Neither team rushes for 100 yards

The last time these two teams met, Jones produced for 74 of the Giants’ 132 rushing yards and Washington only managed 86 yards on the ground, I think the running game could be even less productive on Sunday.

Granted, Washington rookie Antonio Gibson rushed for a career-high 128 yards against the Cowboys his last time out, but the Giants are holding opponents to just 102 yards rushing per game.

Between the Giants’ rather dominant rushing defense and Devonta Freeman being out, this feels like the type of game where neither team will be able to get much going on the ground. I don’t think either team eclipses 100 rushing yards.
