but various mistakes halted many drives that<br />
had promise.<br />
Despite losing by 18 points and only reaching the end zone once, the <strong>Giants</strong> actually<br />
ended the game with more total yards than the Bengals (318-275). Eli Manning completed<br />
29 of 46 passes for 215 yards and two interceptions. Hakeem Nicks hauled in nine<br />
receptions for 75 yards. Prince Amukamara led the team in tackles with 10, while Chase<br />
Blackburn and Michael Boley had eight and seven, respectively.<br />
For the third straight game, Andre Brown was the only Giant to account for an offensive<br />
touchdown.<br />
