NFL experts make Week 12 picks
The New York Giants (3-8) will host the New England Patriots (2-8) at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Sunday afternoon.
Opening the week, the Giants were listed as 3.5-point home underdogs and that’s exactly where the spread remains as of this writing after briefly dipping to +3.
Let’s take a look at who some of the experts and insiders around the league are taking in the Week 12 matchup.

There is an overwhelming confidence in the Patriots this Sunday and that comes as somewhat of a surprise. We expected the above panel to be more mixed this week but the vast majority have New England coming away victorious.
While that’s a bit of a shock, the low-score predictions are not. The Giants and Patriots are the two lowest-scoring teams in the league and most anticipate that trend will continue.
Outside of this 10-person panel, the game predictions are slightly more varied. Other NFL experts and analysts predict New England to win at a 63 percent clip, according to NFL Pickwatch.
Fans share similar sentiments and have the Patriots winning with 59 percent of the picks.
