    Analysis

    DraftKings. We’re getting a buy-low spot on Puka Nacua’s reception line for Week 2. After the entire Rams passing game put up a dud in Australia, I’m expecting a total bounce-back with the extra days to prepare. Nacua cleared this in 12/16 games last season, and has at least seven catches in 14 straight home regular season games, a streak that dates back to December 2023. I don’t see the Giants repeating their ball control dominance against the Rams, and their secondary did struggle in coverage. Big time get right spot for the Rams offense.

    Receptions
    Picked: Sep 16 @ 12:35pm

    Analysis

    Isaiah Likely had eight receptions on eight targets in his Giants debut. Even with Malik Nabers back, it’s clear that Likely will be Jaxson Dart’s go to guy/safety blanket. Los Angeles allowed a four receptions on seven targets to the Niners tight ends in Australia and we can except Likely to get more attention this week. Aaron Donald may play for Los Angeles but no Myles Garrett so as long as the Giants o-line can protect Dart, the targets will be there for Likely.

    Picked: Sep 16 @ 3:21pm

    Analysis

    Based on Week 1 alone, the Giants look like the side you want to be on, but this line was Rams -9.5 on the lookahead board last week. The late travel to Australia strategy which didn't work, but the travel was done that way as to be better for the Rams when they get back to Pacific Time Zone. 10 days off and against a Giants team, which looked great --- vs. an awful Cowboys defense. The Giants had 37.5 minutes of possession vs. Dallas, who allowed the G-Men to convert 9 of 11 third downs. Shouldn't have been a surprise as the Cowboys were 32nd in that category last year. But the Rams were 7th and won't let the Giants keep it that long.

    Picked: Sep 16 @ 4:25pm

    Analysis

    The Giants won last week, beating the Cowboys, and I'm sure everybody's going to like them this week. Also, the Rams struggled in Week 1 against the 49ers in Australia. But me liking the Giants has everything to do with what John Harbaugh has done for the Giants, merging all their early-round draft picks with key free agents, like his former Ravens at fullback and tight end. Jaxson Dart looked the best I've ever seen him as a quarterback. He was in control. He knew where to go with the football, and every time he was right in his choice. The Giants play in Hollywood, which is a perfect backdrop for Dart and Cam Skattebo. The Giants Super Bowl run makes a statement in LA.

    Analysis

    The Rams were embarrassed in Australia by the 49ers. But this team remains the Super Bowl favorite. Expect an emphatic answer from Matthew Stafford and the defense, even without Myles Garrett. The Giants ran through a sloppy Cowboys defense; this will be a true test for the young Jaxson Dart.
