The Washington Football Team should be favored because they’re the better team and their defense is easily the best unit in this game. With that said, neither of these teams have anything to play for, and a win actually does nothing but hurt their draft position. It wouldn’t be shocking at all to see these clubs chill with the aggressiveness and try to end up on the losing side without being so obvious. Also, five of Washington’s six wins this season have been decided by six or fewer points. Give me the Giants and the points.
