Commanders vs Giants Prediction
New York comes into this matchup after going 3-1-1 in their last five games and they are currently leading the NFC East standings. The Giants don’t have a great quarterback situation, but they are finding ways to win right now. Washington is 1-3-1 in their last five games, including a 27-27 tie with the Giants a few weeks ago. The Commanders have been super inconsistent on offense this year, but they do have the better quarterback in this matchup. Washington has gone over 40.5 in just two of their last five games and New York has gone over 40.5 in four of their last five, plus we saw 54 points in the first meeting between these teams, so I like the over here.

The Commanders are also one of the worst passing defenses, which means McCarthy should be able to move the ball. Take the over here.
