1. The Giants stun the NFL and shock the Packers

If this game was at Lambeau Field, the stadium that provides the greatest home field advantage in the National Football League, I would not like this Giants odds this weekend. But, this game is not at Lambeau, it is in London, where the Packers have never played before. Rodgers would have every mental and physical advantage in Green Bay, but London neutralizes some of those advantages.

It will be a sluggish and low-scoring game early, which will give the young Giants hope. The Giants have been outscored 34-23 in the first half, but have outscored opponents 53-37 in the second half. The young Giants have figured out how to win games late, and they will keep this game close, putting them in a familiar position.

Hot. NY Giants sign Landon Collins in perfect move for both sides. light

The Giants will steal this game 19-17 thanks to four Graham Gano field goals, including a late one that proves to be the difference. The Giants pull off a big upset every season, and with all the advantages they have this weekend, NY has the perfect recipe to pull this one off. The party will be electric in both New York and London come Sunday.
