My *small* Giants bet is just based on a trend.

40 bucks, let's see.

No, look ahead angles don't usually work well late in the year. If th Chargers lose this game and the Chiefs,who are big favorites win, the game next week is meaningless.

Giants team on paper is not as bad as their record. Barkley is due for a breakout. Chargers are missing Keenan Allen it seems. Game could be pretty tight.

Barkley isn't breaking out anywhere, the Giants have no offensive line, that's been the problem all year.

This game has under written all over it. Chargers coming off the big win in cinci with the look ahead thursday KC game with inexperienced coach...No way in hell i would lay the points. There will be more giant fans too. But I cant back them. Tease up to whatever 15, 16, 19, 22 should be good. But under way better. No keenan allen too. Plus if it is a total shitshow by nyg then the under is golden. 23-16 type final or even something like 23-6

I never play totals but this week seems too easy.

Unders
Saints jets
Lions broncos
Skins cowboys
Giants chargers
Bears pack (lean)

Overs
Raiders chiefs
Bills bucs
Falcons panthers
Niners bengals (lean)

I wouldnt touch
Jags titans
Seahawks Texans

Look ahead and Big games are basically the same things. If you don’t think Thursday night’s game between KC and LA Chargers is a big deal then you haven’t been in the game long enough. This is the classic look ahead situation where a team actually beats you twice because you either were looking ahead or deflated you lost to them and lose the game afterwards. Its the classic Team A is in Team B’s head scenario. KC has been in these situations the last 5-6 years. This is a new thing for these Chargers.

If th Chargers lose and kc wins the Thursday game has no meaning. You see almost every game late in the year is a big game on the NFL that's why look ahead angles don't work late in the season. Every game is close to critical. Th Chargers aren't 6-0.

Glennon has no business even being a backup in this league. He is absolutely terrible, Last week, he could have thrown 4 picks if the defenders held on to the ball. Every pass he threw is just a lob.

The Giants offense is so bad they only had 2 or 3 downfield throws with open receivers and Glennon missed them all by a country mile.

That said, the Giants defense played very well last week, and the Chargers defense is bad. Could see this being under 10. But not touching it.

Glennon sucks but th Giants have no offensive line and their receivers are hurt too. He's good enough to be a backup quarterback.

The Chargers we're in the playoffs just 2 years ago, this is not anything new for them.

Was it Philip Rivers or Justin Herbert?? If you have a new coach and trigger man at QB, then that playoff run doesn’t count towards Thursday night.

Most of the roster was the same.

I could see the Giants getting blown out and some firings on Monday. This game has blow out written all over it.

I’d be shocked if Gettleman and Judge are not fired tomorrow.

Seattle Slew · 12-12-21, 07:03 PM

The GM is done after the season. Word is the owner doesn't want to fire another coach after 2 seasons, like he did with McAdoo and Shermer. But Judge looks lost out there.

LOL, the announcer mentions the spread as the Giants had a shot at the back door cover and Glennon throws a pick.

Good call

Finally the Chargers win and do what they are supposed to do in a tough spot. This version of the Chargers must be different than the rest. Maybe this version of the Chargers can win some playoff games and make a Super Bowl soon. Talent has never been the problem, but losing games they should win easily has been.
