New York Giants Betting
The 2008 New York Giants are the defending Super Bowl champions and enter the season as underdogs to repeat with very little respect from bettors. Sportsbooks predict the New York Giants will win 9 regular season games in 2008. Preseason betting action has been heavy on the Giants winning less than 9 games in a very tough NFC East with a depleted pass rush.

The New York Giants return their core offensive unit with QB Eli Manning (3336 yards, 23 TDs, 20 INTs) behind an underrated offensive line that had the 4th ranked rushing (134.3 ypg) attack. The Giants' RB Brandon Jacobs and Derrick Ward were both injured last season but the offensive line continued to create holes for however was running. Giants running backs averaged 4.6ypc in 2007 and will average a similar amount this year. TE Jeremy Shockey was traded after the impressive stretch run play of TE Kevin Boss.
The New York Giants defense carried them on the road to the Super Bowl and victory behind a high pressure defensive line that is the model on how to beat Tom Brady's Patriots. NY Giants defense had a league high 53 sacks last year along with numerous QB pressures. The Giants will miss retired DE Strahan and injured DE Usi Umenyiora out for the season with a knee injury. The question is whether emerging star Justin Tuck (65 tackles, 10 Sacks) and Mathias Kiwanuka (46 tackles, 4.5 Sacks) can step it up.
