Matt’s Eagles vs. Giants Same Game Parlay
Eagles -5.5
Set for a one-sided performance on Thursday Night Football, the Eagles should have no trouble running up the score on the inferior Giants. With the spread currently set at -7.5, we are going to tease it down and buy a few points back to give us a bit of leeway if things finish close without sacrificing too much value.
In their wins this season, the Eagles have shown the ability to control the pace of the contest and manipulate their opponents into playing with their backs against the wall, while they sit firmly in the driver’s seat. Facing a Giants squad that relies heavily on their run game to generate offence, this is a nightmare matchup for them as the Eagles sport one of the best defensive fronts in the NFL that mitigate rushing yards from their opposition.
With their strengths in critical areas of the game, the Eagles are well-positioned to win the game by six points or more on Thursday Night Football.
Wan’Dale Robinson Under 44.5 Receiving Yards
Since losing rising star wide receiver Malik Nabers due to injury, the Giants have had a tough time creating passing yardage since starting Jaxson Dart. In the two games of the “Dart Era”, Giants receiver Wan’Dale Robinson has been an afterthought of the offence as he’s hauled in under 44.5 receiving yards in both games played.
Still sporting reliable hands and the ability to be an any-down receiver, Robinson hasn’t seen the uptick in yardage that many thought he might experience after Nabers went down. With a combined 44 yards through his last two games played, it’s a safe bet that he won’t tally more than his previous two weeks of play.
Fade the output of Robinson as the Giants’ passing attack continues to struggle, bet the under on his receiving yards.
A.J. Brown Anytime Touchdown Scorer
To cap off our Thursday Night Football same game parlay, we’ve got a juicy plus money pick to seal the deal, A.J. Brown as an anytime touchdown scorer.
Now, for all the skeptics out there, I hear you. While he is still a premier wide receiver talent in the NFL, there’s no ignoring the lack of output from the Ole Miss product. Largely, this has been due to the mediocre passing ability of quarterback Jalen Hurts, rather than the ability of Brown himself. That being said, if there was a game for Brown to finally explode this season, this upcoming clash with the Giants is it.
