| 0:00.0 | Week 1 is fully and completely in the books. |
| 0:05.8 | One of the games that happened at 1 o'clock Eastern, one of those sluggish games that didn't have an exciting ending because the Giants weren't ready to meet the moment. |
| 0:12.9 | Washington wins 21 to 6. |
| 0:15.3 | The New York offense struggled throughout the game. |
| 0:18.1 | Russell Wilson completed only 17 of 37 passes for 168 yards. |
