According to current NFL odds and oddsmakers from online sports book Sportsbook.com, the Giants are 3.5-point favorites over the Redskins on Sunday. The over/under total for this game is currently 44 points.
The Giants fell to 9-6 after they lost to the Packers in Week 17. They’re now 7-8 against the spread according to latest NFL trends, but they’ve covered in four of their seven road games and are 4-3 straight up on the road.
The Redskins shocked the Jaguars last Sunday in overtime to improve to 6-9 on the year. They’re 7-6-2 against the spread this season, which includes a 2-3-2 record at home. They’re just 2-5 at home straight up.
NFL Week 17 Free Pick:
The Redskins have shown a lot of fight the past two weeks but it’s high time the Giants took it to an opponent again. They’re 4-0-1 against the spread in their last five meetings against the Redskins and 4-0 ATS in their last four trips to Washington. The favorite in this series is 4-0-1 ATS in the last five meetings between these two teams, while the road team is 5-2-1 against the spread in the last eight meetings. Eli Manning needs to take better care of the ball than he has all season, but he should torch a depleted Washington defense. The Giants also need a strong effort out of their defense because Rex Grossman has given the Redskins a shot of life the past two weeks. We think New York will rise to the occasion with its playoff hopes on the line and roll to victory on Sunday. Our pick is the Giants –3.5.
