Episode notes
Giants +6.5 Is A Week‑One Play
- Bet the Giants +6.5 versus Washington in Week 1 because matchup and trend data favor the road division dog.
- Shop for a 6.5 line and consider a small ML nibble, as trends and BetLab filters strongly support New York.
First‑Half Texans +2.5 Against Rams
- Play Texans +2.5 for the first half instead of the full game to exploit Rams' offensive rust and O-line injuries.
- Consider a halftime ML or moneyline +125 for a bigger payout if you prefer an outright first‑half winner.
Grab Packers Under Key Numbers
- Take Packers -1.5 (or anything under -3) vs. Lions while the market misprices continuity and roster changes.
- Shop numbers under three as Green Bay's continuity and offensive potential should edge Detroit in Week 1.
