The New York Giants visit FedEx Field in Landover, Maryland on Sunday to play the Washington Redskins in an NFC East showdown. New York improved to 4-8 on the season with a 30-27 win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Aldrick Rosas kicked an overtime field goal of 44 yards to give the Giants the win.

Washington fell to 6-6 on the season and into a tie for second with the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC East after losing to the Eagles on Monday Night Football 28-13. The Redskins scored all their 13 points in the first half. Redskins’ backup quarterback Colt McCoy fractured his fibula in the game and third string quarterback Mark Sanchez took over in the loss.
Giants quarterback Eli Manning has 3,263 yards passing, 15 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Saquon Barkley leads the Giants in rushing with 954 yards and eight touchdowns, while the leading receiver is Odell Beckham Jr. with 77 receptions for 1,052 yards and six touchdowns. On defense, Landon Collins leads the Giants in tackles with 96, while B.J. Hill is the sacks leaders with 5.0.

Redskins quarterback Mark Sanchez has 100 yards passing. The leading rusher is Adrian Peterson with 856 yards and seven touchdowns. Jordan Reed leads the Redskins in receiving with 558 yards and two touchdowns. Mason Foster leads the Redskins in tackles with 102, while Ryan Kerrigan is the sacks leader with 8.0.

Washington has lost its starting and backup quarterbacks. Mark Sanchez is not the No. 1 signal caller for the Redskins. The Giants looked much better offensively in the win over the Bears and even used trickery at the goal line to score a late touchdown. Without any offensive leader on the Redskins, look for the Giants to win on the road. Final Score Prediction, New York Giants win and cover ATS 27-10.
