The Dallas Cowboys (9-4) will try to extend their winning streak to three games Sunday when they visit the New York Giants (4-9). This NFC East showdown will kick off at 1 p.m. ET at MetLife Stadium this weekend. Below, we look at the Cowboys vs. Giants odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.
The Cowboys have been carried by their defense lately, forcing four turnovers in each of their last two games. The defense has also scored two touchdowns in the last two weeks, which were pivotal in the team’s wins over the Saints and Washington.
Since the Cowboys’ Week 7 bye, they’re just 4-3 with losses to the Broncos, Chiefs and Raiders.
The Giants have endured yet another difficult season, and things only seem to be getting worse with QB Daniel Jones still sidelined by a neck injury.
QB Mike Glennon is slated to start again this weekend after losing his first two starts of the season to the Dolphins and Chargers. The Giants lost those games by a combined score of 57-30, failing to cover the spread in either one.

Cowboys at Giants odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Cowboys 24, Giants 17
Money line
The Cowboys absolutely should not lose this game against the Glennon-led Giants. They cruised to a 44-20 win over New York back in Week 5, and that was with Jones at quarterback.
I believe the Cowboys will beat the Giants but with the way Dallas’ offense has played lately and given the chalky line of -700, I would PASS here.
Against the spread
The Cowboys’ offense has looked out of sorts lately, specifically QB Dak Prescott. And with RB Ezekiel Elliott still dealing with a knee injury, the offense doesn’t exactly have a running game to lean on.
The 11.5-point spread is high, even with New York missing key players on offense. And two of the last three games between the Cowboys and Giants have been decided by four points or fewer.
Bet the GIANTS +11.5 (-112).
Over/Under
In the Giants’ 13 games this season, the total has only gone Over four times. The Over is 6-7 in Cowboys games this year, including a recent stretch where the total has gone Under in six of their last seven games.
I like the UNDER 44.5 (-112) in this one because the Giants will struggle to move the ball against Dallas’ defense and the Cowboys haven’t looked good on offense at all.
