Giants To Lean On Barkley

For the Giants to have any prayer of putting together a decent offensive showing, they’ll need Saquon Barkley to have a big day. In three of his last five games, he’s gone over the 52.5 yards rushing that he’s listed at. Last week was his high water mark of the season, where he churned out 102 yards on 21 carries against the Bears.

After only picking up 38 yards in his first career game against Washington, he’s gone over the 52.5 yards mark in the following three occasions. His yardage for those contests was as follows – 170, 189, 57 (this season).

With quarterback Jake Fromm making just his second career start, and not being in the system for very long, expect the G-Men to feed Barkley early and often. Though he hasn’t had quite the year that he’s capable of, building off last week’s 102 yard performance isn’t out of the realm of possibilities.

  • The Pick: Saquon Barkley Over 52.5 Yards (-115)

Gibson Producing Touchdowns

Both teams are currently struggling, but it’s hard to fully trust an offense in New York that is expected to be led by QB Jake Fromm. He was miserable in replace of Mike Glennon, going 6-for-17 for just 25 yards passing in his first career start.

Washington has put up between 14-20 points in all of their last six games, compared to a Giants squad that has scored 13 or fewer points in six of their last seven outings.

Antonio Gibson missed last week while on the COVID-19 list, but wasn’t listed on the injury report Saturday, which is a good sign as he’s been dealing with a hip injury. Gibson hasn’t lit the world on fire in his last three games from a yardage standpoint, but he’s had a TD in three of his last four outings.

There’s a distinct possibility that Washington loads the box up to stop Saquon Barkley, as they don’t fear Fromm. Should they be successful in that regard, there might not be many plays on offense. That gives Gibson more opportunities to run the rock, so he should be able to find pay dirt this weekend.

  • The Pick: Antonio Gibson Anytime TD Scorer (-115)

Scary Terry Needs A Touchdown

Terry McLaurin hasn’t produced his typical eyepopping numbers of late compared to earlier in the campaign. He had at least 100 yards receiving in four of his first ten games – yet has failed to crack more than 61 yards in the last six contests (last week).

He’s also not found the end zone since November 21st, which is something the team will likely try to rectify as they go into the off-season, much like how the Seahawks fed DK Metcalf three TD’s last week.

McLaurin has, however, scored at least one touchdown in each of his team’s last four games as a favorite against NFC opponents. He’s also facing a toothless defense that’s given up at least 20 points in five straight games, with three such games allowing 29 or more points. In three of the games that he’s found the end zone this season, he scored Washington’s first TD.

  • The Pick: Terry McLaurin First TD Scorer (+750)
