First look: New York Giants at Washington Football Team odds and lines, Heinicke takes over for injured Fitzpatrick

Looking at Thursday’s New York Giants at Washington Football Team Week 2 NFL odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

The Washington Football Team (0-1) host the NFC East rival New York Giants (0-1) on Thursday Night Football at FedExField with the kickoff scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Giants vs. Washington odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.

New York took a 27-13 loss in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos as 2.5-point home underdogs. Giants RB Saquon Barkley was bottled up—running for just 26 yards on 10 carries—in his first game back after suffering a season-ending injury last year.

Washington was also dropped at home, 20-16, as 2-point favorites and first-year QB Ryan Fitzpatrick exited the game in the first quarter with a hip injury. Fitzpatrick is expected to miss a few games, and his replacement, QB Taylor Heinicke, completed 11-of-15 passes for 122 yards with 1 TD, 0 INT and a 119.3 QB Rating in fill-in duty.

Giants at Washington head-to-head

Though New York hasn’t had a winning season since 2016, the Giants are 6-2 overall against Washington from 2017-2020 (5-3 against the spread) including five consecutive victories.

New York QB Daniel Jones is a perfect 4-0 vs. Washington with an 8 TD-to-3 INT ratio, a 68.3% completion rate, 225.3 yards per game and a 100.0 QB Rating. Washington backup QB Kyle Allen suffered a season-ending broken ankle last year in Week 9, and New York has yet to face Heinicke.

Washington is hoping to be the first NFC East team to win back-to-back divisional crowns since the Philadelphia Eagles did so from 2001-04. However, Philly is the only NFC East team that won its Week 1 game.

First look: Los Angeles Chargers at Washington Football Team odds and lines, Chargers favored in Week 1

Looking at Sunday’s Los Angeles Chargers at Washington Football Team Week 1 NFL odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

Week 1 of the 2021 NFL season is here and the Los Angeles Chargers begin on the road against the defending NFC East champion Washington Football Team. Their game kicks off Sunday at 1 p.m. ET at FedExField. Below, we look at the Chargers vs. Washington odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.

The Chargers were 7-9 last season with some tough losses but are hopeful about the present and future because of the play of QB Justin Herbert as a rookie. He passed for 4,336 yards and 31 touchdowns en route to winning the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award.

Washington won the NFC East despite a 7-9 regular-season record in Ron Rivera’s first season as head coach. It has a new starting quarterback in veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick and still has a physical defense.
