After a shootout with the Philadelphia Eagles two weeks ago, the New York Giants fell back to earth in Week 16 against the Arizona Cardinals. In a 23-0 win, the Cardinals registered two sacks, three turnovers, and one defensive score en route to being the highest-scoring defense of the week.

Since returning from his Week 13 benching, Eli Manning has not sparked the Giants' offense, committing multiple turnovers in two out of three starts. Now, the Giants return home to face a Washington defense that has been a top-8 unit in four out of their past five games. Over that span, Washington has notched multiple sacks in every game, and on the season, they rank seventh in sacks (40) and third in quarterback hits (105).

Vegas has made Washington a 3.5-point favorite, and although they are on the road, a matchup with Manning and the dismal Giants' offense makes them an attractive Week 17 streaming option.
