Momentum in the NFC East is on the line on “Thursday Night Football.” The Washington Commanders took a 10-7 lead in the first half of the NFL’s Week 10 opener, giving the New York Giants some work to do over the next 30 minutes as they aim to extend their lead in the division.
The weather was a factor pregame and even forced fans to empty the bowl, but the game started as scheduled and saw no disruptions during a low-scoring first half in a cold MetLife Stadium.
Cam Skattebo provided bookends in the first half for the New York offense. The ram of a running back totaled 26 yards from scrimmage with two successful runs and a 3-yard reception on the game’s opening possession and notched the first touchdown of the night with 2:35 left in the second quarter. The Giants’ 16-play, 72-yard march to the end zone took up 7:48 of game time and was the best offensive display of the first two quarters.
Washington responded with its longest drive and a touchdown of its own when Jayden Daniels completed a scoring pass to tight end Ben Sinnott with five seconds left. Aside from those two goals late in the half, offense was hard to come by.
