Washington Commanders Chances to Win vs. New York Giants

The Commanders have a 53.25% chance to beat the Giants in Week 2. Their chances are calculated using implied probability based on odds from DraftKings. Here is how it is calculated for each team using -125 odds for the Commanders and +105 odds for the Giants:

Commanders chances: 125 รท (125 + 100) * 100 = 55.56%
Giants chances: 100 รท (105 + 100) * 100 = 48.78%

However, the above percentages add up to 104.34%. This is due to the vig, which is the house edge for the sportsbook which allows them to profit off the bet. To remove the vig, we simply divide each team's chance by 104.34.

Commanders chances (after vig): 55.56 รท 104.34 = 53.25%
Giants chances (after vig): 48.78 รท 104.34 = 46.75%

Note that both of the final team chances above finally equal 100%. Hence, the 53.25% chance to win for the Commanders.

How Washington Wins vs. New York

Washington's success will largely be determined by the performance of quarterback Jayden Daniels in his rookie season in 2024. He has just one regular season game under his belt entering this matchup, so he'll need to build chemistry with his offense quickly to get past a more seasoned Giants squad.

How New York Wins vs. Washington

The Giants have had shaky QB play with Daniel Jones over the last few years, and they no longer have running back Saquon Barkley to rely on. The saving grace could be Jones' rapport with rookie receiver Malik Nabers who is projected to make an impact right away in 2024.
