EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- When the New York Giants started their five-game winning streak, it was Odell Beckham Jr. who led the way.The big-play wide receiver had eight catches for a career-high 222 yards and two touchdowns, including a winning 66-yard catch and run with 1:24 to play, as the Giants snapped a three-game losing streak with a 27-23 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Oct. 16.The performance started New York (7-3) on the way to its longest regular-season winning streak since 2010, and put it in the playoff hunt for the first time in years.Ironically, Beckham hasnt had any other big games in the run, and he seemed annoyed answering questions after the Giants 22-16 win over the Bears this past weekend.For the record, Beckham has had 24 catches for 238 yards and three touchdowns in the last four games. He is obviously contributing to the offense, but he is averaging 9.9 yards in that span. Its almost five yards a catch less than his career average.Opposing defenses have had something to do with that. He is drawing a lot of double coverages, but its just not the same Beckham.Beckham insists all he cares about are winning and getting to the playoffs for the first time since he drafted in the first round in 2014.We know that we havent played to our full potential. Were still coming away with wins, he said of the offense. We just need to step it up in each and every way. Put games away when they need to be put away.Thats been the job of the Giants defense this season. In all five wins, Steve Spagnuolos unit has stepped up with the game on the line.I think its the difference between this year and last year, Beckham said. Last year, we just didnt have that same defense thats coming up with three or four stops in a row when we needed to. It was 22-16. We stopped them three or four times in a row. Last year, they may have scored once and it wouldve been 23-22 and we didnt score on offense. Theyre doing a tremendous job of closing out games.Beckham would like nothing more than to see the offense break out this week against the winless Cleveland Browns (0-11). However, he knows he will face a challenge going against cornerback Joe Haden.Hes a great corner, someone who Ive watched for a long time, even when he was at Florida, said Beckham, who two years ago made his famous one-hand touchdown catch against Dallas. Were friends in a sense. Im sure when we get out there its going to be all competition, but at the end, its all love. Im excited about the opportunity to go against one of the premier corners in this league.Like most of the team, Beckham uttered the company line that the Giants are taking this game just like any other. They are focused on the Browns and are taking nothing for granted.The other thing the Giants were focused on Wednesday was Thanksgiving.Practice will be early on Thursday and the players will spend time with family the rest of the day. Beckhams mother, stepfather and sister are coming to town.Im not cooking, Im eating, said Beckham, adding his mom and stepdad will probably cook. He also plans to watch some football on television.Game notes DE Jason Pierre-Paul (knee), OL Marshall Newhouse (knee), OL Brett Jones (calf) and WR Roger Lewis, Jr. (concussion) did not practice. ... G Justin Pugh (knee) and WR/returner Dwayne Harris (wrist) were limited.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and -http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Sale Ultra Boost .

Melbourne Victory have set up an FFA Cup semi-final with Melbourne City after overcoming a dogged Bentleigh Greens 2-0 in their quarter-final on Tuesday night.Marco Rojas and James Troisis second-half goals were enough for Victory to keep alive their defence of the cup.But to progress to their second-straight final, Kevin Muscats side will need to overcome their cross-town rivals after the draw for the last four paired the two clubs.With the semi-finals scheduled for two dates in late October, it means the Melbourne A-League sides will meet just days after their first A-League match-up of the season.The other semi-final will pair Canberra Olympic, who defeated Green Gully 1-0 on Tuesday, and Sydney FC.At Kingston Heath, Bentleigh matched the A-League giants for an hour, frustrating them in front of a record 3,754-strong crowd.Their resistance gave way on 63 minutes, when Victory stole possession and the lead.Leigh Broxham won the ball well, playing in Oliver Bozanic who crossed for Rojas to bundle home at the back post.Five minutes later, Muscats side had their second and aa degree of security.dddddddddddd.Troisi, Victorys most prominent attacker, turned away from his marker after a short corner and unleashed a strike past goalkeeper Ryan Scott.A hearty deflection off Troy Ruthven and the crossbar could see the strike credited as an own goal.The Greens showed themselves to be worthy opponents but failed to seriously challenge Victorys goal despite their organisation.Muscat said he wasnt excited about the City tie just yet, after what proved an arm wrestle for a chunk of the nights match.It was a matter of us having to break them down and win the game, he said.They did well to stifle any intensity ... eventually we got that a little bit later than we would have liked.Beaten coach John Anastasiadis said he couldnt fault his players spirit but their legs ran out.We set out a plan from the start and it worked to a tee, he said.Second half, we wanted it but if you make a mistake teams like Victory will punish you hard.
