The Associated Press EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.— Seven games into the season, the New York Giants are fading fast. The Giants’ offense had its second straight no-show performance in a 28-3 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday that showed them just how much they miss star running back Saquon Barkley.

It’s not just making the playoffs. With Fields, the Steelers are ranked 26th in total yards and 20th in scoring with an average of 20.7 points per game. That won’t cut it in a loaded AFC. The Steelers have been held to 20 points or less in ...
