Giants PFF grades: Best and worst performers from Week 6 loss vs. Bills

The shorthanded New York Giants fought and clawed on Sunday night, taking their game with the Buffalo Bills all the way down to the wire. And although they were ultimately sent home with a 14-9 loss, they showed some heart and guts.

Particularly on the defensive side of the ball, the Giants showed out. They held the high-powered Bills offense to zero points through three quarters and put the offense in position to win.
