Both teams entered the game with 0-1 records and needing a win to avoid a brutal winless start through two weeks. Jayden Daniels provided most of the offensive production for the Commanders in Week 1, while Daniel Jones struggled mightily against the Vikings.
Jones’ history against Washington has seen him enjoy a ton of success, but the Commanders showed up this week with a new coaching staff and a rebuilt roster that weren’t here for those games. Washington fans were hoping for a new beginning in the series while Giants fans were hoping to see their team save what feels like a critical season in the 3rd year of a rebuild.
