As much as I'd love to spend this thread talking about turning $800 into $2300, which I did on the Jets on Monday...

...I'm going to present an entirely different argument for taking the Giants ML here as well.
Yes, the Giants have looked like shit all year - we know this. However, the Chicago Bears are possibly the most overrated team in the league, no questions asked. Jay Cutler, aside from being a whining bitch, is consistently voted "most likely to throw interceptions", right alongside such other candidates like Phillip Rivers and Kyle Orton.
Jay Cutler is not a winner, it is that simple. Eli Manning, although going 0-5 to start the season, is a winner. He's proven that by winning the Super Bowl. The pressure is on CHICAGO ONLY here - a loss to CHI would mean that they REALLY suck - a loss for the Giants would be no surprise. The pressure is on Cutler, and he's going to penetrate it up and/or pretend to hurt his back again - or possibly pull a Donovan McNabb and throw up on the field (depending on how many Marlboros he's smoked today so far). The G-Men will put up 24 to start the first half, Chicago will put up 2 meaningless garbage touchdowns at the end to push the game over. 37-17 final.
4 units Giants +7
4 units Giants ML +320
4 units over 47.5
