DESPERATE: Things are not well with the Giants, who host tonight's game (kickoff at 8:25 p.m. ET). You hate to say things are desperate after two weeks, but things are kind of desperate. Worth noting, the Giants started the 2007 season 0-2 and went on to win the Super Bowl. One difference, that 2007 team had a pass rush. This one doesn't.
The Giants are getting desperate
Tom Coughlin’s team has choked away two leads for two losses in two weeks. Can they turn it around on Thursday against Washington? Plus, all those QB injuries, fantasy advice and more!

CULTURE CHANGE: Washington is the toast of the NFC East this week, being the only team that hasn't lost everyone to injury or choked their first two games of the season. There's talk of a real culture change in the locker room there, but we've heard that before.
THURSDAY NIGHT FANTASY: Giants running back Rashad Jennings was supposed to have the No. 1 RB job locked up, but the results have been iffy so far. Should you start him tonight? What about Eli Manning? Most importantly, what about Alfred Morris and Matt Jones?
KAM RETURNS: Wednesday was the best day of the season so far for the 0-2 Seahawks. Safety Kam Chancellor ended his holdout and returned to the team. He’s happy to be back, but questions remain.
LOS ANGELES: The NFL is gearing up for its October owners meeting, and the move to L.A. will be a hot topic there. Reports now suggest that the league will only let one team go there to start with, giving the market a chance to embrace a team after 20 years without one. If that’s the case, it’s likely Rams owner Stan Kroenke could get his wish.
MEANINGLESS: Bruce Arians told his team exactly what their 2-0 start to the season was worth: nothing.
PICKS: Our panel picked the winners for each of this week’s games.
BREESUS: Reports on Drew Brees’ health have ranged from nothing to his whole season being over. Right now, he’s confident he’ll play this week, but we’ll see what happens.
HANG IT UP: Should Peyton Manning retire?
WON’T STOP: The Steelers are 3-for-3 on two-point conversion attempts, and they don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
GUTLESS: What happened to the tough Bills defense against the Patriots last week? Simple, they lost their nerve. Stephen White breaks it down.
UNDEFEATED: There are some surprises among the league’s 2-0 teams so far. Which ones are for real and which ones are due for a rude awakening soon?
STAFFORD: Lions QB Matthew Stafford was back at practice on Wednesday.
CULTURE CHANGE: You know who really needs a culture change? The Colts.
FAIL FOR CARDALE: Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones was assumed by many to be an easy first-round pick, but the way he’s playing this season is hurting his NFL future.
SAME OLD SAM: Eagles QB Sam Bradford looks exactly like St. Louis QB Sam Bradford.
