New York Giants (+6.5) over PITTSBURGH STEELERS
The Giants, oddly, play well away from MetLife Stadium.
They beat the Browns and Seahawks as underdogs, and would have beaten the Commanders if they had a kicker.
It seems Daniel Jones is more comfortable playing on the road, where he doesn’t have to concern himself with hearing boos.
The Steelers are coming off a great performance vs. the Jets in Russell Wilson’s debut, but this could be a letdown spot Monday night.
On the flip side, the Giants should be motivated after being thoroughly embarrassed by the Eagles at home.
The Giants have the pass rush to get after Wilson and keep this game tight.
The hope is Brian Daboll has a better plan this week for the offensive line with T.J. Watt on the other side.
New York Jets (-7) over NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS
Yes, the Jets burned us last week.
Yes, it’s the Jets. Yes, this is a lot of points. Everything says take the Patriots at home.
This game feels like the Jets’ last stand, though.
They’re coming off an embarrassing loss.
Davante Adams just called out all his new teammates even if he may not even know some of their names.
Betting on the NFL?
At some point, a talented team has to have some pride — right?
The Patriots look better under Drake Maye, but they still struggle offensively and are coming off a woeful 32-16 loss to the Jaguars in London.
New coach Jerod Mayo even called his team soft.
The Jets also routed the Patriots earlier this year, 24-3.
Back the desperate team in a must-win spot against a bad team with offensive, defensive and special teams issues.
Breece Hall gets to face a defense that just allowed backup Tank Bigsby to run wild on them overseas.
Last week: 0-2. Jets (L), Chargers (L)
Season: 4-10.
