The line is up from 3.5 points earlier in the week.

Since Brian Daboll took over as head coach, the Giants are 3-1-1 straight up versus the Commanders.

The Giants are 3-5 against the spread this season. Washington is 6-1-1 against the spread.

Six of the Giants’ eight games have gone under while five of the Commanders’ eight games have gone over this season.
