The Giants So Far in 2018
Saquon Barkley broke the franchise record for receptions in a single game with 14 in Week 2, so there is hope for this franchise. The bad news of course is that the Giants have only scored touchdowns on 9 percent of its possessions this season.
The Giants 2018-2019 Odds
At 10-1 odds of winning the division, if you think New York will suddenly improve, this is the week to grab them at such solid odds. Winning the Super Bowl in 2019, the Giants were at 100-1.
The Giants-Texans Trends and Predictions
As a road underdog of 3.5 to 7 points over the past three seasons, the Giants have gone 1-6 Against The Spread.
The Texans, meanwhile, are just 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
The NFL Betting Power Ratings suggest a line of Houston -4.
Houston has one of the more talented defensive fronts that should be able to expose a thin Giants secondary. We can't see New York making much headway here.
The Texans also have the league's top rushing games. The Giants currently rank 29th in run defense.
On paper at least, this looks like a lopsided victory for the Texans -6.
