Betting on the New York Giants (+10.5)
Regular Season Record: 3-6
The Giants scored a 23-16 win over the Las Vegas Raiders at home in Week 9 before heading into a bye in Week 10. Prior to the Raiders game, New York nearly scored an upset victory in a 20-17 road loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. The Giants appear to be getting a major boost this week, with running back Saquon Barkley expected to play in his first game since suffering an ankle injury in Week 5. Barkley is listed as questionable, as of this writing, but has appeared in all practices this week. His presence on the field will be huge for the Giants’ offense that is in need of help. New York is just 24th in the league with 19.9 points per game and 29th in touchdowns per contest (1.9).
The Giants are 6-1 against the spread in their last seven November games. The under is 3-0-1 in New York’s last four games as the underdog.
Betting on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-10.5)
Regular Season Record: 6-3
The defending Super Bowl champions are suddenly on a losing skid, having lost to the New Orleans Saints (36-27) and to the Washington Football Team (29-19) in their last two contests. Losing a third one seems unlikeable for Tampa Bay, though. For one, they still have Tom Brady playing great football, generally speaking. Plus, the Bucs are going to play a Giants team that hasn’t won in any of Daniel Jones’ past eight prime time starts. So far this season, Brady is third in the NFL with 2,870 passing yards, first with 27 touchdowns, and third with a 65.5 QBR. Given the Giants’ poor pass rush and mediocre pass defense overall, look for Brady to rebound from his letdown performance in the Washington game in which he went 23/34 for two touchdowns and two interceptions to go with 220 passing yards.
The Buccaneers are 7-1 against the spread in their last eight home games. The over is 4-1 in their last five home games as the favorite.
Writer’s Prediction
The Buccaneers win, 30-17.
