Hello again forum! It's time for our weekly NFL score picking contest. Today's contest is brought to you by Rikkimaru, who has selected the Giants vs Cowboys game. This should be a good game that could go either way. The Giants are 25th or so in the league for defense, which is simply dreadful, but they have a pretty good (although not elite) QB with Eli manning. The Cowboys have a solid enough defense going for them, but their stand in QB is an abomination. This should make the game a literal coin toss. In my final analysis, I've learned to never bet against a manning, so, I'll be selecting the Giants this week to win with a final score of Giants 23 Cowboys 21 Now that you've read my dubious analysis, let's see what the real professionals as ODDS SHARK have to say about the game. ODDS SHARK ANALYSIS The Week 7 NFL slate pits the Dallas Cowboys against arch rival New York Giants, a matchup that’s becoming a perennial favorite for bettors banking on high-scoring games. The OVER has paid out in each of the last six meetings between the two clubs dating back to 2012. SHARK BITES The Cowboys are 10-2 SU in their last 12 games on the road. The Giants are 7-1 SU in their last eight games at home in October. The Cowboys are 1-4 SU and ATS in their last five games after the bye. This isn’t the same Cowboys team we’ve become accustomed to seeing, however. The ‘Boys, minus an injured Tony Romo and Dez Bryant, are 2-3 SU but are an ugly 1-4 ATS through their first five games. New York’s three game winning streak came to a crashing halt against Philadelphia last week in the form of a 27-7 loss at Lincoln Financial Field. After an extremely rocky start, the Eagles appear to be figuring it out offensively which is bad news for the G-Men. The Giants rank 28th in the NFL in total defense, but are particularly bad at stopping the pass. New York is giving up an average of 298.5 passing yards per game – the third worst mark in the league. OPENING ODDS and COMPUTER PICK The point spread was settled in at -5 for the host New York Giants earlier in the week, according to Bovada . The over under betting line was hovering around 48, with odds movement expected during the week at MyBookie.

Cowboys over the Giants 30-17 The Cowboys offense is too good for the Giants defense to handle and the Cowboys have a decent defense to take on the Giants offense.
Guess 1: Giants 28 - Cowboys 17 Guess 2: Giants 21 - Cowboys 17 Giants are a superior team with a more powerful offense.
Giants- 24 Cowboys- 13 Cowboys will be lucky to make it in the endzone more than once so I say a TD and a couple kicks. Giants are gonna dominate.
34 - 31 Giants over Boys 34 - 31 Boys over Giants I like this score. I'm picking it both ways. Everyone picking a blow out of either team is wrong. These teams ALWAYS play each other down to the last drive. Lots of eb and flow in this game. I think last team with the last decent amount of time for a drive wins. Seems like that's always how Cowboys / Giants games play out.
Giants 20-3 Giants 38-17 Giants havent done too good this season but i think they will beat the cowgirls
24-21 giants win Will be a close game, but giants will kick the game winnimg field goal in last 90 secs of game
Giants 24-20 Idk if no Romo Cowboys can beat out Eli who's game is lookin good lately. Cowboys D needs to prove me wrong. That said I'm not predicting well these days so ignore my analogy lol
