Giants vs. Cowboys Free Pick
A battle in the NFC East will take place on Monday Night Football, as the Cowboys try to get back on track against their rivals, the Giants. Read on to check out our pick for tonight’s game, as well as get the latest odds.
Before we get to our free pick, let’s take a look at the most current odds.
Oddsmakers from online sports book Sportsbook.com have made the Cowboys 3.5-point favorites over the Giants in Week 7, although some books list Dallas at –3. The over/under total for this game is currently 45.
The Giants have won three in a row and are now 4-2 to start the year. They’re 3-3 agianst the spread, however, and are 1-1 on the road this year (both straight up and ATS).
The Cowboys have been dismal this year. They’ve one just one game and are now 1-4 to start the season, and are also 1-4 against the spread. They’re 0-2 in Dallas this season and failed to cover in each of those games.
Our Free Pick:
There’s no question that the Cowboys have been brutal this year, so I’m not going to sugarcoat things. They’ve played undisciplined football, are careless and are unwilling/unable to make adjustments. They’ve been awful.
That said, the Giants are due for a letdown after winning three straight. If anything, the NFL has taught us over the years to expect the unexpected and many people expect New York to keep rolling. It’s the perfect time for the Cowboys to turn things around, play a mistake-free game and earn a huge victory against a surging division rival.
If you’re looking for some trends to back this pick up, here they are: The Giants are just 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games overall and just 2-6 ATS in their last eight games following a straight up win. The Cowboys, on the other hand, are 4-1 ATS in their last five games after allowing less than 250 total yards in their previous game.
Lay the points with Dallas tonight, although make sure you buy the spread down to 3 if you can.
