The Giants, en route to 1-6, have insisted all along that they’re thisclose to being a good team and that they’re better than what their record says they are.
On Sunday at MetLife Stadium, they get a chance to prove it and they get to do it against the perfect opponent.
Considering the way the Giants’ season of promise has devolved into its current state of chaos, they could not have dialed up a better opponent to play Sunday than the 4-2 Redskins, who not only are a division rival, but reside in first place in the NFC East.
