The New York Giants battle the Arizona Cardinals Sunday in week 14 NFL action at MetLife Stadium in the Meadowlands.
The Arizona Cardinals need a feel good win here to snap a three-game losing streak. The Arizona Cardinals have split their last six road games. Kyler Murray is completing 66.9 percent of his passes for 2,987 yards, 22 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Murray has two or more touchdown passes in seven of his last 10 games. DeAndre Hopkins and Christian Kirk have combined for 1,517 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns while Larry Fitzgerald has 43 receptions. The Arizona Cardinals ground game is averaging 150.6 yards per contest, and Kenyan Drake leads the way with 768 yards and eight touchdowns. Defensively, Arizona is allowing 24.7 points and 359.9 yards per game. Budda Baker leads the Arizona Cardinals with 94 tackles, Haason Reddick has five sacks and Patrick Peterson has three interceptions.
The New York Giants look for a fifth straight victory to build on their lead in the NFC East. The New York Giants have lost three of their last five home games. Daniel Jones is completing 63.2 percent of his passes for 2,335 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions. Jones has one touchdown pass in his last three games. Darius Slayton and Evan Engram have combined for 1,106 receiving yards and four touchdowns while Sterling Shepard has 42 receptions. The New York Giants ground game is averaging 119.8 yards per contest, and Wayne Gallman leads the way with 504 yards and six touchdowns. Defensively, New York is allowing 22.1 points and 339 yards per game. Blake Martinez leads the New York Giants with 111 tackles, Leonard Williams has 8.5 sacks and James Bradberry has three interceptions.
The Cardinals are 9-4-2 ATS in their last 15 road games, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Giants are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog, 8-20-1 ATS in their last 29 home games and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The under is 6-0 in Cardinals last 6 road games. The under is 4-0 in Giants last 4 games overall. The Cardinals are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings in New York and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
The Arizona Cardinals are just 1-4 since their bye week and their defensive effort hasn’t always been there, allowing 28 or more points in five of their last six games. The New York Giants have quietly won four straight games, have to be thinking playoffs at this point and are allowing an average of 16.5 points during this winning streak. These are two teams heading in opposite directions, and I’m not very confident in the Cardinals right now. It’s also never easy for a west coast team to play an early spot on the east coast.
Give me the Giants and the points in a game they likely win outright.

New York Giants +2.5
