Lorenzo Reyes: Commanders 20, Giants 14

Washington is a completely different team with Heinicke under center, and the Giants have come back down to earth. If this is the week when Chase Young returns, New York’s chances become even more tenuous.

Safid Deen: Giants 24, Commanders 20

The Commanders are on a roll, winning three in a row after handing the Eagles their first loss of the season. But there’s nothing like a division opponent to ruin a good time. The Giants do just that to the Commanders, getting a win at home after losing two straight.

Lance Pugmire: Giants 20, Commanders 17

For all the talk about Washington’s defense, New York has allowed fewer points this season. Daniel Jones should be able to execute more effectively than Atlanta did, thus ending the Commanders’ three-game winning streak.

Jarrett Bell: Giants 25, Commanders 20

Nate Davis: Commanders 23, Giants 17

Tyler Dragon: Giants 21, Commanders 17
