The Giants are coming off a home win that featured improved discipline defensively. The win was against a Chiefs team that ripped apart the Redskins' defense in a Monday Night Football showcase spot. Furthermore, the Redskins have been abysmal ATS at home with a 1-5 record. Still, the Redskins are receiving better play from their depth that’s had to step up due to injuries at running back and wide receiver. That’ll be the difference in a quick turnaround game from Sunday. Grab Washington.
The Giants pulled a rabbit out of their defensive hat against the Chiefs. They did it without Eli Apple at CB. They get him back this week against the Skins, who are coming off a colossal collapse in the Superdome. This is a situation where a team allows one loss to become two. Take the points.
The original total of 41.5 makes more sense than this oddly inflated one. New York squeezed out one touchdown against Kansas City while playing nearly five quarters. The Giants’ aversion to scoring before last Sunday had not been quite that awful, but QB Eli Manning has so little to work with. The Redskins, to their credit, have outpunched their weight offensively. At some point, though, the OL injuries will catch up to the Skins. In this short week to prepare, that time could be now, especially in light of the thinned-out RB position. Chris Thompson broke his leg last Sunday, one week after Rob Kelley (ankle) went down long-term. The public tends to overestimate the potency of offenses in this series. The Under has clicked in 14 of the past 20 matchups. And while the weather forecast calls for clear skies, temperatures are expected to dip into the 30s. Go Under.
