The Commanders are 7-5 on the season and have delivered performances that will please their long-suffering fans.
Quarterback Taylor Heinicke has been impressive since taking the starting spot on the roster, but he still feels like a stopgap until the team finally gets its superstar under center.
Bet the NFL at FanDuel
The running back tandem of Brian Robinson Jr and Antonio Gibson have promise. Gibson is the big-play threat, capable of incredible moments but Robinson has hugely improved since his first few games, where he looked very poor.
As always the star of the show for the Commanders is Terry McLaurin, one of the league's best wideouts, especially given the quarterback play that he's had to endure since entering the league.
The hosts came into this year needing Daniel Jones to show whether he is the team's franchise quarterback; he's answered a lot of those questions and has taken a notable leap in 2022.
There's only one star on the Giants roster — unless Odell Beckham Jr decides if he will be returning to play in New York — and that's Saquon Barkley. He's the finest athlete in the NFL and he's currently fourth in the race to be the NFL's rushing leader.
Betting Picks
I think the most valuable bet for this game features the dual-threat Penn State alum, Barkley. Over the past four weeks, he's been less of a threat in the passing game with a total of 43 receiving yards over that stretch.
We're backing Saquon to hit the under on his receiving yards here as well, with the line currently standing at 20.5 yards. He's gone under that total for four weeks in a row and seven times in 11 games so far this season; it's notable how ineffective he's in the Giants' passing game.
The Commanders have also been very effective at stopping running backs in the passing game, with only three teams allowing fewer receiving yards to running backs than the Commanders.
Recent trends tell us that Barkley has struggled in the passing game and with the Commanders being amongst the best in the league and locking down running backs then it's wise to bet against him.
