The Giants head to Houston for a rare interconference matchup with a one-sided history. Check out our NFL odds as you follow along.
New York leads the all-time series 5-1 and has won five straight, most recently 24-16 at MetLife Stadium on November 13, 2022. Before that, the Giants won 27-22 in 2018, 30-17 in 2014, 34-10 in 2010 and 14-10 in 2006.
Two numbers from last season frame the matchup. Houston allowed 17.4 points per game, while the Giants gave up 25.8. The Texans went 12-5 and the Giants 4-13, and the teams have no other meeting on the 2026 schedule.
Storyline: Houston’s only win in the series came in its inaugural 2002 season, a 16-14 home victory. The Texans return home after their London game against Jacksonville, with their bye coming the following week.

Spread Analysis
The Giants have won the last five meetings by an average of nearly 11 points, though the 2006 and 2018 games were decided by four and five. As you check the NFL Week 7 odds, the early-season form runs against last year’s records: the Giants were 3-1-1 and the Texans 1-4 through Week 5.
New York is in its first season under John Harbaugh, and Houston will be playing its first home game since a trip overseas.
Total Betting Trends
Combined scoring in the last five meetings ranged from 24 points in 2006 to 49 points in 2018, with none of those games reaching 50. Recent meetings have stayed in the 40s, though current offensive form matters more than any single pattern in a series played only every four years.
