Analyzing the Giants vs Steelers Same-Game Parlay for Monday Night Football in Week 8

• The floundering New York Giants visit the dominant defense of the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football (Oct. 28)
• The Giants have only scored ten points total in their last two games
• Below, see a three-leg, +458 Giants vs Steelers same-game parlay that’s all-in on the Pittsburgh defense

The New York Giants (2-5, 2-1 away, 3-4 ATS) will try to shake off some recent struggles when they head to Pennsylvania to face the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2, 2-1 home, 5-2 ATS) on Monday Night Football in Week 8. Kickoff is slated for 8:15 pm ET at Acrisure Stadium and, with the anemic New York offense facing the second-best scoring defense in the league, tonight’s Giants vs Steelers same-game parlay strings together three props that all fade the G-Men.

Giants vs Steelers SGP Picks #1 and 2: Giants Team Total Under (First & Second Half)

I considered adding the Giants’ full-game team total under 15.5 (-115) but I like the the price better when splitting it into a first-half under (6.5 at +125) and second-half under (7.5 at -145).

New York’s only offensive TD in the last nine quarters came against the leaky Cincinnati Bengals, and that major was the Giants’ only scoring play in a 17-7 Week 6 loss to Cincinnati. Last Sunday, they were demolished 28-3 by division-rival Philadelphia in one of the worst offensive performances in franchise history (119 total yards).

Tonight, they face an even better defense in a hostile environment. The Steelers are allowing just 14.4 PPG through their first seven games and it’s scary to think what TJ Watt – the current favorite in the NFL DPOY odds – and company may do to the depleted New York offensive line.

NYG vs PIT Same-Game Parlay Pick #3: Daniel Jones Under 188.5 Passing Yards

In last week’s 28-3 abomination against the Eagles, Jones threw for just 99 yards on 21 pass attempts (4.7 YPA) and was lifted from the game in favor of Drew Lock at the end of the third quarter. With left tackle Andrew Thomas on IR, Jones was sacked seven times. Jones’ ineffectiveness is a big part of why Chris Amberley’s Giants vs Steelers prediction pegged under 36.5 as his best bet.

It’s squarely within the realm of possibility that Lock plays a sizable portion of tonight’s game, and even if he doesn’t, Jones is averaging just 6.0 YPA on the season, which would necessitate 32 attempts to hit the over on 188.5.

With Russell Wilson under center for the first time, the Pittsburgh offense looked borderline dynamic against the Jets last week. The Steelers had 409 total yards, including 149 on the ground at 4.1 YPC against an excellent Jets defense. The Giants’ D is a respectable unit that ranks in the top half of the league in scoring and DVOA, but I do expect Pittsburgh to be able to move the ball and dominate time of possession, limiting Jones’ opportunities.

The New York Giants will face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers in a highly anticipated Monday Night Football matchup in Week 8 of the NFL season. As fans gear up for the game, many are looking to place bets on the outcome through same-game parlays, a popular betting option that allows bettors to combine multiple bets into one wager.

When analyzing the Giants vs Steelers same-game parlay, there are several key factors to consider. The first is the overall performance of each team so far this season. The Steelers have been dominant, boasting a perfect 6-0 record and one of the best defenses in the league. On the other hand, the Giants have struggled, with a 1-6 record and inconsistent play on both sides of the ball.

In terms of individual player performances, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been playing at a high level, throwing for over 1,600 yards and 13 touchdowns so far this season. Running back James Conner has also been a key contributor, rushing for over 400 yards and scoring five touchdowns. The Giants will need to find a way to contain these two players if they hope to have a chance at victory.

On the Giants side, quarterback Daniel Jones has shown flashes of potential but has also struggled with turnovers, throwing nine interceptions so far this season. Running back Devonta Freeman has been a bright spot for the team, rushing for over 200 yards and scoring two touchdowns in just four games since joining the team.

When it comes to betting on the game, there are several options to consider for a same-game parlay. Bettors may want to consider including bets on the point spread, over/under total points, player props such as total passing yards or touchdowns, and even specific game outcomes such as which team will score first or last.

Ultimately, the outcome of the Giants vs Steelers game will come down to which team can execute their game plan and make key plays when it matters most. With the Steelers looking like the stronger team on paper, bettors may want to consider including bets that favor Pittsburgh in their same-game parlay. However, anything can happen in football, so it’s always important to do thorough research and consider all factors before placing a bet.
