Betting on the New York Giants
Nobody gave a damn about the New York Giants at the beginning of this season, not even their fans. However, the team has done so well in these first few weeks that they are not in first place in their division just because they share it with the only undefeated team of the season, the Philadelphia Eagles.
Their 24-20 win over a great Ravens team in Week 6 marked their third straight win (one of their previous wins was over another formidable team like the Green Bay Packers). This success is due in large part to their defense, which has allowed the seventh-lowest average points on the season (18.8) plus, their opponents’ third-down conversion percentage is the fourth-lowest in the league (32.4 %).
Betting on the Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jacksonville Jaguars were also a team to talk about in the first few weeks, as they even beat the Chargers in Week 3; however, since then they’ve failed to get a win, with their last game in that span ending in a painful 34-27 loss to the Indianapolis Colts by allowing a touchdown on the last play of the game.
Although their results haven’t been the best, the Jaguars’ ground defense continues to hold steady, allowing the third-fewest yards on average this NFL season with just 89.3, which could help them in their quest for another victory.
JefeBet Prediction
The Jaguars’ good defense against the run could come in handy in this game, as they will face the Giants, who are averaging more yards on the ground (163.0) than air yards (153.3) this season.
If this is the case, this match could be one of fairly short possessions and a slow pace of play. Daniel Jones hasn’t been a quarterback who specializes in big passes, something that could cause the clock to run out quickly due to the large number of plays on the ground.
Additionally, recent meetings between the two franchises have tended to be low-scoring, with neither of the last two exceeding 35 points.
Prediction: Under (NYG 20 – JAX 21)
