7. Washington Football Team

The Washington Football Team finished 7-9, winning the NFC East last year.

The NY Giants play them September 16 and January 9.

New York is 4-0 against Washington during the past two seasons, but will that change this year?

Washington added Curtis Samuel to their wide receiver core and signed quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. The Football Team  has one of the best defensive lines in the league with Chase Young and Montez Sweat and have a nice secondary group. Washington could potentially win the division again if they play a little better than last year.

Washington’s biggest question mark is at the quarterback position since Fitzpatrick is not young and will not play football forever. For the NY Giants, I don’t see this being an “easy” matchup anymore and will be a fight to win the two games.
