The New York Giants head to Solider Field to take on the Chicago Bears this Sunday afternoon. It may not be the most glamorous matchup on this week’s slate, but that doesn’t mean we can’t try for a large pay day with a same game parlay. You can check out our full preview for New York Giants vs Chicago Bears, but first we have laid out our favorite same game parlay for this intriguing Week 17 showdown.
Giants ML (+220)
Saquon Barkley anytime TD scorer (+160)
Parlay odds: +424
Giants ML (+220)
The Giants are by no means a good team, but the Bears have struggled at home. Chicago is 2-5 SU at Soldier Field, and their offense has been anemic for most of the season. The Bears picked up a road win last week against the Seahawks thanks to a solid effort from 3rd-string QB Nick Foles. Justin Fields and Andy Dalton both returned to practice this week, so head coach Matt Nagy has a decision to make.
No matter who is under center, it’s difficult to lay this many points with the Bears against just about anyone. Chicago owns a pitiful minus-13 turnover differential, which is the second-worst mark in the league. New York has not been much better in that department (minus-3), but that is still a sizable gap that could impact this contest. The last 5 meetings between these teams have all resulted in one-score games, and this could be an ugly, low-scoring game. In that scenario, the Giants ML presents some solid value.
Saquon Barkley anytime TD scorer (+160)
The Giants have some QB issues, as Daniel Jones is out for the season and it seems likely that Mike Glennon and Jake Fromm will split time in this one. That means that RB Saquon Barkley could see plenty of touches. Barkley has seen at least 11 touches in each of his last 5 games, and he figures to be utilized in the red zone given New York’s questions at quarterback.
The Chicago defense has not excelled at stopping the run, as they allow 124.1 yards per game on the ground. The Giants are also dealing with some injuries in their receiving core, so that could lead to even more opportunities for Barkley. Overall, Barkley should get plenty of opportunities, and the value at +160 is tough to pass up.
