Yawn...maybe the Redskins will win this game and be slightly more likely to make the playoffs...or this game has no bearing on the playoff picture whatsoever. Can the Giants keep up the momentum from their win over the Chiefs (you can stop laughing now), or will the Redskins actually do something noteworthy for once?
Predictions:
A team will win. And their record will improve...I jest of course, but seriously, if the Giants win this game, I will jump in frozen Lake Ontario. Do the Redskins want a playoff spot? Then this is the time to prove it. On paper, the Redskins competent defense shouldn't have any problem holding down the high school team pretending to be the Giants, and Cousins should melt the Giants defense like linburger cheese. And yet, we've seen stranger things this season. The sun may have set on McAdoo's playoff hopes, but the Giants have found ways to beat two teams they shouldn't have beat.
Game Recap:
This was sad...A boring showdown of offensive ineptitude in the first half, in which both teams seemed to be playing to not lose, rather than playing to win. The Redskins pulled it out as expected in the second half, when Cousins found Jamison Crowder in the end zone late in the third to make the game 10-3. Washington fans shouldn't celebrate yet, however. That 53-yard pick six by Janoris Jenkins (who plays for the 31st RANKED DEFENSE IN THE NFL, BTW) was proof that Washington's offense still has a long way to go. Josh Doctson's receiving TD may have iced the game for the Redskins, but Jay Gruden's boys will have to do a lot better in the games ahead if they want to turn heads in the NFC.
