Betting tip and prediction: New York Giants – Cincinnati Bengals (13.10.2024)
The New York Giants are coming off an impressive win in Seattle, even given the odds; they were major underdogs. They played excellent on both ends of the ball, recording a season-best 420 total yards. At the same time, they held the Seahawks to their lowest point total of the season and are now allowing only 20.8 points per game. The aggressiveness on the defensive end definitely pays off for the Giants, and there is one guy that stands out. Dexter Lawrence has recorded six sacks, the highest total by a New York player through five games since 2011, when Jason Pierre-Paul had 6.5. However, things do not look good for the Giants ahead of Sunday’s game. Outside linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux is week-to-week after undergoing surgery on his wrist. Rookie star wide receiver Malik Nabers was improving midweek but still remained in the concussion protocol and is listed as day-to-day. Running back Devin Singletary was limited in the practice on Wednesday after sitting out last week with a groin injury. On the other hand, the Bengals have the full roster available, but their defensive needs some adjustments. Cincinnati had ten-point leads three times against the Baltimore Ravens last week but still lost overtime. Many are blaming Jow Burrow for the team’s struggle, but the quarterback is on top of his game. He threw a career-high five touchdown passes, completed 30 of 39 attempts for 392 yards, and had a 137.0 passer rating. Bengals top receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins each had a pair of touchdown grabs from Burrow. Cincinnati has scored 30-plus points in each of their past three games and is now fourth in the NFL in scoring (28 points per game), ninth in total offense (359 yards per game), and fifth in passing offense (263 yards per game). Those stats and injury lists speak for themselves, so we go with the Bengals to win this one.
