Giants at crossroads with 6-5 record Eds: APNewsNow.

AP Photos EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) The New York Giants have reached a crossroads in their season after losing five of six games.

Following a 26-6 loss at Denver, the Giants are 6-5, with three NFC East opponents up next on the schedule, two at home.

But with New York having lost to nearly every winning team it has faced this season, a turnaround might not be within reach.

Defensive tackle Barry Cofield said Friday it was "good to know you have control over what happens" because the Cowboys and Eagles come to Giants Stadium, then New York is at Washington. A sweep of those games would make the Giants contenders again.
