The Giants and Commanders faced each other at MetLife Stadium two weeks ago. The teams tied, 20-20. The Giants played the Philadelphia Eagles last week, losing 48-22, but the Commanders had a bye, manning they’ll be facing the Giants in consecutive games.
According to the Elias Sports Bureau, it is the third time since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger that a team will play the same opponent in consecutive games. The other instances happened in 1991 (Seattle-San Diego) and last year (Cleveland-Baltimore).
This will be the first time the Giants have been an opponent in consecutive games since November 20 and 27, 1960 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
