Giants vs Saints live updates, game score and highlights for NFL Week 6

EAST RUTHERFORD - The New York Giants are looking to stay undefeated at home against the 1-4 New Orleans Saints, and when you think about the make-up of this team, look no further back than last season for a reminder of how much has changed.

For the third consecutive week, the Giants' defense was on the field with the game on the line - three times at the end of regulation and again in overtime, desperately needing to make a stop or else.

Jevon Holland’s interception beat the Titans.

Deonte Banks’ interception beat the Cardinals.

And when does a tie feel like a win? Well, the Giants escaped Washington after a 27-27 tie last Sunday and somehow increased their first-place lead in the NFC East by a half-game. There is a reason the Giants believe, and his name is John Harbaugh, who has built a gritty team.

The Giants have faced three brutal-weather games in a row and are 2-0-1 in that stretch. The forecast is for sun in North Jersey, where the Giants are aiming to go to 4-0 at home for the first time since 2008.
