Giants Vs Washington: Picks
Prior to Fitzpatrick’s injury, I had projected the Football Team as 6.5-point favourites. However, because I’m only docking them two points for the quarterback change, I’m projecting them as 4.5-point favourites in this game.
I believe the market is overreacting to the quarterback change — the Football Team won’t need Heinicke to do much to win this game, whereas against the Bills next week, this QB change could be worth closer to 3-3.5 points because Washington would want Fitzpatrick’s upside against a high-scoring team like Buffalo.
