Graham Gano
Under 1.5 Extra Points Made (+100, BetMGM)
The Giants attempt 2-point conversions at the 11th-highest rate in the NFL. As an underdog against the Eagles, that rate should be even higher if they’re trailing.
The Eagles have allowed two or fewer extra-point attempts in nine of their 12 games this season.
There are some weather concerns, as well, with rain in the forecast in New Jersey on Sunday.
I’m projecting Gano to go under 1.5 extra points made 53.1% of the time, so I’d only bet this at even or plus money, which you can get at BetMGM and DraftKings as of Saturday night.
Brett Maher
Under 2.5 Extra Points Made (+145, DraftKings)
The Texans have allowed less than 2.5 extra points made in half of their games this season. The key to this happening is protecting the ball. In four of Houston’s five games with fewer than two turnovers, it has gone under this total.
Dallas has the second-highest fumble luck in the NFL. If that regresses, the Texans should be favored to have fewer than two turnovers. That’s especially the case with Davis Mills under center. Mills has only four fumbles in 10 games this season compared to Kyle Allen’s four in just two starts.
I have Maher staying under 2.5 extra points made 44.4% of the time, or +125 fair odds. I’d bet this to +130.
