Line screams Giants win as strange as it may sound. Way too many on one side of this one, so even though it seems wrong...I'll take NYG. That's how you make money doing this...be a nonconformist and don't do what the majority of puds are doing, because they lose their money more often than not, trying to find a sure and easy bet. Giants win, take it to the bank

Everything about the line points towards a G-Men Victory!!!...but they are sooo bad on offense.  Its going to take a hell of an effort from their underachieving Defense who will need to create turnovers from Fitzpatrick and short fields for Eli Manning...Big Money on Manning and the G-Men...Small Money on the better Texans team in a multi-team parlay...

Man, my head is screaming "Take The Texans!!!", but my gut's telling me Giants M/L. Could the travel be a factor in this one? G'Aints opened up in Detroit, and have been sitting at home ever since, while Texans go from Houston to Oakland to N.Y.? That's about as big a circle as you can make and still be in the Continental U.S.
 
Fitzpatrick might be a decent game manager, but he's been known to gunsling it if his team gets down early......
 
Eff it - against my better judgement, G'Aints M/L. Hopefully Eli doesn't let me down like he usually does. I need SpyTheWeb to come in here and tell me everything's going to be allright with some crazy angle, and then W8 can yell at me for being an idiot..........
 
Good Luck All

Everyone posting here likes the Giants?  Does it make us "puds"?

For those saying the Giants offense looks bad -- you're right -- however there were good signs last Sunday against a pretty good Arizona defense.  Eli had his highest QBR since 2012 last week.  Cruz dropped a bunch of passes.  Jennings stumbled, and fumbled without being touched.  Ginn Jr. ran back a poor punt.  All these things considered to be "bad luck" cost the G-men.  At one point it really felt like the Giants were going to win.  The Texans beat up on the awful Raiders last week.  I am taking GIANTS ML.

Yeah, its good to see you all back here for another season.   I was going to go large on Dallas this week but the line is moving in reverse. Something stinky there.  I am refraining from this game because of the reasons you mentioned but dont have enough confidence in Eli and those weakings in NY.  So, no play for me.

Since Foster is doubtful with a hammy issue the line has moved accordingly.No surprise.
Plenty of back up at his position since he was banged up for so much of last season,so this is nothing new.
The Defense will continue to do what it does and then some.
Special teams is surprisingly looking good and all Fitz, has to do is manage the game with the talent around him and Houston will win this.

I strongly agree as hard as it seems how any body can take the giant but you are right you have to take them if you whant to win

Sorry W8 - Texans ain't gonna win 'em all. Took the G'Aints M/L for even money. I hate going against a good fan, I almost hope I'm wrong (almost) - Good Luck Buddy.....

yeah, this is a tough spot for my texans. the giants really should have covered last week. if the turnovers are even i'd give the edge to the giants from a betting standpoint. however, giants are turnover machines and the texans are turnover forcing machines so far this season... i'm going to sit this one out and hope for some turnovers...

BEST PLAY PICK

NY GIANTS

Because the majority does not believe or does it seem impossible to defeat Houston NY Giants at home? ... Starts with Houston (2-0) this season, but remember that last season was a complete disaster, nothing indicates that the Sunday put your record (3-0) when visiting NY Giants. I'm pretty sure NY Giants Sunday to beat Houston. The initial line indicates HOUSTON -2.5, the current line is now NY GIANTS -1.5 -2 OR, will be very difficult to move the NY Giants this season, so I see an easy win 8 points or more on Houston . If NY Giants have a chance to win convincingly at home is today when it hosts Houston. NY Giants Take unafraid.
Prediction: 25-17 NY GIANTS. 
Good luck friends.

   RIGHT DIRECTION ?

Neither Gmen n' Line appear right.
What is certain, Neither Fitzpatrick or Eli are lighting it up .
IMO =
Run Battle Game.
UNDER WAGER Appears Be$t option.

Road weary TeXans, Could be ripe spot for ELI to exploit weak secondary.
Not a believer 
Small WTF Peanut Wager on OT finale n' UNDER.

You'd be surprised that Eli hasn't been sacked more than 4 times in two games... Houston looks like they could give Eli trouble but if NYG can get the running game going then there won't be a problem and Eli can be the Eli of the Super bowl winning quarterback of yesteryear

Houston rank 23 rd against the run... NYG ranked 12the and no Arian Foster? Houston will pass all day? Not good..

GMEN with their first win season and all of a sudden the NFC East becomes interesting again yet still mediocre
Sip on that plus money honey!

HOU @ NYG -1 ou 41.5
A. Foster is not playing.
NYG's O has been mixed up and TO prone. E. Manning doesn't know which foot to keep back in his stance and the receivers can't remember the routes and are getting hit in the hip with the ball,

But without a solid running game  I can't believe the Harvard man can get it done in the air.

NYG have a must win game at home vs a team with key player injuries. Tom Coughlin and his coaches have their jobs are on the line today.

Taking NYG -1

Gotta go with Texans and I rarely bet on my team.  Blue has looked great so far when he's been in and as was mentioned earlier, Foster being hurt is nothing new. Watt will be too much for Eli. gla
