Giants vs. Panthers: 3 best prop bets for Week 10

The New York Giants and Carolina Panthers face off this Sunday morning in Munich, Germany. Here are three prop bets to consider.

The New York Giants travel to Munich, Germany to face the Carolina Panthers this Sunday in a match between two 2-7 teams that are trying to find their footing.

The Giants are favorites in this game (-6.5), breaking a 24-game streak where they were listed as an underdog. It was the second-longest active underdog streak in the NFL behind — you guessed it — the Panthers, who are now up to 30 straight games.

The last time the Giants were favored was in Week 2 of last season against the Cardinals. They were 4.5-point faves and won the game, 31-28, after being down 28-7 in the third quarter.

Is there any money to be made in this game for bettors? Of course. Here are our top three prop bets in the game, per BetMGM.

Panthers QB Bryce Young UNDER 200 yards passing (-115)

The Giants, even with their young secondary, have allowed the ninth-fewest yards passing in the NFL this season. Young has shown that he can produce over the past few games, tossing for 224 yards against Denver and 171 versus New Orleans. But that was before the team purged themselves of two of their top wide receiver (Diontae Johnson, Jonathan Mingo) and the Giants did some soul-searching in their secondary after some lax play. The Giants lead the league in sacks this season but had none last week, so they’ll be coming for Young on Sunday.

Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. OVER 75.0 yards rushing. (-130)

Tyrone Tracy Jr. has been the best rookie running back in the NFL this season with 442 yards rushing. This week, he faces the worst rushing defense in the NFL in the Panthers, who have allowed 159.3 yards per game. The payoff isn’t great here, so we suggest you parlay or tease this prop but expect Tracy to eat on Sunday.

Giants WR Wan’Dale Robinson OVER 5.5 receptions (+110)

Malik Nabers will likely have cornerback Jaycee Horn sticking to him most of the game, so he’s likely to see a drop in targets. Darius Slayton (concussion) didn’t make the trip and the team is still iffy on putting the ball in Jalin Hyatt’s hands. Add in the fact that tight end Theo Johnson has back and knee issues and Robinson suddenly becomes the default option. He should have approximately 8-9 grabs in this game.

Giants vs. Commanders: 3 best prop bets for Week 8

The New York Giants and Washington Commanders face off this Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium. Here are three prop bets to consider.

The New York Giants (2-6) host their long-time rivals, the Washington Commanders (6-2), at MetLife Stadium this Sunday afternoon.

As in every NFL game this season, there will be opportunities to make a few bucks via prop bets. This game is no different.

Here are our top three prop bets in this matchup, per BetMGM.

Winning margin — Commanders by 1-13 (+115)

The Commanders are 4-point favorites with an over/under of 44. All that’s needed here is for Washington to win by less than 13 points, which is a very outcome. The Commanders won the first meeting, 21-18, and are 6-0-1 against the spread since Week 2. The Giants have lost their last three home games by an average of 13.3 points but are 3-1-1 against Washington under Brian Daboll, so it should be close.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels UNDER 226.5 passing yards (-115)

The Giants allowed over 250 yards passing for the first time last week to Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh. Jayden Daniels tossed for 210 in the first meeting in Week 2 but teams are realizing they don’t need to throw against the Giants to win. New York has allowed over 100 yards on the ground in six of their eight games and allowed 215 yards rushing to Washington in Week 2.

Giants WR Wan’Dale Robinson UNDER 5.5 receptions (-160)

Wan’Dale Robinson will likely see fewer targets in this game now that Malik Nabers is back. If Tyrone Tracy Jr. (concussion) is active, Robinson might even see less than normal. He is averaging six receptions per game this year but did not factor much in the first meeting, recording just two receptions on four targets.

Giants injury report: Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns remain sidelined

While New York Giants rookie WR Malik Nabers is trending toward playing in Week 7, NT Dexter Lawrence and LB Brian Burns remain sidelined.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 7 game against the Philadelphia Eagles at MetLife Stadium.

Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll revealed some positive news to reporters, noting that rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers advanced in concussion protocol and would practice in full.

If all goes well, Nabers will meet with an independent neurologist in hopes of being cleared to play.

The news wasn’t nearly as positive for nose tackle Dexter Lawrence and linebacker Brian Burns who, despite their vows to play on Sunday, missed their second straight day of practice.

Veteran cornerback Adoree’ Jackson was also sidelined on Thursday due to a neck injury.

The Giants’ full Thursday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: NT Dexter Lawrence (hip), LB Brian Burns (groin), P Jamie Gillan (hamstring), CB Adoree’ Jackson (neck)

Limited participant: WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (shoulder), WR Darius Slayton (groin), RB Devin Singletary (groin), LB Ty Summers (hamstring)

Full participant: WR Malik Nabers (concussion/groin), WR Wan’Dale Robinson (ankle)

Giants have second-most dropped passes entering Week 7

The New York Giants have 16 dropped passes this season, second to only the Cleveland Browns (19).

The New York Giants offense has had plenty of struggles so far this season. There’s the inability to score points, red zone failures, missed field goals, and lack of explosive plays to blame.

