Odds to Win the NFC East Division 2016 – New York Giants
The New York Giants odds of winning the NFC East division in 2016 were +145 and the new favorite following the Cowboys Tony Romo’s preseason injury whereby New York had previously been longer than 2-1 odds.
The Giants went on a bit of a spending spree, reinforcing a defense that has been full of holes the last couple of years.
Athlon Sports writes of their chances:
If they just could’ve protected three of those leads, they would’ve been 9–7 instead of 6–10, maybe won the NFC East and Coughlin would still have a job.
With the ability to mount a fourth-quarter pass rush and cover, they should be able to protect those leads now. And the offense, which ranked eighth in the NFL last season, should be at least as good as long as Manning stays healthy. They were closer than you think last year in a terrible division. But even if the NFC East is better this season, the Giants should be good enough to contend. How good? Well, the Giants’ dirty little secret is that by almost any measure they’ve been the most injured team in the NFL over the last five years.
Indeed, New York is favored to win at least 9 regular season games.
