I know I have written a lot about the dangers of playing Sunday Night games because often folks load up too much on these plays in hopes of making back losses accrued during the day, but I do think we have a nice situation for Jacksonville tonight.
-Injury to Keith Hamilton that has hurt a formerly strong rush defense. Fred Taylor has really looked strong all season and if the rest of the front 7 doesn't step up, it should be a long night for New York.
-Injury to Ike Hilliard. May not seem like a huge loss, but he does have the third most 3rd down catches in the NFC, i.e. he is a clutch receiver.
-Scoring differential. Both of these teams are 3-4, but the Jags have outscored their opponents by 2 points per game while the Giants have been outscored by a relatively high 5 points per game. They also have scored a pitiful 32 points in three home games this season.
-Jacksonville is the better team. At least I think so. I have watched both teams a few times each and I just plainly think that the Jags are better. With 3 points being given I will take it tonight to put a nice cherry on top of a good day of NFL plays. Good luck.
Jacksonville +3 over GIANTS 1*