Another area that can be pointed to is the many dropped passes. The Giants have dropped 16 passes this season, the second-most in the NFL through six weeks behind only the Cleveland Browns (19).

Darius Slayton leads the way with four, followed by Wan’Dale Robinson and Malik Nabers with three each. None, perhaps, was more damaging than the fourth down drop by Nabers in a 21-18 loss to Washington in Week 2.

WOW NABERS DROPS THE FOURTH DOWN PASS FROM DANIEL JONESpic.twitter.com/kaC1AUuGhN

— JPAFootball (@jasrifootball) September 15, 2024

Quarterback Daniel Jones needs all the help he can get to spark the offense and the drops have been a hindrance.

“We feel like we should catch every ball. Especially if it’s coming and hitting our hands,” Robinson said in late September. “So, that’s on us. At the end of the day, we’ve got to make those plays for Daniel even if it’s not a perfect ball.

“For us, it’s just making sure we’re looking at it all the way in and not trying to do too much before making the catch all the way.”

Slayton has always had issues with drops, but the others are just starting out with Jones as their quarterback. Hopefully, the Giants can rectify the issue and become more efficient.

Giants injury report: Malik Nabers practices, Dexter Lawrence sits out

New York Giants WR Malik Nabers returned to practice on Wednesday while NT Dexter Lawrence (hip) and LB Brian Burns (groin) sat out.

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for a Week 7 game against the Philadelphia Eagles at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Unfortunately for the Giants, they were short on superstars as linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) currently rests on injured reserve (IR) and is soon to be joined by left tackle Andrew Thomas (foot), who is out for the season.

On the positive end of the spectrum, rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers (concussion) donned a red non-contact jersey and returned to practice.

“Good progress,” head coach Brian Daboll said. “He’s much better.”

The Giants are “optimistic” Nabers will be able to play on Sunday against the Eagles.

Meanwhile, Daboll said the team would not open any windows for injured reserve (IR) players, meaning kicker Graham Gano (hamstring) is out for at least one more week.

Additionally, Daboll seems uncertain about the Week 7 statuses of nose tackle Dexter Lawrence and linebacker Brian Burns, each of whom missed practice.

The Giants’ full Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: OL Andrew Thomas (foot), NT Dexter Lawrence (hip), LB Brian Burns (groin), P Jamie Gillan (hamstring)

Limited participant: WR Malik Nabers (concussion), WR Bryce Ford-Wheaton (shoulder), WR Wan’Dale Robinson (ankle), WR Darius Slayton (groin), RB Devin Singletary (groin), LB Ty Summers (hamstring)

Full participant: N/A

Giants continue to struggle with vertical passing game

After airing it out in training camp, the New York Giants are now struggling to generate big passing plays down the field.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll is frustrated with his team’s inability to execute explosive plays, especially in the vertical passing game.

“Our inability, I would say this game, to generate explosive plays, whether that’s through the run or through the air is not where I want it to be right now. So, we’ll keep doing it. Keep calling them. And we just got to keep on improving in that area,” he told reporters on Monday.

The Giants scored just seven points against a struggling Cincinnati Bengals defense on Sunday night.

There were plenty of misfires and a number of miscommunications both short and long as quarterback Daniel Jones tried to make something happen.

Jones threw deep five times in the game, completing none. One time each to Wan’Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton and three times to speedster Jalin Hyatt.

Second Quarter

3-8-NYG 29 :(12:53) (Shotgun) D.Jones pass incomplete deep left to W.Robinson

1-10-NYG 40 (8:16) (Shotgun) D.Jones pass incomplete deep right to D.Slayton.

1-14-NYG 5 (2:45) (Shotgun) D.Jones pass incomplete deep left to J.Hyatt.

Fourth Quarter

2-3-NYG 45 (5:49) (Shotgun) D.Jones pass incomplete deep left to J.Hyatt

3-16-NYG 24 1:41) (Shotgun) D.Jones pass incomplete deep left to J.Hyatt

The longest gains on the evening were four 15-yard passes — two to Robinson, one to Slayton, and one to tight end Theo Johnson.

The lack of explosive plays can wear on an offense as Jones noted after the game Sunday night.

“It makes it tough,” he said. “It makes it tough when you have to do that in this league. I think credit to their defense, their scheme and their plan is to prevent some of those plays, but we’ve got to execute and find a way to generate some of them.”

Daboll was asked on Sunday night what his thoughts were on whiffing on all of the deep shots in the game.

“Look, you’re not going to be an 80 percent completion rate when you throw deep balls. You’re going to hit some, you’re going to miss some,” he said. “Obviously, they help a great deal in terms of ending drives in points when you hit them. Whether that’s catch and run, like it was on the one we got called back, or a downfield shot to Wan’Dale on the crosser. Whatever it may be. We’ll keep working at it.”

The absence of star rookie wideout Malik Nabers also might have something to do with the dearth of big plays. Nabers may have caught some of those deep passes as he exhibits more of an aggressive style than the others and attacks the ball.

