Last season, the New York Giants resembled a stock that had risen too far and fast on the market. Thus, many NFL odds sharps believed the Giants were due for a market correction in 2023. In the 2023 Sunday night football opener, the Giants were humiliated at home by the Dallas Cowboys. Last week at Arizona, the Giants escaped a disaster in the Desert with a comeback win. The 49ers are playing their home opener this week after road games at the Steelers and Rams. So far, San Francisco is looking Super with two wins.
