Remember: the game is in Indy, so the crowd will be virulently anti-Pats. Almost a home game for the G-men.

It's usually single-digit percentage of locals. The crowd may be slightly pro-Giants, but hardly a home game.

against the Dolts there so the surroundings will not be unfamiliar.

I'm not sure who thought the Pats giving 7 was a good line, but that was a layup. If I was the sort of person to "bet the house" on something, it would have been Ravens +7 today.

No way are the Giants favorites. That's not to say they wouldn't be the team to bet on.
