The New York Giants (2-8) will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-6) at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Sunday afternoon.

Opening the week, the Giants were listed as 5-point home underdogs and that spread has worsened slightly with Big Blue now at +6 as of this writing.

Let’s take a look at who some of the experts and insiders around the league are taking in the Week 12 matchup:
