The Steelers can improve their 5-2 record when the injury hit Giants come to visit on Monday Night Football.
Best Bet
The Giants have scored ten points in two weeks and it’s hard to see them getting going against the fearsome Steelers defence.
New York QB Daniel Jones was sacked eight times last week – their first game without left tackle Andrew Thomas – and with the Steelers rush defence ranking third in the league, it’s hard to see the Giants getting much going through the air or on the ground.
There are legitimate questions about the sustainability of the Steelers offence with Russell Wilson under centre, but Wilson certainly did enough last week against the other New York team to suggest he is an upgrade on Justin Fields.
Five and a half points looks a very manageable line for the Steelers to cover.
Same Game Multi
Expecting the Steelers to opt for a run heavy offence to minimize the impact of the Giants pass rush, and the game script to also favour plenty of carries for Harris. He’s cleared 60 in five of seven games this season.
Jones only had 20 yards in a game where the Giants were destroyed last week against the Eagles but had double figure rushing attempts in the two weeks prior.
Value Bet
As described above, Jones is a very capable runner of the ball and the Giants are likely to have more success with the quarterback carrying as opposed to their running backs.
