New York are tipped to cover as a betting underdog on Monday Night Football.
The Rams are clearly better than they showed in Week 1, but the defense had issues with Brock Purdy’s mobility and could experience similar problems against Jaxson Dart, resulting in this game being much closer than the bookies expect.

New York Giants Caused Upset With Week 1 Win
New York make the long trip to California looking to build on last week’s surprise home win over Dallas.
The Giants were underdogs for the clash with the Cowboys, despite having home advantage, but defied those odds as they fended off the visitors in a 28-20 win.
Jaxson Dart produced a clean and efficient performance that saw him go 23/29 for 230 yards and three touchdowns, while he also showcased his dual threat with 54 yards rushing.
Dart was aided on the ground by Cam Skattebo, who rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown off 18 carries.
Isaiah Likely led the team in receiving as he made eight catches for 78 yards and two touchdowns, while Malik Nabers put up 69 yards off six receptions.
Los Angeles Rams Suffered Blowout Defeat In Australia
Los Angeles go into their first true home game of the season seeking an immediate response to the Week 1 win.
The Rams failed to live up the preseason hype as they suffered a 27-7 defeat at the hands of San Francisco in Melbourne, Australia.
In what was billed as a home game for the Rams, quarterback Matthew Stafford completed just 15 passes for 155 yards and an interception.
Star receiver Pula Nacua put up 74 yards off five receptions, while Davante Adams failed to make any impact as he caught three balls for 26 yards.
Blake Corum and Kyren Williams shared the load on the ground, combining for 95 yards, with the latter getting the Rams’ only touchdown of the game.
Verdict
Los Angeles underwhelmed massively in Week 1, and we do expect to see improvement here.
However, this is a lot of points and Dart has the ability to cause plenty of problems for this Garrett-less defense, so we are leaning towards the Giants and the free points.
