Giants vs. Eagles Betting Preview 12/22/16 – Thursday Night Football
Betting Preview
The Giants control their own destiny in their march towards the playoffs. After having their six game winning streak snapped in a loss to Pittsburgh, they have rebounded and won their last two games.
Their defense was outstanding in their 10-7 win over Dallas two weeks ago and again when they shut down the Lions 17-6 last week. Their biggest concern is their struggling offense which scored a total of 41 points in their last three games and is ranked 27th in the league.
Quarterback Eli Manning has played well and has thrown for over 3400 yards and 25 touchdowns. In his last five games where the Giants won four of them, he has thrown 10 touchdowns and three interceptions but was held under 200 yards passing in three of the games. The Giants main problem on offense is their running game which is ranked 30th in the league while the team only scores an average of 19.4 points a game.
The Eagles’ season has turned into a disaster as they have lost five straight games and seven of their last eight overall. During that stretch, their offense hasn’t scored more than 24 points in seven of the games and their defense has given up at least 27 points in six of them.
Quarterback Carson Wentz threw no touchdown passes last week for the fourth time this year. Over the last eight games he has just five touchdown passes and has thrown 10 of his total of 13 interceptions this season.
The oddsmakers have made the Giants a 2.5 point favorite and set the total at 41.5. According to Covers.com Consensus Analysis a huge 72% of the public have no confidence in the Eagles and are backing the Giants while 62% believe the total is too low and are behind the over.
The Eagles have won five of the last seven meetings between these teams and seven of the last 10 overall.

Free picks
This is a free play on TOR.
The Jays have lost back to back 1-run games at Kansas City, but they have a favorable matchup in Thursday's series finale.
A matchup of Jose Berrios versus Cole Ragans would have looked like a sure pitcher's a week ago, but since then Ragans was lit up for seven runs on nine hits in 1 2/3 innings in home loss to Baltimore.
Berrios has been flawless, going 4-0 with a 0.85 ERA. He's allowed just one run in his last four starts.
It might be a better idea to keep the bullpens out of it and look at the 1st 5 innings.
GL,
Jesse Schule

SERVICE BIO
WHO IS THE ICEMAN? He’s no soothsayer and he doesn’t have a crystal ball, but Jesse Schule can indeed predict the future. As a professional handicapper, it’s actually part of his job description. His clients have accused him of secretly possessing Marty McFly’s Sports Almanac, but he tells us the secret to his success is thanks in part to his fascination with history. The idea that you can predict the future by studying the past is nothing new. Historians have been doing it for years.

- Perfect 5-0 Super Bowl Card (2018)

Handicapping Methodology: Jesse is not a believer in systems, programs or number crunching formulas to handicap games. He is firm in his belief that you aren't playing against the sportsbook, you are playing against the average Joe (other bettors). Jesse is notorious for attacking inflated point spreads, soft lines and totals that are a little out of whack. He also relies on a nearly photographic memory with an uncanny ability to tell you a player's history and stats dating back for decades. Anyone can look up how many touchdowns a guy has scored, Jesse can also tell you about the ones that he almost scored.
Money Management: His plays are rated based on a 1-10 star system, and he recommends wagering 0.5 percent of your bankroll per star rating. So a top rated 10* play would represent a bet equal to five percent of a player's bankroll.
Signature Plays:
AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER: This title is reserved for games with a start time between 12:00 – 4:30 ET. These are popular with action junkies who are dying for the games to get underway.
The TERMINATOR: Jesse's signature totals play, the Terminator has established a reputation as one of the most consistent winners in Schule's repertoire.
TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE: These plays represent a game where the stats show a significant trend which isn't reflected in the price.
GRIM REAPER BLOWOUT: His signature play reserved for medium to large favorites. High percentage plays for those who don't mind laying chalk.
HOT DIGGITY DOG: This is the Iceman's signature underdog play. About as rare as strawberries in December, you'll want to grab these whenever they are available
