Detroit Lions (DET) vs New York Giants (NYG) 12/18/16 NFL Picks & Predictions


Detroit Lions over New York Giants: Concern over the finger of Stafford has an impact on this line. Concern of how many close games Det plays an issue but not for me. First of all they are winning those games. Det is 9-1 in their last 10. We are not spotting points we are getting them big difference. Det seemed to struggle last week against a bad Chic team at home and that as well has an impact on this line. The Det defense has not given up more than 20 points in 7 weeks. Meanwhile everyone saw NYG beat the Dall team 10-7 in prime time and that also has contributed to over inflating this line. Although NYG are 6-1 s/u at home their largest margin of victory has been 6 points and that was to the aforementioned bad Chic team. I have this game at 2.5 giving us excellent value.
