Notes and statistics to get you ready for the Week 4 matchup between the New York Giants (0-3) and Los Angeles Chargers (3-0) at MetLife Stadium.

All-time series

Sunday will be just the 14^th meeting of the interconference foes. The Chargers lead the all-time series 8-5, including a current five-game winning streak as they have met every four years in that span. The Giants' last victory over the Chargers was at Qualcomm Stadium on Sept. 27, 1998. The Giants intercepted rookie Ryan Leaf, the No. 2 overall pick in the draft, four times en route to a 34-16 victory.

Where are they now

The Chargers are 3-0 for the first time since the 2002 season, having already defeated all three of their AFC West foes by a combined score of 70-50. It is the first time they have started 3-0 against their division since 1996. The Chargers have not won the AFC West since 2009, their longest drought in franchise history. Under Jim Harbaugh, who took over as head coach in 2024, the Chargers have won six consecutive regular-season games, the longest active streak in the NFL entering Week 4.

The Giants, meanwhile, are still in search of their first win this season. After opening their 101st campaign with back-to-back road games in the NFC East, they went into a two-game homestand against the AFC West. They fell to the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football, falling to 0-3 on the season. The Giants are 8-8 against AFC opponents under Brian Daboll, who previously spent his entire NFL coaching career in the conference.

When the Giants have the ball

🏈 The news of the week was the quarterback change to rookie Jaxson Dart, the 25^th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Russell Wilson, who made his 200th, 201st and 202nd career starts this season, will be the backup.

🏈 Dart is the fourth rookie quarterback selected in Round 1 to start for the Giants in the common draft era (Phil Simms in 1979, Eli Manning in 2004, Daniel Jones in 2019).

🏈 According to NFL Research, the Ole Miss product becomes the first quarterback since Teddy Bridgewater in 2014 to be drafted in the second half of the first round and start a game within the first four weeks of his rookie season. Quarterbacks are 2-2 in such starts since 2000.

🏈 The first test will be a hard one. The Chargers have allowed 17.6 points per game since the start of the 2024 season, the best in the NFL. Including his first NFL head coaching stint with the 49ers, rookie quarterbacks are 2-8 against Harbaugh. In a twist of fate, one of those wins came from Wilson in 2012 with the Seahawks.

🏈 The Chargers boast 12 games with fewer than 20 points allowed since 2024, tied for the most in the NFL.

🏈 The Chargers enter Sunday with the No. 1 red zone defense in touchdown efficiency (25 percent). The Giants have scored a touchdown on just 20 percent of their trips inside the 20.

🏈 All-Pro safety Derwin James Jr. had a career-high four tackles for loss last week. He was one of just five players in the NFL last season – and the only defensive back – to have at least 70 tackles, five sacks, an interception and five passes defensed.

🏈 Wide receiver Malik Nabers was held to career lows in receptions (two) and receiving yards (13) in Week 3. It broke a streak of 17 consecutive games with at least four receptions. Only Michael Thomas had a longer such streak of games (19) to begin a career since 1970.

🏈 In their last time out, rookie running back Cam Skattebo led the Giants in rushing (10 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown) and receiving (six catches for 61 yards) after Tyrone Tracy Jr. went down with a shoulder injury. The fourth-round pick from Arizona State became the eighth rookie in franchise history to produce 60+ receiving yards and 60+ rushing yards in the same game. He also forced seven missed tackles along the way, according to Next Gen Stats, and racked up 58 yards after catch.

🏈 Skattebo now ranks fifth among NFL rookies in yards from scrimmage entering Week 4. The other four were all drafted three rounds ahead of him, including the Chargers' Omarion Hampton.

When the Chargers have the ball

🏈 Brian Burns is in a three-way tie for second in the NFL with four sacks. Green Bay's Rashan Gary enters Week 4 with a half-sack lead over them. Burns is the only player with at least four sacks and three passes defensed in the league.

🏈 Justin Herbert leads the NFL with 860 pass yards through three weeks and is looking to become the first player in NFL history with zero interceptions in 10 consecutive road games (minimum 15 attempts in each game). Since he was drafted sixth overall in 2020, Herbert's interception rate of 1.5 percent is the second-lowest in the NFL.

🏈 Herbert has been sacked 10 times this season, fifth-most in the league entering Week 4.

🏈 The Chargers are the only team in the NFL to have multiple players with at least three touchdown catches (Quentin Johnston and Keenan Allen). Ladd McConkey, who has yet to find the end zone in 2025, is second on the team with 15 receptions.

🏈 Running back Najee Harris suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in Week 3. Rookie Omarion Hampton stepped up and became the third Chargers rookie in the past 50 seasons to have 70+ rush yards and 50+ receiving yards in a single game.

According to NFL Research, only three former Ole Miss quarterbacks have started 14 games in the NFL since 1950.

Dart won the Conerly Trophy in 2024, given annually to the best college player in the state of Mississippi.