Giants injury report: Malik Nabers, Devin Singletary remain sidelined

New York Giants rookie WR Malik Nabers (concussion) and RB Devin Singletary (groin) remained sidelined at practice on Thursday.

The New York Giants took the field on Thursday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field.

With time running low, it was a big day for wide receiver Malik Nabers and several of the other injured veterans.

While Nabers remains sidelined and in concussion protocol, head coach Brian Daboll is still holding out hope that the rookie can play on Sunday.

“Making progress,” Daboll said of Nabers.

Several other Giants also made progress as cornerbacks Adoree’ Jackson and Andru Phillips returned to the field. Running back Devin Singletary also did some work on the side.

The Giants’ full Thursday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: WR Malik Nabers (concussion), RB Devin Singletary (groin)

Limited participant: CB Andru Phillips (calf), CB Adoree’ Jackson (calf), LB Brian Burns (groin), WR Wan’Dale Robinson (heel)

Full participant: LB Matthew Adams (quad)

Giants injury report: Malik Nabers remains in concussion protocol

New York Giants WR Malik Nabers is in concussion protocol while cornerbacks Adoree’ Jackson and Dru Phillips remain sidelined.

The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday morning in preparation for a Week 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington.

All eyes were understandably on rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers, who suffered a concussion in a 20-15 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday Night Football.

With 10 days in between games, the Giants have been and remain optimistic about Nabers’ potential availability this coming Sunday but it’s still early.

“Early stages,” head coach Brian Daboll said of where Nabers is in concussion protocol. “Day to day.”

Meanwhile, cornerbacks Andru Phillips and Adoree’ Jackson remain sidelined.

The Giants’ full Wednesday injury report can be found below:

Did not participate: WR Malik Nabers (concussion), RB Devin Singletary (groin), DB Andru Phillips (calf), CB Adoree’ Jackson (calf)

Giants vs. Cowboys: 3 best prop bets for Week 4

The New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys face off this Thursday night at MetLife Stadium. Here are three prop bets to consider.

The New York Giants (1-2) host their long-time rivals, the Dallas Cowboys (1-2), at MetLife Stadium on Thursday Night Football.

There’s a lot of wagering action going both ways in this game but there are some prop opportunities for bettors to take advantage of, per BetMGM.

Wan’Dale Robinson OVER 34.5 receiving yards (-110)

Dallas will be falling all over themselves trying to keep up with Malik Nabers, which leaves Wan’Dale Robinson to do what he does best — run the horizontal route tree. Daniel Jones checks down to Wan’Dale often, averaging eight targets per game. He should easily surpass the over on yards if he gets that this week.

Dak Prescott OVER 23.5 completions (-120)

With the Cowboys struggling to run the football, averaging a measly 73 yards per game on the ground so far this year, and the Giants have been staunch against the run. That means Dak Prescott will take to the air. The Giants have allowed 19, 23, and 21 completions in their three games thus far. Dak should get that, and then some.

Daniel Jones OVER 32.5 rushing yards (-110)

As stated, Dallas is vulnerable to the run and Daniel Jones has accounted for 23.5 percent of the Giants’ carries this season. In Week 1, Deshaun Watson rushed for 39 yards on five attempts and Lamar Jackson had 87 on the ground against them last week. It seems mobile QBs are having success versus them and Jones, if anything, is mobile.

Giants vs. Browns: 3 best prop bets for Week 3

The New York Giants and Cleveland Browns face off this Sunday at Huntington Bank Field. Here are three prop bets to consider.

The New York Giants (0-2) head out to Ohio to take on the Cleveland Browns (1-1) in a Week 3 battle between two of the NFL’s legacy franchises.

The Browns are favored by 6.5 points with an over/under of 39.5 total points, per BetMGM.

Those are not the only betting options on the board in this game. Here are three prop bets for your consideration.

Browns RB D’Onta Foreman OVER 40.5 rushing yards (-115)

Up until last week, Jerome Ford looked like the only game in town to fill in for the injured Nick Chubb but now it appears that D’Onta Foreman will be getting the early down touches and Ford could be used more often out of the backfield.

In Week 2, Foreman had 42 yards on 14 carries against Jacksonville and now faces a Giants team that has been allowing 155 yards per game on the ground. Looks like a layup.

Daniel Jones OVER 184.5 passing yards (-115)

The Browns have been excellent against the pass, allowing just 179 yards per game. Daniel Jones has been averaging right around there in his first two games but with the offensive line settling in and the offense showing some signs of life with their young receivers, he should eclipse this number this week.

Wan’Dale Robinson OVER 31.5 receiving yards (-110)

Malik Nabors will almost certainly be shadowed by Browns Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward, who shut down Dallas’ CeeDee Lamb (61 yards) and the Jaguars’ Christian Kirk (three targets, -1 yards) so far this year.

Nabors saw 18 targets against Washington but with Ward guarding him, he’s likely to see less. That volume should fall to Wan’Dale Robinson, who gained 44 in the opener against Minnesota but just 18 last week in Washington with all the targets going Nabers’ way.
