Giants lose to Saints as Browns move to top of AFC North

The Giants lost 34-27 to the Saints at home in Week 6, a setback after New York’s promising start to the season.

Quarterback Jameis Winston was replaced by J.J. McCarthy, who threw for 243 yards and a touchdown in the fourth quarter.

The change leaves coach John Harbaugh facing a choice over who starts at quarterback in the games ahead.

Running back Cam Skattebo played only six snaps and had no touches, adding to questions about the Giants’ offense.

Cleveland, meanwhile, won its fourth game to reach a 4-2 record and the top of the AFC North.

The Browns hold tiebreakers over the Steelers and Ravens, who also have 4-2 records, so Cleveland leads the division standings.

The Giants must decide their quarterback plan, while the Browns will try to maintain their position in a tightly contested division.
