The New York Giants (4-8) host the Green Bay Packers (6-6) at MetLife Stadium this coming Monday night in a game that could have postseason ramifications.
The betting populace will be zoning in on this nationally televised game, but what should they be looking at?
Here are three prop bets you might want to consider, per BetMGM.
Saquon Barkley OVER 71.5 rushing yards (-115)
Not much of a risk, but a very winnable bet. Saquon Barkley has only gone over 100 yards on the ground once this season (against the Jets in Week 8) but is still averaging 77.4 yards per game.
He faces a sieve of a rushing defense this week in the Packers, who have allowed 160.7 rushing yards per game over their last four.
With the Giants coming off a bye and seeking to feature Barkley in the offense, this seems like a solid play.
Jordan Love UNDER 228.5 passing yards (-115)
Again, not going to break the back with this one. Most will be betting over based on Jordan Love’s recent rise, which has seen him average 286.5 yards per game over his past four.
But they are not taking into consideration the Giants’ performance against the pass this year. They have allowed over 230 yards passing in just three of their 12 games and those were against Dak Prescott, Tua Tagovailoa, and Brock Purdy. They’ve contained everyone else.
Romeo Doubs/Jayden Reed OVER 41.5 receiving yards (-115)
Romeo Doubs is the Packers’ leader in targets and receptions and is averaging 42.1 yards receiving per game. Jayden Reed is averaging 42.8.
Both players could eclipse this number, especially if Christian Watson (hamstring) is listed as doubtful or out.
Giants have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this year, so this is a good spot for both players.
