Best Bet: Under 48.5 (-115) at DraftKings
Score Prediction: Cowboys 24, Giants 21
The Pick: Cowboys 24, Giants 21
We’ll try the Under based on a large trends for the Giants when opening the season inside MetLife Stadium.
Game Betting Analysis
This is a tricky game to nail down, let’s start with the ATS market where the Cowboys enter on an 0-5 ATS skid dating back to last season. Also, the Giants are 9-4 on the ATS when playing at home over their last 13 home games. So we take the Giants, right? Well, Dallas has actually covered seven straight road opening divisional games, while the G-Men have lost outright in six straight season opening home games. Okay, how about the total? The Giants have gone Under in a remarkable 12 straight home opening games, but the Over has hit in four of five meetings between both clubs. The obvious x-factor here is John Harbaugh as the new coach in New York, and whether his style will enhance or hinder some of these trends. Time will tell, but if its anything compared to his tenure in Baltimore, we’ll lean with the Under which presents one of the more grand data pieces to get behind from the crop mentioned above.
Cowboys-Giants Odds (Spread, Moneyline, Over/Under)
Deciding Factor: Dak Prescott vs. Giants Defensive Unit
With Harbaugh now in New York, all questions will be on how good the Giants’ defense can be. A good first test against Dak Prescott, who is 1-1 against Baltimore in his career. Prescott has seen solid success against Harbaugh’s Ravens, tossing for nearly 700 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions in the two games against his defense. If Prescott continues to play well against Harbaugh’s defense then expect Dallas to potentially cover the spread. Javonte Williams has a case to be the real deciding factor as well, but ultimately the game will fall on Prescott and not Javonte’s shoulders.
