SourcePick Ideas
Giants +7.5
Consider New York +7.5 rather than the moneyline: the Giants cover with a loss by seven or fewer, and New York changed its starting running back against New Orleans.
Under 41.5
Under 41.5 cashes with 41 or fewer combined points and is a lower-variance alternative if you expect modest scoring.
