NFL Week 7 winners and losers: Cam Skattebo, J.J. McCarthy lift Giants; Aaron Glenn's seat heats up

Week 7 of the NFL season brought contrasting fortunes to the two New York franchises. The Giants climbed to the summit of the NFC East behind strong performances from running back Cam Skattebo and quarterback J.J.

McCarthy, while the Jets slipped deeper into difficulty amid a two-win, five-loss start that increased pressure on head coach Aaron Glenn. Skattebo rebounded from a previous benching by John Harbaugh to rush for 124 yards and a touchdown, highlighted by a 42-yard run that paved the way for an overtime victory against the Houston Texans.

Meanwhile, McCarthy continued a remarkably strong start following a trade prompted by a season-ending injury to Jaxson Dart.
