The New York Giants (0-1) will go to the Washington Commanders (0-1) at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland on Sunday afternoon.
Opening the week, the Giants had been listed as 2.5-point highway underdogs however that unfold has softened a bit with Washington -1.5 as of this writing.
Let’s check out who a number of the consultants and insiders across the league are taking within the Week 2 matchup:
Skilled | Choose | Rating (if relevant) |
Dan Graziano (ESPN) | Giants | N/A |
Matt Bowen (ESPN) | Commanders | N/A |
Seth Wickersham (ESPN) | Commanders | N/A |
Pete Prisco (CBS) | Giants | 21-19 |
John Breech (CBS) | Giants | 20-17 |
Jordan Dajani (CBS) | Commanders | 21-16 |
Nate Davis (USA TODAY) | Commanders | 25-17 |
Lorenzo Reyes (USA TODAY) | Commanders | 17-14 |
Invoice Bender (Sporting Information) | Commanders | 22-21 |
Vinnie Iyer (Sporting Information) | Commanders | 27-20 |
There’s little love being proven to the Giants after their ugly Week 1 efficiency, however the Commanders appear to be getting a go on theirs. One may argue that’s attributable to current traits however no development is extra entrenched than the Giants proudly owning Washington in recent times.
Regardless of the Washington-heavy break up, all the skilled panel sees this as a low-scoring contest that’s settled by a single landing or much less (save for Nate Davis, who sees the Commanders profitable by eight — a landing and two-point conversion).
Different consultants and NFL insiders really feel equally assured in Washington with 81 p.c selecting the Commanders to win on Sunday, per NFL Pickwatch.
Followers are much more harsh with simply 10 p.c predicting a Giants upset victory.
