Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 21-6 loss to the Commanders on Sunday:
Hero
Jayden Daniels wasn’t even on his A game and still threw for 233 yards and a touchdown while running for another 68 yards.
He improved to 3-0 against the Giants.
Zero
Russell Wilson looked every bit like a 36-year-old quarterback who didn’t have much of a free agent market as he went 17-for-37 for 168 yards and threw an interception that was nullified by a penalty.
Unsung hero
Deebo Samuel added a missing element in his Commanders debut.
After being traded from the 49ers, he had seven catches for a team-high 77 yards and a 19-yard touchdown run.
Key stat
13: Plays inside the red zone for the Giants, which resulted in just three points.
Quote of the day
“We have to be urgent, because if we let this linger like we did last year, we’ll be 3-14 again, and I’m damn sure not going to accept that.”
— Right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor
