The New Orleans Saints head to MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Giants. Two teams vying for a top 10 draft pick this season and more so the Giants looking to lock up the #1 pick. Both teams come into this game decimated by injuries. Below are the Saints at Giants Preview and Predictions.
The New York Giants announced this week several key players who are done for the season. First, defensive end Dexter Lawerence III and tight end Theo Johnson were put on the IR with season-ending injuries. For this week, rookie stand-out wide receiver Malik Nabers is questionable with a hip injury. Additionally, cornerback Deonte Bank is out this week with a rib injury.
Meanwhile, the Saints lost Taysom Hill for the season with a torn ACL. Additionally, wide receiver Bub Means is out for this game. The Saints are already without Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed. It will more than likely be the Alvin Kamara show for the Saints this week against a struggle rush defense.

Best Bets
Boy if there ever was a game NOT on the television this week this one may take the cake. But hey, we here at the Sports Gambling Podcast Network pick every game every week. As I mentioned above, both teams are decimated by injuries and the Giants are vying for the number one pick in the upcoming draft.
I believe points will be at a premium in this game and the numbers are backing it up. Thus far this season, the Giants are 5-1 to the Under in their home games averaging 10 points per game and allowing 25 points per game. Meanwhile, the Saints are a profitable team this season to the Over but as I mentioned they lack the weapons. This will be a game where I expect both running backs to run the ball early and often. Take the Under!
Best Bet: Saints/Giants Under 41
Player Prop Best Bet
Alvin Kamara Over 82.5 Rushing Yards
Kamara comes into this game with a huge matchup advantage on the ground. The Giants’ rush defense ranks amongst the worst in the entire football league. Over the course of the season, the Giants are allowing 118 rushing yards per game. However, since Week 7 the Giants are allowing 154.5 rushing yards per game. In that span, five different running backs have gone over this projection. I expect Kamara to have a field day against the Giants.
