"The winless New York Giants used a first-round pick on Mississippi quarterback Jaxson Dart, and Sunday they'll get a first regular-season glimpse at that investment. It's a rough way to start for the rookie, who will face a swarming defense and an undefeated opponent. The 22-year-old Dart replaces the struggling Russell Wilson and takes over an offense that has scored fewer than 10 points in two of three games."
"The Chargers (3-0) are rolling, having won three consecutive AFC West games with outstanding play from Justin Herbert and six-time Pro Bowl receiver Keenan Allen, who has caught a touchdown pass in all three of those games. Receiver Quentin Johnston, once plagued by drops, has emerged as a sure-handed deep threat. Not since 2002 have the Chargers gotten off to a 4-0 start."
The winless New York Giants will start rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who replaces Russell Wilson after limited regular-season experience but a strong preseason showing. Dart played six snaps in real games and has yet to attempt a pass. The Chargers are 3-0 with Justin Herbert and Keenan Allen performing at a high level, and Quentin Johnston emerging as a reliable deep threat. Chargers have not started 4-0 since 2002. The Chargers can pressure Dart, force third-and-long, and exploit New York’s weak run defense. The Giants must generate a pass rush, contain Herbert’s mobility, and keep Dart in manageable third downs.
