The Monday night matchup of the New York Giants (No. 18 in ESPNs Football Power Index) versus the Cincinnati Bengals (No. 17 in FPI) is strength against strength and weaknesses against weakness. The Bengals strong offense (fifth overall in efficiency this season) will go against the Giants eighth-ranked defense, while Eli Manning will lead the Giants terrible offense (No. 24 in efficiency) against the Bengals Swiss cheese defense (No. 30 in efficiency). Since both teams also have special-teams units ranked in the low 20s, this really could not be a more even matchup.FPI does give the edge to the Giants (54 percent chance to win), but only because they are at home. In a matchup this close, every little thing will count and could be the deciding factor. One of those factors is coaching decisions on fourth down. So far this season, Giants head coach Ben McAdoo has been a better decision-maker on fourth-down than Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis. Every fourth-down decision these coaches made this season can be analyzed from the perspective of whether going for it was a better decision than punting or kicking a field goal, in terms of how the decision would change the chance for a team to win. When a team chooses to punt in a situation in which its chances to win would be higher if it tried to convert the fourth down, the difference in the chances to win in the two situations can be called the win probability lost on that play.Summing up the Win Probability Lost for both coaches this season, the edge goes to McAdoo. McAdoo has lost win probability on 16 percent of those for a total win probability lost of 0.17, which ranks No. 23 overall. Lewis has lost win probability in 19 percent of fourth-down decisions for a total Win Probability Lost of 0.25, which ranks 29th overall.Given the even matchups on both sides of the ball, making the right decision at the right time could be the deciding factor, and while neither coach runs away with the edge in decision-making so far this season, the Giants edge in this area reinforce their home-field advantage and FPI chances to win.Penguins Jerseys China . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players.
