Giants vs. Commanders: 3 best prop bets for Week 8

The New York Giants (2-6) host their long-time rivals, the Washington Commanders (6-2), at MetLife Stadium this Sunday afternoon.

As in every NFL game this season, there will be opportunities to make a few bucks via prop bets. This game is no different.

Here are our top three prop bets in this matchup, per BetMGM.

Winning margin — Commanders by 1-13 (+115)

The Commanders are 4-point favorites with an over/under of 44. All that’s needed here is for Washington to win by less than 13 points, which is a very outcome. The Commanders won the first meeting, 21-18, and are 6-0-1 against the spread since Week 2. The Giants have lost their last three home games by an average of 13.3 points but are 3-1-1 against Washington under Brian Daboll, so it should be close.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels UNDER 226.5 passing yards (-115)

The Giants allowed over 250 yards passing for the first time last week to Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh. Jayden Daniels tossed for 210 in the first meeting in Week 2 but teams are realizing they don’t need to throw against the Giants to win. New York has allowed over 100 yards on the ground in six of their eight games and allowed 215 yards rushing to Washington in Week 2.

Giants WR Wan’Dale Robinson UNDER 5.5 receptions (-160)

Wan’Dale Robinson will likely see fewer targets in this game now that Malik Nabers is back. If Tyrone Tracy Jr. (concussion) is active, Robinson might even see less than normal. He is averaging six receptions per game this year but did not factor much in the first meeting, recording just two receptions on four targets.
