New York Giants Moneyline

The Giants are +132 underdogs to the Vikings on the moneyline. As you’ll recall, New York lost a thrilling Week 16 game against the Vikings by just two points.

Back-breaking turnovers killed the Giants in their first contest in Minnesota. Although tight end Daniel Bellinger turned the ball over on a marauding catch and run, the Giants were in the game until the final snap.

Unfortunately, Daniel Jones threw an interception into the end zone on 4th down to end the Giants comeback hopes.

That being said, the Giants have every reason to remain confident heading into Wild Card Weekend. Brian Daboll’s team went toe-to-toe with the Vikings once already and nearly pulled off the victory. There is a ton of value on the New York Giants moneyline heading into Sunday afternoon.

Nevertheless, the G-men will need to control the clock to pull off the upset. Enter Saquon Barkley.

Saquon Barkley Over 90 Rushing Yards

The catalyst of the New York Giants offense, Barkley will be relied on heavily in this matchup. The former 4th overall pick had a resurgent season, rushing for 1312 yards and 10 touchdowns after missing large parts of the past two years through injury. Head coach Brian Daboll will lean on Barkley to move the chains and keep his on schedule.

After all, Saquon Barkley took 14 carries for 84 yards and a touchdown when these teams last met.

Furthermore, Barkley was given an extra week to recover after sitting out the Giants week 18 game. He should be ready to go on Sunday.

Kirk Cousins Over 250 Passing Yards

Although Wink Martindale’s aggressive, blitzing defense will do everything it can to shut down Kirk Cousins, the Vikings quarterback will get his yards on Sunday afternoon.

Cousins averaged 267 yards per game, on 7.1 yards per attempt this season. Should the Vikings trail in this football game, they’ll rely heavily on Cousins arm to have a shot at victory.

Moreover, Dalvin Cook remains questionable with a banged up knee. If Cook is hobbled, Kirk Cousins is likely to get plenty of opportunity to air it out against a vulnerable Giants secondary.
