New York Giants road underdogs at Washington Football Team in Week 9

The Washington Football Team are the betting favorites in their Week 9 home game against the New York Giants.

The New York Giants (1-7) visit the nation’s capital to play the NFC East rival Washington Football Team (2-5) at 1 p.m. ET in Week 9.  Below, we look at the early Giants-Washington betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

The Giants squandered an 11-point lead in a 25-23 loss on Monday Night Football to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After PK Ryan Succop hit a 38-yard field goal to give the Buccaneers an 8-point lead, Giants QB Daniel Jones drove New York 70 yards and connected with WR Golden Tate on a 19-yard touchdown pass with 28 seconds remaining.

The Giants failed on a 2-point conversion to tie the game. It was another game in which the Giants shot themselves in the foot, with Jones throwing two interceptions and New York committing seven penalties for 73 yards, including a costly 3rd down defensive pass interference penalty to extend Tampa Bay’s final scoring drive of the game.

New York’s betting records

  • Against the spread: 5-3 ATS
  • Over/Under: 3-5 O/U

Washington went into its bye week on a high note by drilling the Dallas Cowboys 25-3 in Week 7. First-year head coach Ron Rivera is in the process of rebuilding Washington’s identity into a defensive team.

The Football Team has the second-highest sack percentage, allows the fifth-fewest yards per play and holds opponents to the fifth-lowest red-zone touchdown conversion percentage. Also, Washington benched 2019 first-round pick QB Dwayne Haskins for QB Kyle Allen prior to Week 5. Allen is 1-2 in three starts and has a 72.5 QBR compared to Haskins’ 27.6 QBR.

Washington’s betting records

  • Against the spread: 4-3 ATS
  • Over/Under: 3-4 O/U
