And follow that up with an awkward Jackson/Andy Reid Mid-Air Bump for good measure:

DeSean Jackson caught a touchdown pass and returned a punt 72 yards for a score, as the Philadelphia Eagles gained sole possession of first place in the

East with a wild 45-38 victory over the New York Giants.Jackson sat out last Sunday’s 34-7 win over Atlanta due to a concussion, but came back with a sparkling performance of six catches for 178 yards, as the Eagles (9-4) won their fourth straight contest and moved a game past Dallas for the top spot in the division. The Cowboys suffered a 20-17 home loss to San Diego earlier Sunday.

Plenty more on tonight’s Quasi-NFC East Championship Game at both Bleeding Green Nation and Big Blue View.

This primetime showdown essentially serves as an elimination game for the Giants in regards to their quest for a second straight NFC East crown. A Philadelphia win at the Meadowlands would not only give the Eagles a two-game lead on New York with only three to play in the regular season, but the tie- breaker advantage as well by virtue of a series sweep. Philly routed the G-Men by a 40-17 score when these longtime foes met at Lincoln Financial Field back in early November, New York’s most lopsided loss to the Eagles in 13 years.
