Bettors love the Giants and Squon Barkley on Monday night

I saw Jacoby Brissett and Mitch Trubisky meet on Thursday night. Sunday night he had a beautiful 11-10 scoreline between the 49ers and the Broncos. This annual streak of NFL primetime games continues Monday night in New York City as the Cooper Rush and the Dallas Cowboys take on Daniel Jones and the Giants. New York is a 1-point home favorite and his total points are as low as 39.5 points.

Bettors like the Giants

The New York Giants are one of the three remaining undefeated teams in the NFL. Sure, 30 of the 32 teams have him playing one game more than New York, but it’s an amazing start for a team that most didn’t think much of coming into the season. New York went 2-0 against the spread, winning both of the first games outright as underdogs.

But the Giants aren’t the underdogs on Monday night, as they’re the 1-point favorites at home against the Dallas Cowboys. Most bettors prefer the Giants as his 58% of bets and his 61% of funds are in favor of the Giants to cover his 1 point spread.

The points spread moved in the opposite direction last week despite action in the majority in New York. The Giants opened as the 3-point favorite earlier in the week, but that line moved 2 points to the Cowboys. became advantageous.

Dallas has Cooper Rush at center for the second game. In the past two seasons Rush has listed his two wins as an underdog, with him going 2-0. He plays the underdog role again on Monday night, but on a smaller scale.

Do bettors expect points?

Given that Rush is the backup quarterback and Daniel Jones is widely regarded as the below-average starting quarterback, it’s no surprise that the totals for this game are low. BetMGM currently has a total of just 39 points.

This is the 6th game this season with a total of 40 points or less. Overall, these game overs he is 3-2. The bettor expects this trend to continue as his 56% of bets and his 63% of funds have ended. However, this season, both the Giants and the Cowboys are 2-0.

In the first three weeks of the NFL season, the under went from 29-17-1 to 47 games. In the primetime game, he’s 7-2 under the rug, including an 11-10 Barnburner between the 49ers and the Broncos last night.

Saquon Barkley is the most popular prop bet.

After struggling last season and dealing with injuries the year before, Saqwon Barkley are off to a solid start to the 2022 season.

He jumped for 164 yards on the ground in Week 1. He had a quiet last week, but still had a solid game on the ground and tallied 72 yards. Bettors expect Barkley to continue a solid start to Monday night.

Saquon Barkley is a -120 favorite who can score touchdowns at any point during the game. He’s +600 to score the first touchdown of the game. These two props are his pre-match BetMGM’s most popular props in his bets.

The third most popular prop bet also includes Barkley. A bettor like Saquon has over 22.5 receiving yards. Barkley had just 16 receiving yards last week, but he had 30 in the season opener.
