The Washington Commanders and New York Giants both enter this Week 15 matchup on long losing streaks.

Jayden Daniels returned but was re-injured in Washington’s 31-0 loss in Minnesota to extend the Commanders’ losing streak to eight games. Meanwhile, the Giants had their bye week amid a seven-game losing streak in New York.

Who will come out on top in this NFC East showdown?

Commanders vs. Giants Key Player to Watch

Jaxson Dart, Quarterback, New York Giants

Much like defenses around the league, we’re keying in on Jaxson Dart here in New York. The Giants rookie quarterback has been the subject of some conversation in recent weeks due to his reckless playstyle, and we’ll see if that changes at all following the bye week.

Dart has still been impressive this season, though. He hasn’t thrown an interception in the league four games with four passing touchdowns in that span. He’s also ran for seven touchdowns this season, and was on a five-game touchdown streak prior to the 33-15 loss in New England.

This will be Dart’s first start against Washington after Russell Wilson went 17 of 37 for 168 yards in the Week 1 matchup.

Commanders vs. Giants Prediction and Pick

The Giants have been awful on the road this season, but they’re a respectable 2-3 at home with a few impressive wins. They beat the Chargers as +6 underdogs and took down the Eagles 34-17 as +7.5 dogs two weeks later.

On the other hand, the Commanders are just 1-6 on the road and are coming off a shutout loss in Minnesota. This has been a season to forget for both squads, but the Giants have the rest advantage and home field in this one, so I’m giving them the edge.

Pick: Giants -2.5 (-105)
