In the first game on Sunday, the New York Giants host the Atlanta Falcons at 1:00PM ET. The Giants are currently favored by a field goal after knocking off the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football in Week 17. They beat the Falcons at home last season, 34-31, but failed to cover the spread as a 7-point favorite. The over/under total for this game is sitting at 47.5.
In the final game of Wild Card Weekend, Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos will host the Pittsburgh Steelers at 4:15PM ET. The Broncos are currently 8-point underdogs in Vegas, while the over/under total is sitting at 34.5 points as the scoring could be few and far between. If Pittsburgh is to make another run at the Super Bowl, it’ll have to do so without running back Rashard Mendenhall, who is out for the season with a knee injury.
