"After finishing 3-0 in the preseason and signing veteran quarterback Russell Wilson, the New York Giants are hoping to make some noise in the NFC East this year. The Washington Commanders won't want to become their first scalp to begin the campaign. Despite finishing 3-14 last season, the Giants did pose a challenge in their two games against the Commanders. Washington needed a game-ending field goal to win in Week 2, before a five-point margin of victory in Week 9."
"In Week 2 last year, the Commanders allowed Devin Singletary to average 5.9 yards per carry before allowing Tyrone Tracy Jr. to average 4.1 yards per carry in Week 9. Tracy, a converted wide receiver, took over the Giants' backfield last season, finishing with 1,123 yards from scrimmage and six touchdowns. His dual-threat abilities could pose a challenge for the Commanders' defense. Last season, the Commanders finished with the second-worst rush defense, allowing 143.4 yards per game."
The New York Giants finished 3-0 in the preseason and signed veteran quarterback Russell Wilson. The Giants challenged the Washington Commanders in two games last season, with Washington needing a game-ending field goal in Week 2 and winning by five points in Week 9. The Giants added defensive lineman Abdul Carter to bolster an already strong defense. Tyrone Tracy Jr. emerged as a dual-threat running back with 1,123 yards from scrimmage and six touchdowns. The Commanders struggled against the run, finishing with the second-worst rush defense while allowing 6.32 yards per carry during their playoff run. Washington needs a plan to limit Tracy's production.
