The Giants and Jets put Garden State pride on the line this Sunday at Met Life Stadium as the two squads hook up in Week 8 NFL action.

The Jets are fresh off the bye week after handing the Philadelphia Eagles their first loss of the season in a 20-14 upset as 6.5-point home underdogs.

Robert Saleh’s team improved to 3-3, while picking up its third straight cover, all in the ‘dog role.

The Giants won last week for only the second time this season — a 14-7 home triumph over the Washington Commanders.

New York’s defense stepped up again by allowing 14 points or fewer for a second straight week after yielding 24 points or more in each of its first five games.

Daniel Jones won’t return at quarterback for the Giants after missing the last two games with a neck injury. Backup Tyrod Taylor has managed two underdog covers the past two weeks against Buffalo and Washington, although the offense has tallied only 23 total points.

Under Saleh, the Jets have been favored six times since 2021 prior to Sunday’s matchup. The Jets own a 3-3 record in those games, while going 1-1 on the road.

Yes, this game is played at the Jets’ stadium, but they have done most of their damage as an underdog (4-2 against the spread) and now you have to trust Zach Wilson as a favorite.

This will likely be a low-scoring affair, but let’s take the points with the Giants here against the Jets.
