By Ted Schwerzler | Sep 25, 2014

The National Football League season is off to a blistering start, and there has been plenty of headlines through the first three weeks of the year.

Despite both the New York Giants and Washington Redskins now being their normal selves this year, the rivalry is still well fueled. With Robert Griffin III out for this game, it will be on Kirk Cousins to lead the Redskin to victory.

EA Sports has once again provided an unmatched football experience in Madden 15, and it has proved to be a very respectable tool when it comes to picking matchups this season as well.

Here’s how Madden 15 sees Thursday Night Football shaking out:

New York Giants (6) Washington Redskins (31)

Kirk Cousins 173 yards 3 touchdowns
Alfred Morris 20 carries 88 yards
DeSean Jackson 5 receptions 49 yards 1 touchdown
Pierre Garcon 4 receptions 48 yards 1 touchdown

It looks as if Madden 15 believes Kirk Cousins will pick up right where he left off last week against the Eagles. Despite the loss, Cousins was able to sling the ball all over the field, and racked up quite an impressive performance. Although Madden 15 doesn’t see him having another huge yardage game, the three touchdowns are more than respectable.

Make sure to tune into Thursday Night Football this week to see how Madden 15 did with its prediction, and check back on Sunday and Monday for the final marquee matchups.
