Saving your stuffing for tonight’s game? You’ll be thankful to see a competitive NFC East matchup under the lights!

After a tough 34-31 loss to the New Orleans Saints last week, the Redskins need to start stringing together wins, in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. With a loss by the Lions, a contender for an NFC East wild card spot, Washington’s path to the big dance gets a little bit clearer. But nonetheless, they need to win out. It’s possible. And the quest starts tonight.

The Giants, sitting at 2-8, might seem like a pushover. But they are far from it. Fresh off an impressive 12-9 overtime win against the Kansas City Chiefs, Ben McAdoo’s squad is flying as high as they have this season. That’s not too high, considering that they’ve been bottom feeders for much of the 2017 campaign, leveling out after a loss to the previously winless 49ers. But nevertheless, the Giants are on the uptrend. And much like last year, they’ll be motivated to crush the Redskins’ playoff hopes for a second straight year.

The game will be broadcast nationally on NBC, tonight at 8:30 PM EST. No television set at the dinner table? Don’t worry! You can stream live on your laptop or mobile device with NFL Game Pass and FuboTV!
