Giants' Carter coy on MNF benching: 'Shit happens'

<p>The Giants welcome back Jaxson Dart for a short road trip to Foxborough to take on the AFC East-leading Patriots. These two teams are at opposite ends of the NFL standings, but there's still plenty of intrigue as they're each led by one of the league's brightest young stars at quarterback.</p><p>Let's get to our pick against the spread, touchdown scorers, and player props for Monday Night Football. </p><blockquote><p>👉 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268"><strong>Check out all of the markets available for Monday Night Football on theScore Bet here</strong></a></p></blockquote><figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796821/Game_Picks-Blue.jpg?ts=1754581734" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796821/Game_Picks-Blue.jpg?ts=1754581734 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796821/Game_Picks-Blue.jpg?ts=1754581734 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796821/Game_Picks-Blue.jpg?ts=1754581734 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796821/Game_Picks-Blue.jpg?ts=1754581734 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796821/Game_Picks-Blue.jpg?ts=1754581734 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> <span class="article-segment--image-attribution"></span></figcaption></figure><figure class="article-segment--embed"><iframe title="Game 5 (Copy)" aria-label="Table" id="datawrapper-chart-pWy6A" src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/pWy6A/1/" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;" height="126" data-external="1"></iframe><script type="text/javascript">window.addEventListener("message",function(a){if(void 0!==a.data["datawrapper-height"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll("iframe");for(var t in a.data["datawrapper-height"])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data["datawrapper-height"][t]+"px";r.style.height=d}}});</script></figure><h3>🏈 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268">Pick: Giants (+7.5)</a>
</h3><p>I'll side with the Giants and the points despite knowing the Patriots are a much better team. However, New England will be without rookie left tackle Will Campbell and left guard Jared Wilson. Campbell has been exceptional in his first season, and we've yet to see how the Patriots' offense operates without Drake Maye's blind-side protector.</p><div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div><p>New York's front seven had high expectations entering the season with talented pass-rushers Abdul Carter, Kayvon Thibodeaux, and Brian Burns. Thibodeaux is out Monday, but Carter and Burns can be dangerous and could feast on a beat-up Patriots' offensive line.</p><p>Although the Giants have 10 losses on the season, a lot of teams have found them tough to beat. They went to overtime against the Lions, lost by seven to the Packers, lost to the Bears by four on the road, and nearly stunned the Broncos in Mile High. I trust that they can hang tough against the Patriots, who failed to cover against other bad teams like the Bengals, Jets, and Falcons in three of the past four weeks.</p><figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796848/Touchdown_Scorers-Blue.jpg?ts=1754583115" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796848/Touchdown_Scorers-Blue.jpg?ts=1754583115 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796848/Touchdown_Scorers-Blue.jpg?ts=1754583115 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796848/Touchdown_Scorers-Blue.jpg?ts=1754583115 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796848/Touchdown_Scorers-Blue.jpg?ts=1754583115 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796848/Touchdown_Scorers-Blue.jpg?ts=1754583115 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> <span class="article-segment--image-attribution"></span></figcaption></figure><p><em>NFL news editor Brenden Deeg is our "Anytime TD Guy," providing touchdown scorer props all season long.</em></p><figure class="article-segment--embed"><iframe title="New York Giants (Copy)" aria-label="Table" id="datawrapper-chart-8ldzs" src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/8ldzs/1/" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;" height="99" data-external="1"></iframe><script type="text/javascript">window.addEventListener("message",function(a){if(void 0!==a.data["datawrapper-height"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll("iframe");for(var t in a.data["datawrapper-height"])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data["datawrapper-height"][t]+"px";r.style.height=d}}});</script></figure><h3>🙌 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268">Bet: Anytime TD (+260)</a>
</h3><p>Dart returns as New York's starter after a two-game absence due to a concussion. The Giants are likely to be more careful about using him as a runner, but these odds are too good to pass up. He has seven rushing touchdowns in seven starts this season, and he ranks fifth among all quarterbacks in scrambles per game.</p><figure class="article-segment--embed"><iframe title="New England Patriots (Copy) (Copy) (Copy)" aria-label="Table" id="datawrapper-chart-UXm6z" src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/UXm6z/1/" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;" height="99" data-external="1"></iframe><script type="text/javascript">window.addEventListener("message",function(a){if(void 0!==a.data["datawrapper-height"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll("iframe");for(var t in a.data["datawrapper-height"])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data["datawrapper-height"][t]+"px";r.style.height=d}}});</script></figure><h3>🙌 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268">Bet: Anytime TD (+275)</a>
