NFL Washington Redskins @ New York Giants Football Selection from Gamblers Television

From http://GamblersTelevision.com Pro Football Washington Redskins @ NY Giants (-4) (7PM ET) (NBC) The Giants offense has a solid run game with Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw and Derrick Ward. This offense returns all 11 starters from a year ago. The Giants will use their bruising backs to set up big plays in play action in the passing game and they have the running backs to wear the Redskins in the 4th quarter. Wide receiver Steve Smith played well late and came up with key 3rd down receptions for the Giants to keep the chains moving. Justin Tuck and Mathias Kiwanuka are now the starting defensive ends after Michael Strahan's retirement and Osi Umenyioura. Tuck was second on the team in sacks last season. The Giants will have less depth on defense and it may be something that haunts them later in the season. Jason Campbell was only a 5-7 quarterback last season and rookie coach Jim Zorn coaches his first game and it's against a division rival on the road. Zorn has to adjust to game management and the Redskins break in a new offensive and defensive coordinator. Jason Taylor sprained his knee on August 23rd and may not be available for Washington. The third preseason game is your dress rehearsal for the regular season, it's the only preseason game that matters and the Redskins were pounded 47-3 at Carolina. The first string offense had 5 three and outs in 8 series in this game and Campbell was sacked 4 times. Both running backs ran for 100 yards against the Redskins defense. With starters playing for the first half Washington was behind 34-0. Not a good sign here for the rookie coach. Take the NY Giants --4. Selection: NY Giants --4
