Jets vs. Giants prediction: NFL preseason Week 2 picks, best bets for the Snoopy Bowl
Why not bet on the Snoopy Bowl?
It's the 2025 NFL preseason, and this is perhaps the biggest one we'll have on the calendar.
The Giants are strong favorites to win for a preseason game, coming in at -195 odds on BetMGM with the spread sitting at 3.5 points.
The Jets initially opened as -1.5 point favorites, but the line moved four points in the Giants' direction.
There aren't too many options in the prop markets, though Justin Fields could get some reps, and there are some markets related to the quarterback on FanDuel.
Fields is +500 on FanDuel to throw a touchdown pass, while Garrett Wilson is 14/1 to score his team's first touchdown.
Wilson is highly unlikely to play more than one drive in this game.
The same goes for Breece Hall, who is +850 to score the game's first touchdown.
We could see plenty of the Jets starters in the Snoopy Bowl.

Jets vs. Giants prediction
The Giants have lost this matchup four straight times, losing 13-10 last season.
In their first preseason game, Jaxson Dart put on a show as the Giants scored 34 points in a win over the Bills.
It certainly seems like the Giants have had a strong preseason and have far superior quarterback depth, with Dart expected to play plenty, along with Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito.
If you're looking for action, the Giants are the play.
Betting on the NFL?
By most accounts, the Giants' defensive front ate the Jets up in joint practices earlier this month.
If the Giants' defensive line is that dominant, the Jets are sure to be in trouble.
PICK: Giants -3.5 (-110, BetMGM)

Jaxson Dart impressing in the preseason has not changed the Giants' plan at quarterback
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — One play into the New York Giants' fourth possession of their second preseason game, Brian Daboll called in Jaxson Dart without warning. 'Serious?' Dart asked, before making a throw that turned into a 30-yard gain and jogging back to the sideline, with Russell Wilson returning. It was all about putting the rookie quarterback in a situation he could face sooner or later in the NFL. 'You don't know what's going to happen,' Daboll said. 'Just be ready to go when your number's called.' Dart passed that test and has made a strong first impression as a pro since the Giants traded back into the first round to draft him as their potential QB of the future. Completing 13 consecutive passes and 14 of 16 total on Saturday night against the Jets should give the organization and its fans plenty of optimism about what is to come, but it has not changed the plan for Wilson to start and Dart to wait in the wings. 'Russ is our starter, and we're going to keep developing Jaxson,' Daboll said. 'We have a plan. ... We just have to keep working with him and understand there's going to be a lot of downs. I know there's some ups right now, but there's going to be a lot of downs and we just got to keep growing and communicating, just keep getting better.' Daboll, who is going into his fourth season coaching the Giants after getting the gig in part because of his work in Buffalo to develop Josh Allen on the path to becoming league MVP, insists there's a roadmap being followed. He is not exactly forthright about what it looks like. In exhibition game No. 2, it included not just one snap but an entire drive for Dart with the first-team offense. Why? 'Because that was part of the plan,' Daboll deadpanned. Whatever the plan is, and whenever Dart gets his first NFL start, the 22-year-old Mississippi product seems to be on board. 'They've done it with so many other quarterbacks. I trust them in the process,' Dart said. 'I have great guys around me, great coaches who have won and done it at the highest level, so I just look forward to learning each and every day.' Wilson echoed the other side, saying he's willing to keep teaching Dart what he has stockpiled from playing more than a decade in the league, including winning the Super Bowl at what is now their home stadium in the Meadowlands. 'I'm never shy about giving information and talking about it,' Wilson, now 36, said after his own impressive preseason game that included an 80-yard pass play to undrafted free agent Beaux Collins. 'I think (Dart has) done a tremendous job. He definitely has worked at it every day. He works at it every day, and he asks the right questions. That's what I enjoy about him.' Daboll appears to enjoy working with Dart, clearly along with general manager Joe Schoen and college scouts seeing enough that they liked to give up assets to use the 25th pick on the 6-foot-2 righty signal-caller. His stance continues to be that the Giants are trying to 'help Jaxson be the best quarterback he can be,' without many details on what that entails. Part of it is tempering expectations. Barring injury, Wilson will lead New York's offense onto the field for the season opener Sept. 7 at Washington and keep that role for some time. The Giants are trying to exercise patience with Dart and play the long game. 'We spent a lot of time with him, have a lot of confidence in the young man,' Daboll said. 'He's done a good job for us since he's been here in every area you could do — off the field, on the field, leadership, moxie, intelligence — but it's early. We've played a couple preseason games against probably some vanilla looks but he's making strides every day and that's all you can ask of any other young player.'

Zach Pascal was New York Giants' highest-graded player in win over Jets
The New York Giants defeated the New York Jets, 31-12, on Saturday night at MetLife Stadium in their second game of the preseason. The offense shone, gaining nearly 500 total yards with 398 of that coming through the air. Three of the four quarterbacks passed for over 100 yards, and seven completions went for 20 yards or more. The running game was functional, with Tyrone Tracy leading the charge with a 5.4 yards per carry average. On defense, struggles against the run persisted, and the pass rush was lacking in limited opportunities, but the unit never broke, limiting their cross-town rivals to just 12 points. Here's a look at the highest- and lowest-graded Giants player from their Week 2preseason victory, courtesy of Pro Football Focus. Note: There is no minimum snap count applied for preseason games.
