The New York Giants (2-5) will be once again playing in front of the entire nation this Monday night when they travel to Pennsylvania to play the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2).
The over/under for the game, per BetMGM, is 36.5 total points, so a low-scoring game is expected. That shouldn’t be a problem on the Giants’ end as they are 30th in points per game (14.1) and have averaged just 13.0 over their last three.
There’s always a few bucks to be made in any game, however, and this game is no different. Here are three prop bets for your perusal in this game.

Steelers RB Najee Harris OVER 63.5 rushing yards (-120)
Najee Harris has rushed for over 100 yards in consecutive weeks and is heating up. He is the only player in the NFL with 70+ scrimmage yards in all seven games this season. The Giants are coming off a week in which they allowed Saquon Barkley 186 yards from scrimmage, so this number would actually be a win for them.

Giants QB Daniel Jones OVER 19.5 completions (-120)
The Steelers have allowed 26.7 completions per game over their last three and with the Giants being held in check on the ground, will have to take to the air. Daniel Jones has completed over 20 passes in five of the Giants’ seven games this season.

Giants QB Daniel Jones OVER 50 rushing yards (+300)
Jones has rushed for over 65 yards in each of his last two Monday night games. In this game, with the Steelers concentrating on stopping the running backs with their third-ranked defense, Jones could possibly pile up some yardage of his own between called rushes and scrambles.