</h3><p>Hollins leads New England in receiving yards over the last three games (200) while playing over 83.3% of the snaps. Even with Kayshon Boutte back in the lineup last week, Hollins led all Patriots wideouts in snaps. He's carved out a crucial role in this offense and will face a Giants defense that's allowed the fourth-most receiving yards to wide receivers.</p><figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796841/player_props-Blue.jpg?ts=1754582787" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796841/player_props-Blue.jpg?ts=1754582787 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796841/player_props-Blue.jpg?ts=1754582787 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796841/player_props-Blue.jpg?ts=1754582787 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796841/player_props-Blue.jpg?ts=1754582787 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/796841/player_props-Blue.jpg?ts=1754582787 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> <span class="article-segment--image-attribution"></span></figcaption></figure><figure class="article-segment--embed"><iframe title="New York Giants (Copy) (Copy)" aria-label="Table" id="datawrapper-chart-gZmxp" src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/gZmxp/1/" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;" height="99" data-external="1"></iframe><script type="text/javascript">window.addEventListener("message",function(a){if(void 0!==a.data["datawrapper-height"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll("iframe");for(var t in a.data["datawrapper-height"])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data["datawrapper-height"][t]+"px";r.style.height=d}}});</script></figure><h3>🏈 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268">Bet: Over 0.5 sacks</a>
</h3><p>As mentioned, the Patriots' offensive line is banged up, and Burns has 13 sacks on the season. That's a bad combination for Maye, who has taken the fourth-most sacks this year (37).</p><figure class="article-segment--embed"><iframe title="New England Patriots (Copy) (Copy) (Copy)" aria-label="Table" id="datawrapper-chart-JxjbA" src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/JxjbA/1/" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;" height="99" data-external="1"></iframe><script type="text/javascript">window.addEventListener("message",function(a){if(void 0!==a.data["datawrapper-height"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll("iframe");for(var t in a.data["datawrapper-height"])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data["datawrapper-height"][t]+"px";r.style.height=d}}});</script></figure><h3>🏈 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268">Bet: Over 1.5 receptions</a>
</h3><p>Douglas has two or more receptions in eight of 11 games this season, so this total seems very low for a player that involved in the offense, especially at plus money. It's definitely possible to pass on the Giants' secondary - it gives up the eighth-most receptions per game (12.42) to wide receivers.</p><figure class="article-segment--embed"><iframe title="New England Patriots (Copy)" aria-label="Table" id="datawrapper-chart-2btUK" src="https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/2btUK/1/" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;" height="99" data-external="1"></iframe><script type="text/javascript">window.addEventListener("message",function(a){if(void 0!==a.data["datawrapper-height"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll("iframe");for(var t in a.data["datawrapper-height"])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data["datawrapper-height"][t]+"px";r.style.height=d}}});</script></figure><h3>🏈 <a href="https://about.thescore.bet/sportsbook-redirect/?%24canonical_url=%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Forganization%2Funited-states%2Fcompetition%2Fnfl%2Fevent%2F33a01a1a-b8f9-4181-8188-d8103d3956c2&amp;campaign=thescore_content&amp;customer_campaign=article&amp;%7Echannel=thescore-content&amp;tags=3412268">Bet: Longest rush over 14.5 yards</a>
</h3><p>The Giants give up the most rushes of 20-plus yards in the NFL, allowing one per game on average, and they allow 6.24 yards per carry, which is once again the worst mark in the league. Henderson is as explosive a running back as you'll find and should be able to break one off for at least 15 yards despite injuries to New England's offensive line.</p><p><em>US: Must be 21+.

"But in life, you got to understand how quickly things come or how long it comes, it could be taken at any point in time."</p><p>"So I'm never comfortable in a situation I'm in.

<p><em>NFL news editor Brenden Deeg is our "Anytime TD Guy," providing touchdown scorer props all season long.</em></p><p>I'm now 7-for-7 when picking tight ends to score against the Bengals' defense this season after Hunter Henry found the end zone Sunday.

</h3><p>Kelce has looked great in recent weeks, recording 23 catches and two touchdowns on 32 targets over his last four games. He even got some red-zone rushing opportunities against the Colts.

</h3><p>Let's roll with a long shot on the Bengals' side during the nightcap. With Ja'Marr Chase out of the lineup last week, Tinsley played 74% of the team's snaps, ran 30 routes, and scored a touchdown. Now, Tee Higgins will be sidelined Thursday, opening the door for Tinsley to once again shine in this pass-heavy offense. Baltimore has allowed the fourth-most targets and sixth-most receptions to opposing wideouts in 2025.</p><p><em>US: Must be 21+. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER; Hope is here.
