Why bet on Giants versus Lions?

After 7 wins, it’s officially time to say the New York Giants are one of the NFC’s most talented teams. The Giants have faced doubters throughout the season.

All Brian Daboll’s squad has done is win football games. Heading into week 11, the Giants are not only 7-2 straight up but they’re also 7-2 against the spread. No only that but, once again, oddsmakers are giving the G-Men zero respect. The betting line in this seems to seriously undervalue NYG.

Detroit Lions at New York Giants Final Betting Prediction

The trends say Giants all the way. But before dumping on NYG, it’s important to note that the Giants defense hasn’t played as well as the stats imply.

Last week, the Giants allowed Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills to throw for 319 yards and a TD. Houston rushed for over 101 yards.

The last time the Giants faced a team with as good of an offense as Detroit’s, the G-Men lost. Seattle beat the Giants 27-13.

Detroit is playing their best ball of the season. In addition, the Giants have played at such a high-level that they’re bound to take backward step. The backward step should happen on Sunday. The Lions money line is the best play.
