Monday, Oct. 2
The New York Giants have had 10 days off since a blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers that dropped the G-Men to 1-2 on the season. With road games upcoming against the Dolphins and Bills in successive weeks, the Giants sorely need a victory over the Seahawks on Monday Night Football.
Seattle, meanwhile, traveled cross country after a 37-27 home win over the Panthers. The Seahawks have put up 37 in each of their last two games. Running back Kenneth Walker III rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns in the victory over Carolina and will face a Giants defense that ranks 27th against the run (138 yards per game). The Seahawks are 2-point favorites at Unibet; the total is 47.
