TNF open thread: Cowboys-Giants gambling lines and picks for tonight’s game

Week 4 in the 2024 NFL season gets going with a pivotal NFC East matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants.

After dominating in the season opener, the Cowboys have dropped two games in a row to fall to 1-2 this season. Meanwhile, the Giants have had the same result, a 1-2 record, but have had the exact opposite route to get there by losing in Weeks 1 and 2 and winning last Sunday. Coincidentally, both team’s victories have come against the Browns.

So, a lot is riding on this early-season matchup as the loser will see their playoff hopes significantly diminish.

This is your place to discuss the game with other Las Vegas Raiders fans and any gambling picks you have as the lines below are provided by FanDuel Sportsbook.

Cowboys vs. Giants

• Spread: DAL -5.5
• O/U: 45.5
• DAL ML: -240
• NYG ML: +198

Holder’s picks: NYG +5.5, Over 45.5, DAL ML

I think this will be a close game and the Giants have a good enough rushing attack to take advantage of the Cowboy’s awful run defense where the contest comes down to a late field goal. However, I’m not trusting Daniel Jones to pull off the complete upset and win outright. Also, I like Dallas’ offense to put up some points, hence the over pick.

For the injury report, the Cowboys have listed safety Markquese Bell (ankle) and cornerback Caelen Carson (shoulder) as doubtful for tonight. Meanwhile, cornerbacks Adoree’ Jackson (calf) and Andru Phillips (calf) are out while wide receiver Darius Slayton (thumb) is questionable for the Giants.
