SHOULD have a decent game in Dallas later but personally don’t rate Dallas at all this year.
They have nobody to throw to and can’t rely on Zeke all year. The Giants on the other hand have one of the best offences on paper if you look at their players individually.
Barkley the 1st round phenom, OBJ who made himself in this league against the Cowboys, Shepard a very good slot receiver and Engram who may as well be a receiver at the tight end position.
Match-up nightmare for this Cowboys team. McCaffery gave them fits last week so expect a big game from Saquon.

? How bad is the Giants O! They’ve got the weapons yet they just look so poor moving the ball.
Well that was woeful watching checking back on the highlights from last night. Not sure it was a good Cowboy performance or just an inept one from Eli and co. Barkley with over 10 receptions out the backfield is quite baffling too.
Tonight’s MNF see’s Seattle come to Chicago in their second road game to open up the season. A loss in Denver last week was a likely eye opener for them, and they come into this one without KJ Wright and Bobby Wagner on defense. That is two pro-bowl linebackers who are going to be sorely missed when defending the run. That should leave big holes open for tonights prop man Jordan Howard. He was on the field for 70% of the snaps in Green Bay last week, amassing 82 yards on 15 carries. Another favourable matchup but shop around if you can. 365 are an awful 74.5 @ 8/13. with these bets its not about betting the price but more the number, but luckily we have Betfred who are giving us 70.5 @ 10/11.
Jordan Howard Over 70.5 Rushing Yards @ 10/11 @ Betfred – 4.4 points
Jordan Howard Over 99 Rushing Yards/Tyler Lockett Over 52 Receiving Yards @ 19/5 @ 365 – 1 point
Apologies. Second bet is a #YourOdds special @ William Hill
I only have paddy power who are 80.5 @ evens . Think I’ll just give it a miss tonight
No surprise to see vikes signing dan Bailey today. Been stung too many times over years by inept kickers. Good move by zimmer
Didn’t realise they got him wrapped up and still can’t believe the Cowboys cut him. Vikes have struggled with FG & PAT since Walsh missed against Seattle in the playoffs couple seasons back.
@lee-cunliffe, hows things mate? I had Carlson in my fantasy team ? Currently winning but need Robinson to stay under 14 points?
I’m good mate. Still check in every day but enough tips on football and stuff without my contribution. Tough start this season for me saints been a shock. I honestly thought Carlson would be great. He smashed records in college and we traded up to get him. But a solid experienced kicker is what’s needed for teams wanting go all way. Hopefully he comes back stronger
Not quite wrapped up he is going in for a medical but it’s pretty much a case of as long as he not got 1 leg that’s gone shorter than the other he will sign. Zimmer was ruthless in his press conference but if u want win you got do it. Goes back longer than Blair Walsh I’m old enough to remwmber the Gary Anderson miss in the championship game back in 97 or 98 I was in my teens but vikes were favs to win it all back then. Misses a chip shot to put us 10 pts up with mins remaining. Thanks it and rest is history. Can’t afford for history like that to come back around
Tonight’s game I fancy Chicago to cover. Bobby Wagner is out which will really hurt Seattle. Think you are right with Howard he could have a field day.
Chicago -5 10/11
Howard first rd 10/1
Chicago 23-17 100/1
Enjoy the game
@jordan nothing for round 3 mate?
