New York Giants vs. Las Vegas Raiders Prediction

I’m on the under here. These are two teams I simply don’t trust offensively right now and I don’t expect that to change any time soon, especially with a win doing more harm than good in this spot on both sides in terms of their draft position. I think this is going to be a game with a lot of mucking around between the 20s and in the end, the under comes in. Give me the under.
