After all the talk about whether the Giants would rest their star players in a “meaningless” game, the answer looks like a definite “No”. Like they have all season long, it was the defense that came out and set the tone for the New York Giants.
The Washington Redskins got the ball to start the game, and the Giants got a quick three and out to get the ball to their offense. The Giants’ offense was off the field quickly as well, but got the ball right back off a second great defensive stand.
