SURVIVOR
Each week I will pick two games, my “Play it Safe” selection as well as my “Out on a Limb” pick:
Play It Safe (7-2): Giants vs. HOU
Coming off a bye week where they had way too long to think about their Week 8 loss at the Seahawks, the Giants welcome the lowly Texans. Look for the G-Men to handle Houston fairly easily in this one as they start off their stretch run with a victory.
Out on a Limb (3-6): Cowboys at GB
Picking against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers at Lambeau Field seems risky. However, the worst thing this struggling offense can get a dose of is the Cowboys’ defense. Look for Mike McCarthy to get his revenge in his return to Green Bay.
THURSDAY NIGHT SPECIALS
Look for my “Against the Spread” plays in a separate article that will run each Saturday this season. Here I will look at my Thursday night betting recommendation.
The Pick:
$100 Falcons -2.5 (-115 BetMGM)
Season total: (5-4 on season; +$70 season total)
After getting beat on the total by a half a point last week on Philly’s fourth-quarter two-point conversion I’m laying off the total in this one. Atlanta got lucky to win the first game in this series a couple weeks back, but overall they seem like the better team and the one I am backing here.
Same Game Parlay Prop Bet (DraftKings)
$20 (+575 DraftKings)
Season total: (+$65)
- Tyler Allgeier OVER 29.5 RuYd
- Terrance Marshall OVER 29.5 ReYd
- Kyle Pitts OVER 24.5 ReYd
- Anytime TD Cordarrelle Patterson
