Bills vs. Giants Player Prop
A prop bet I’m looking at for this game is James Cook’s rushing prop with a value of 56.5 yards.
Through five games James Cook has carried the ball 61 times for 292 yards. So far, he is 13th among running backs in yards. Considering that Cook has a great matchup against the Giants’ rush defense, I view this as a fantastic opportunity to get a bet down on the over on his prop 56.5 rushing yards.
The Prop: James Cook Over 56.5 Rushing Yards (-117)
Bills vs. Giants Predictions
Since the lines have opened, the Bills have moved from -10.5 point favorites to their current line of -14.5 (-110). Some of that line change is due to Giants QB Daniel Jones being ruled out for this game.
The Bills should be ready to get back up after a disappointing trip to London and a loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Giants have struggled all season, and now they will be without their starting quarterback. This could be a spot where Buffalo bounces back in a huge way.
