Giants at Cowboys: Odds, betting lines, picks and prediction
Prediction
Cowboys 35, Giants 21
Money line (?)
The Cowboys (-455) will finally get back in the win column, but the price is too expensive. Every $4.55 wagered on the Dallas ML profits only $1 if it wins. In larger numbers, that’s $45.40 to win $10 or $455 to win $100, etc. … No Thanks.
PASS.
Against the spread (?)
The COWBOYS -9.5 (-115) are the STRONGEST PLAY – which should be 1.5 times your usual wager.
Their defense will give up points, but Dak & Co. will score enough to cover the spread.
Over/Under (?)
OVER 54.5 (-110) is worth a small wager – which should be half your usual bet. As long as the Giants find the end zone three times – which shouldn’t be a problem vs. the Cowboys defense – this should go Over.
The last three head-to-head meetings played to the Over.
