LANDOVER — We have a blowout at FedEx Field — of all-time proportions. 

Washington trails 34-0 at halftime Sunday against the New York Giants. The 34-point differential is the largest halftime deficit the Redskins have faced at FedEx Field. 

Redskins quarterback Mark Sanchez threw two interceptions — one of which was returned for a touchdown. The 32-year-old quarterback was just 5 of 13 for 30 yards in the first half.

But the blame can’t be pinned solely on Sanchez. 

The Giants had 284 yards and have easily scored against a hapless Redskins defense. Running back Saquon Barkley has 159 yards — on only 10 carries. 

Giants quarterback Eli Manning is 10 of 17 for 136 yards and two touchdowns.

Washington also had seven penalties for 75 yards.
