The team sits in a three way tie with the Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys for the NFC East division with just two games remaining. NFL Trend: New York Giants are 0-3 ATS in their past three games.
After a 52-27 home win against the Saints the Giants travels to Atlanta and gets routed 34-0 at a pick. New York turned the ball over four times in defeat. The total went under 49 ½ points. It was the Giants four loss in their past six games. New York has not lost three straight road games and faced a back to back road situation here on Sunday. During this slump for New York the Giants defense has fallen to 28th in the league allowing 377 yards a game. They allow 253 yards passing a game which is also 28th in the league and was exploited by the Falcons good passing attack last week. Quarterback Eli Manning has 20 touchdowns and 15 picks on the season. He has thrown for four picks the past two games. They played without running back Ahmad Bradshaw last week and he is questionable on Sunday with a sprained knee.
The Baltimore Ravens host the Giants with a record of 9-5 on the year. The team is 5-2 straight up at home. They have lost three straight games. Baltimore has clinched a playoff spot and holds a one game lead over Cincinnati with two games left to be played for the NFC north division crown. The team comes off a bad 34-17 home defeat last week to the Denver Broncos as a +3 point underdog. The total went over 47 ½ points. With the firing off offense coordinator Cam Cameron it was interesting to see how the play calling would go. Baltimore’s pattern was to throw from September through mid-November and run after Thanksgiving. They ran the ball 19 times and threw it 40 times which is flipped flopped from previous seasons. The team is turning their offense fully over to Joe Flacco and he has shown to not make plays late in the season. That’s why Baltimore had been so run heavy down the stretch for many years. Problem with a pass happy attack is the fact the Ravens has an older defense and they will be on the field longer and vulnerable late in games. Ball control was treasured in December and January in their previous strategy. It really did give Baltimore their best chance to win. Ray Rice had just 12 runs last week.
