Kansas City Chiefs will take on New York Giants in Week 8

The reeling Kansas City Chiefs will host the struggling New York Giants at Arrowhead Stadium in Week 8's Monday Night clash. Neither team can afford to lose this game as their hopes of winning their respective divisions dangle by a thread.

The Chiefs suffered a blowout loss at the hands of the Tennessee Titans in what was arguably the worst performance of Patrick Mahomes' career. The quarterback finished with just 206 yards and an interception in his team's blowout loss.

The Giants are coming off an emphatic defensive display where they held the Carolina Panthers to just three points. The Giants' defense played hard and the result was evident during their win over the Panthers.

Both teams will be missing some key players in this contest, but whose loss is more significant? Check out the injury report and probable starting lineups for each other.
