Is the NFC East as wide open as it seems? The Giants and the Eagles are the division’s prohibitive favorites, but the Redskins are no slouches, which they proved today in a close, hard-fought loss to the aforementioned Giants.
Redskins’ Comeback Not Enough to Dethrone Giants
The Redskins trailed for much of the game -- let’s not get ahead of ourselves here -- but a late touchdown brought the score to 23-17, and a recovered onside kick by Giants wideout Steve Smith kept the Redskins from stealing the game away.
But the lesson is pretty clear here: The Redskins can push the Giants, and maybe even the Eagles, in this division. It might not be pretty, but it could happen.
