The New York Giants (2-3) host the Cincinnati Bengals (1-4) on Sunday Night Football this week. Both teams need to win to keep afloat in their respective divisions and will be pulling out all the stops to do so.
That will lead to a slew of prop bets as a high-scoring game (per Giants standards) is expected with the over/under at 48 total points.
Here are three prop bets from BetMGM for your perusal.
Giants OVER 23.5 points
The Bengals have been allowing 29 points per game to opponents and 34.5 PPG over their last three. The Giants gave us a taste of what they can do last week in Seattle on both offense and special teams. If Malik Nabers (concussion) cannot go again, the Giants have plenty of weapons in their arsenal to both eclipse this total and win this game.
Joe Burrow OVER 262.5 passing yards
The Bengals’ defense has been porous, setting the game script to a passing one. The Bengals are throwing 62 percent of the time this season and quarterback Joe Burrow will be taking to the air quite often in this game. Considering he’s averaging over 274 yards per game and the Giants — even though they haven’t allowed a 100-yard game to an individual receiver — can be passed on.
Giants UNDER 5.0 sacks
The Giants lead the league in sacks and can get into the record books with another five-sack performance. It will be a tall task versus these Bengals on Sunday night. Outside linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) is out and Burrow has been hard to sack (11 in the first five games) plus he has the shortest pocket time (2.2 seconds) among all NFL starting quarterbacks, getting rid of the ball quickly.
