If New York Giants Head Coach Pat Shurmur is looking for any bulletin board material this week (as if five straight losses to the Cowboys isn’t enough) he may want to reference the fact that Big Blue is currently a seven-point underdog at home to it’s hated division rival (courtesy of the Action Network). For reference on how disrespectful (although mostly fair) that number is, take into consideration that the lowly, winless New York Jets were given more a shot (6.5-point underdogs) in their week six upset of Dallas.
You’d think since the Jets so-recently knocked off the Cowboys at the same stadium, that it would cause oddsmakers to give the Giants better odds, but you (and I) would be wrong.
