Giants vs. Commanders: Top Bets, Expert Picks & Player Updates for Sep 15

Get the latest on Giants vs. Commanders with expert betting advice, up-to-date odds, player news, and injury reports for September 15. Dive into stats and make informed picks for the game.

It’s an NFC East showdown that promises fireworks, as old rivals Washington Commanders (0-1) and New York Giants (1-0) clash this Sunday in Landover, MD.

Both teams are itching for their first win of the season after stumbling out of the gates last weekend. In an electrifying debut as Commanders’ Head Coach, Baker Mayfield dazzled while leading his squad to a 37-20 triumph over Dan Quinn’s Tampa Bay team. Rookie sensation Jayden Daniels struggled to find receivers but made up for it with his legs, rushing for an impressive 88 yards and scoring two touchdowns. On the flip side, the Giants found themselves outmatched by Sam Darnold and the Vikings in a one-sided 28-6 defeat at MetLife Stadium.

As both squads seek their first notch in the win column and a crucial divisional victory, multiple storylines will make this game a must-watch:

Burning Questions for the Big Blue:

  • How long will the Giants stick with Daniel Jones after a shaky start to the season?
  • Can Jayden Daniels improve on his debut and connect with his receivers?
  • Will the Giants’ defense keep pace with the swift-footed Jayden Daniels?

Latest Game Odds for Giants vs. Commanders – Week 2

DraftKings odds as of Thursday afternoon:

  • Moneyline: New York Giants (+105), Washington Commanders (-125)
  • Spread: Commanders -2
  • Total: 43 points

The line has shifted half a point towards Seattle, and the total has dropped from an opening of 39.5. Seattle is still grappling with Ryan Grubbs’ offense, and New England is short on offensive weapons.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bets:

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is bullish on the rookie QB in Washington against the Giants:

“I’m steering clear of the sides or totals and focusing on Jayden Daniels’ rushing yards. Set at 52.5, it’s up 12 yards from last game, but it’s still too low. Daniels amassed 88+ rushing yards in his debut and actively looks to run. The Giants’ defense lacks athleticism, making longer runs highly likely. I’m all in on Daniels’ rushing yards.”
