Commanders pressure Giants QB J.J. McCarthy, with an interception ruining a strong start

J.J. McCarthy had more passing yards than any other game in his NFL career. It turned out to be three of his tries that didn't work at the end that kept him from sending fans to the exits happy in his first home start with the New York Giants.McCarthy's pass was picked off with 34 seconds left by Washington's Rasul Douglas on a jump ball intended for Malik Nabers. He also was incomplete on his previous two throws when the Commanders blitzed and brought the pressure that got to the quarterback.“It’s easy to second-guess the final two passes," McCarthy said after the 24-21 loss Thursday night. "The pressure was coming. It’s one-on-one outside. I wanted to give my playmaker a chance."After Jayden Daniels bounced back from his first two interceptions of the season to lead a go-ahead scoring drive, the Giants got the ball back with less than a minute on the clock. McCarthy had his chance to author a signature performance in prime time.It started strong, with a 21-yard completion to Malachi
