The New York Giants host the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL regular season this Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium.
The Vikings are 1.5-point favorites with an over/under of just 41 points, per BetMGM.
There are a few prop bets on the radar for enthusiasts out there with some expendable cash. Here are our top three.

Daniel Jones OVER 216.5 passing yards
No one wants to pluck a penny down on anything Daniel Jones does except if involves turnovers getting sacked. That’s going to change this year. Jones has a better offensive line and a group of young. dynamic receivers both at wide receiver and in the backfield. The Giants want to throw more this year and the Vikings aren’t likely to prevent that from happening as they allowed over 283 yards through the air over their last three games of 2023.

Sam Darnold OVER 229.5 yards passing
I know, Jones and now Sam Darnold? Yep. Darnold has learned all of the lessons needed to finally play in this league. He spent last season under Kyle Shanahan in San Francisco and now under Kevin O’Connell he’ll get even better.
According to Sharp Football, 73.7% of the Minnesota offensive yardage last season was gained via passing, the highest rate in the league.
Darnold has a nice set of weapons (Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, Aaron Jones, Ty Chandler) to work with and the Giants will likely be starting two rookies and several other unproven players in their secondary.

Wan’Dale Robinson OVER 28.5 receiving yards
Wan’Dale Robinson averaged 35.0 receiving yards last season on four receptions per game. With the focus now on rookie Malik Nabers, less attention will be paid to Robinson now and he will take full advantage by perhaps even doubling those numbers in this game.
