NFL?Odds
Washington -7
Total: 44.5 points
Washington needs a win here over the Giants to be able to qualify for the post season. If they win and the Lions lose against Green?Bay in the Sunday night game, the Redskins will be marching on to the Wild Card spot in the post season. The Redskins have a very potent passing attack with Kirk Cousins, he’s very good when tight end Jordan?Reed is healthy, but his availability in this one should be checked before game time. Cousins has thrown for a franchise-record 4,630 yards to date and the Redskins have everything in the world to play for in this one.
Cousins will be looking to find Desean?Jackson in the open field for big plays. Jackson is an excellent catch and run threat that can be dangerous in the open field. Cousins needs 370 yards to reach 5,000 for the season, which would be a nice achievement. The only problem is the Redskins have gone 1-5-1 this season when he eclipses that mark.
The Giants will look to Odell Beckham and Eli Manning for big plays. They basically have no run game and will rely heavily on the ball in the air, looking for big chunks of yards that lead to points. New York could play spoiler here and knock the Redskins out of the playoffs.
While they want to rest their guys, they’re locked into a Wild Card game and will be playing next week anyway, so they may want to keep the rhythm going.
