Giants vs. Steelers Odds, Predictions & Best Bets For Monday Night Football

The Pittsburgh Steelers look to keep the momentum with Russell Wilson in at quarterback when they host Daniel Jones and the New York Giants on Monday Night Football for Week 8 of the 2024 NFL season. 

The Steelers (5-2) replaced Justin Fields with a now-healthy Wilson, and the team scored a season-high 37 points in a blowout win over the Jets. The Giants (2-5), meanwhile, are mired in an offensive outage, scoring just 10 points in the last two weeks combined. 

Pittsburgh is at -6 in the latest Giants vs. Steelers NFL odds with an Over/Under of 36.5 points, down five points from earlier in the week. 

Bookies.com veteran NFL handicapper Adam Thompson – who has hit on a whopping 60.2% of his NFL picks five years running and is past 60% again through seven weeks this season, reveals his plays for this intriguing Monday night matchup. 

Giants vs. Steelers Betting Predictions

Giants vs. Steelers Point Spread

The Giants lost their top offensive linemen before facing the Eagles and the offense scored three points. Not a coincidence. Here comes perhaps the top 1-2 edge-rushing combo in the NFL. If they can hold Aaron Rodgers and his weapons to 15 points at home in prime time, they should limit Daniel Jones to less. 

Russell Wilson’s entrance into the Steelers added a passing attack, and they scored a season-high 37 against a Jets defense that’s far more dangerous than these Giants. Back Pittsburgh to cover at home in the top play for MNF.

Giants vs. Steelers Over/Under

This total took a nosedive since opening at 41.5 points. Still, only two Giants games all season have even hit 37 points. 

But the Steelers scored 37 by themselves in Wilson’s first start last week against the Jets, and three of their last four games have totaled at least 45. We don’t expect the Giants to put up many points here, so we’re leaning Under, but not enough to go big on the total. 

Giants vs. Steelers Moneyline

The Steelers are at -278 on the moneyline, so a $278 wager would win $100 in profit on a straight-up win. The Giants are posted at +225 (wager $100 to win $225 of profit). We like Pittsburgh to cover the spread, but this price is higher than we’re willing to back in today’s NFL. The Browns just beat the Ravens, for cryin’ out loud. 

Giants vs. Steelers Top Player Props

Najee Harris, Over 62.5 Rushing Yards 

Harris had games of 19 and 42 yards before blowing up the last two weeks, going for 106 and 102, with a TD in each. Not coincidentally, the Steelers had their two best points totals in those Harris-led games. Wilson’s presence opens up the passing game, and the Giants allow more yards per run than any team in the league. Look for another big game from the Steelers lead RB.

Daniel Jones, Under 26.5 Rushing Yards

times. He’s not taking off like he used to, and the Steelers’ defense has been elite at ensuring QBs don’t beat them with their legs, giving up just 12 attempts for 55 yards – on the entire season. Go with the Jones rushing Under.
