Commanders stun the Giants 24-21 on a late Stefon Diggs TD — are Washington real NFC East contenders now?
marcusbuilds asked
Jayden Daniels hit Stefon Diggs for a 32-yard touchdown with under a minute left and Washington beat the Giants 24-21 on Thursday night. That is a wild finish, but the Giants are not exactly a measuring stick this year. I keep going back and forth: is this the win that says the Commanders can actually hang in the NFC East, or is it just a fun Thursday night escape that says nothing about January? For anyone who watched the whole game: what did you actually learn about Washington?

- Real, but only if the defense holds up
The offense can score with anyone when Daniels has time, and Diggs gives him a target who wins late. The problem is the defense gave up 21 to a bad Giants team. Contenders do not need a miracle finish against the Giants. Watch the next two games before buying in.
