Catch up with each team's moves, where they stand, and, most importantly, how to beat them.
Several years of Kirk Cousins drama finally led to the polarizing quarterback's move to Atlanta. Widely envisioned to take his place is J.J. McCarthy, the former Michigan quarterback who was reportedly on the Giants' radar but who the Giants passed on in the first round for receiver Malik Nabers. The Vikings exchanged experience for mixed-bag veteran potential on defense, bidding farewell to established pass rushers like Danielle Hunter and D.J. Wonnum in favor of former Houston Texans Blake Cashman and Jonathan Greenard. Minnesota also traded back into the opening round to get Alabama standout Dallas Turner.
In one of the most dominant efforts in NFL postseason history, the Giants dealt a 41-0 shellacking to the Vikings, clinching a ticket to Super Bowl XXXV in Tampa. As if the lopsided scoreboard wasn't punishing enough, New York limited Minnesota to 114 yards and nine first downs. If McCarthy goes, he will become the first quarterback to make his professional debut against the Giants since Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys in 2016. If he beats the Giants, he will become the first first-rounder to do so since Doug Williams of Tampa Bay in 1978.
