Washington Football Team vs New York Giants: Storylines

Once again, the Washington Football Team's biggest issue will come at the quarterback position. Ryan Fitzpatrick barely played in Week 1 and will be sidelined for 6-8 weeks, so it'll be up to Taylor Heinicke to run the show.

Ron Rivera's team boasts one of the best defensive units in the league and they sure know how to put pressure on Daniel Jones. Then again, the New York Giants' quarterback always takes his game up a notch against this divisional rival.

In reality, the Giants look far from a playoff team, even if their defense has improved a lot from season to season. But, with Fitzpatrick out of the question, this game might as well be a bit of a toss-up.
