Line: New England Patriots (-7.5) at New York Giants (+7.5); total: 54.5 – view all NFL lines
[sc:NFL240banner ]The New England Patriots will put their unbeaten record on the line when they lock horns with the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium later today. The Patriots are coming off an impressive 27-10 victory over the Washington Redskins in Week 9. Tom Brady starred for New England in that victory, completing 26 of 39 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns. He leads the league in passing touchdowns with 22 to his name this season.
He will be licking his chops at the prospect of facing a Giants defense that’s allowing a league-worst 429.4 yards a contest this season. That being said, the Giants will fancy their chances against the Patriots as they have fared extremely well against them of late. New York has won its last three meetings with New England, with two of those victories coming in the Super Bowl.

Writer’s Prediction
New England wins but New York covers.
Arizona Cardinals vs. Seattle Seahawks (8:30 PM ET)
Line: Arizona Cardinals (+3) at Seattle Seahawks (-3); total: 45.0 – view all NFL lines
Arizona extended its NFC West lead to two games with an emphatic 34-20 win against the Cleveland Browns on November 1. Carson Palmer led the way for the Cardinals in that victory, throwing for 374 yards and four touchdowns. The 35-year-old has been playing some excellent football this season, leading the NFC with a 110.2 passer rating.
Palmer will have his work cut out for him, however, against a Seattle team that is second in the league in total defense, allowing a measly 284.9 yards per game. The two-time defending NFC champions have rebounded strongly from their shock loss to Carolina in Week 6, beating San Francisco and Dallas prior to their Week 9 bye. The Seattle defense was immense in that game against Dallas, holding the Cowboys to just 220 total yards.
The Seahawks are 7-3 SU and ATS in their last 10 home games against the Cardinals.
