Betting Odds
Point Spread: Giants +7/Bills -7
Total Line: 46.5
The Giants finally scored their first win of the 2015 season last week, taking down the Redskins in a 32-21 victory. It would prove to be a much needed win for New York, who fell at the hands of Dallas and Atlanta in the previous two weeks. Quarterback, Eli Manning completed 23 of 32 passes for 279 yards and two touchdowns. Wide receivers Rueben Randle and Odell Beckham Jr. took advantage of the perfect play from Manning, finishing with 116 and 79 yards, respectively as well as a single touchdown each.
This victory makes the Giants 1-2-0 in the 2015 season so far, with official statistics showing that the aforementioned Manning has completed 70 of the 108 attempted passes he’s made so far. Rashad Jennings has carried 33 for 96 yards so far, while Andre Williams has carried 26 for 86 yards. Both have scored a single touchdown each in addition. Meanwhile, on the receiving end of things, Shane Vereen has claimed 122 yards on 12 receptions, while the previously mentioned Beckham has received 19 for 269 yards altogether and two touchdowns.
In a 41-14 victory, the Bills returned to their winning ways against the Miami Dolphins last week. It would be also be a much needed win for the team after Buffalo fell at the hands of New England only the week before. Tyrod Taylor was without a doubt the team’s star player against the Dolphins. He threw for 277 yards and three scores in his first-ever NFL road start. However, the Bills’ defensive play was also on par, forcing Miami’s Ryan Tannehill to throw three interceptions that contributed to their defeat.
The Bills will be looking to secure a third victory of the 2015 season this week against the Giants, although there are concerns surrounding number 25 running back, LeSean McCoy. His current hamstring problem meant that he didn’t shine as much as he could have against the Dolphins, although he has carried 43 for 146 yards this season so far. Karlos Williams is definitely coming up the ranks though, as he has carried 24 for the Bills over 186 yards and managed to claim three touchdowns in the process.

Free NFL Pick
The Bills win last week was impressive, but as is usually is the case after a blowout win the books have inflated this line. The Bills have lots of weapons, but on paper they will most likely be without their starting RB LeSean McCoy and their No. 1 WR Sammy Watkins is expected to miss. The Giants could be 3-0 if not for late collapses in their first two games against Dallas and Atlanta.
