The New York Giants and Washington Commanders will battle in an NFC East tilt at Northwest Stadium on Sunday, September 7isn’t on the Week 1 injury report and is set to build on his sneaky good rookie season that ended prematurely with a Lisfranc injury in his foot in Week 13.
Johnson became a reliable option in the New York passing attack with 26 receptions — on 35 targets — for 294 yards and a touchdown across his final eight games before the injury. I also particularly value the game-to-game consistency. Johnson hauled in at least three receptions and 30 receiving yards in seven of those eight games. Additionally, the Giants don’t have a who’s who of pass catchers on the roster, and No. 1 wide receiver Malik Nabers has been nursing injuries throughout training camp and missed Friday’s practice with back tightness.were also soft against tight ends in 2024 while allowing an above-average 7.7 yards per target to the position, and for what it’s worth, Johnson caught three of six targets for 51 yards and a score in Week 9 against the Commanders. A lot went right for the Commanders last season, and I’m not expecting them to sneak up on anyone in 2025. New York improved on both sides of the ball this offseason, and I’m expecting the pass rush to keep the Washington offense just off balance enough to keep this Week 1 tilt within a one-possession finish. The best path to keeping this game close for the Giants is not letting it turn into a shootout, so I expect head coach Brian Daboll to try to shorten the game and use the entire 40-second play clock. Plus, I don’t think the Giants' offense is going to hit the ground running at full speed in a road divisional game Sunday.is positioned to complement veteran Austin Ekeler in the backfield, and I think Croskey-Merritt is the better red-zone option on the ground for Washington.With the Commanders carrying -225 moneyline chalk, I’m expecting Washington to be a popular pick in moneyline parlays, leg in teasers and Week 1 pick in theThere’s been a recent move to the favorite side of this spread after bettors backed the Giants down to a +5.5 road underdog. Washington is back at -6.5 chalk as of Friday, so I like taking the points in this NFC East tilt. New York improved on both sides of the ball during the offseason.As discussed, I like the Under in this Week 1 tilt. The Commanders aren’t going to sneak up on anyone after making the NFC Championship Game last year, and I think the New York defense makes life just difficult enough for the Washington offense and quarterback Jayden Daniels to send this total Under the number.ja The Giants have cashed the Under in five of their last nine away games .
