The Giants could only muster 12 points against the 49ers in Week 3, including two field goals, an eight-yard score by running back Matt Breida, and a missed two-point conversion. Quarterback Daniel Jones threw for 137 yards and an interception. So far this season, Jones is completing just 64.9% of his passes for 570 yards, two touchdowns, and four interceptions. He threw for over 300 and two scores against the Cardinals in Week 2, but he’s thrown for less than 140 yards in two games this season. The Giants are underdogs with NFL Week 4 odds of +1.5 on the spread.

Looking at their Week 3 performances, Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith completed 23-of-36 passes for 296 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, while running back Kenneth Walker III ran for 97 yards on 18 carries, scoring twice. Their offense has been rolling the past two weeks, thanks to Smith and Walker III. Walker scored two touchdowns in Week 2 and 3, while Smith threw for another 328 in their Week 2 road overtime win against the Lions. The Giants allow 138 rushing yards per game, which is the sixth-most in the league. The Seahawks are favorites with a -125 moneyline and look to win their third straight game. 

Key Players Missing

• No key players missing

As mentioned, the Seahawks got off to a rough start to the year but have been excellent over their last two games. That Week 1 performance is in the rear-view mirror now. Meanwhile, the Giants have been sputtering this season. They had an incredible come-from-behind victory in Week 2 but were massive favorites in that game. Through the first six quarters of their season, they were outscored 60-0. In Weeks 1 and 3 combined, they’ve lost 70-12. That said, let's take a closer look at our Giants vs. Seahawks Predictions and NFL Picks: 

⭐ NFL Pick 1: Seahawks -1.5 ATS (-110) at BetMGM

The Giants have had plenty of time to prepare for this one, and while the Seahawks defense isn’t as strong as the Cowboys or 49ers (the teams they’ve lost to this season), it’s hard to trust this offense. The offensive line will be without Andrew Thomas again as they look to fend off the pass rush from Uchenna Nwosu and Jarran Reed. The team is also likely without running back Saquon Barkley as he continues to deal with his ankle injury. The Seahawks offense has too many receiving weapons, along with their two-headed ground game. Given that the Giants have struggled to score points overall this season, we’ll side with the Seahawks at -1.5 ATS at BetMGM.

⭐ NFL Pick 2: Under 47 total points (-110) at Caesars

When it comes to offensive capabilities, both the Browns and Steelers have been lighting up the scoreboard. The Browns put up 24 points against a solid Cincinnati Bengals defense, while the Steelers managed 27 against the Buffalo Bills. Moreover, the Over has hit in 4 of the last 5 head-to-head matchups between these two teams. With key offensive players like Baker Mayfield for the Browns and Najee Harris for the Steelers in good form, the Over 38.5 total points at Caesars is a bet that aligns well with recent trends and player performances.

⭐ NFL Player Prop: Darren Waller anytime TD scorer (+260) at FanDuel

Brought in to be a top target for Jones this offseason, Waller hasn’t done too much yet. Through three weeks, he has 12 receptions for 132 yards, most of which came in in their Week 2 comeback against the Cardinals, where he had six receptions for 76 yards. He has yet to score a touchdown this season, but against the Seahawks, the Giants best bet will be getting him the ball. He’ll matchup with Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks, who hasn’t allowed a touchdown this season but has allowed 13 receptions for 78 yards on 15 targets. This looks like the spot we finally see Waller score, and taking him as an anytime TD scorer at FanDuel at +260 is incredible value.
