What happening?
If the fading New York Giants want to stay in playoff contention, they can't afford to slip up against the 4-9 Redskins. New York trails Dallas by one game for second place in the NFC East. More importantly, the Cowboys lead for the second and final wild card spot as well. Green Bay is the only other NFC team in contention for a wild card spot with a winning record, so it could be a two-team race between Dallas and New York for that spot.
Washington has only won two of its last five games, but the Redskins have been competitive in each game. Despite being five games under .500, they've only been outscored by 17 points.
Their last three losses have been by a combined seven points � vs. Dallas, Philadelphia and New Orleans. One thing they haven't done yet is beat an NFC East opponent; they've won at least one division game per season since 1993.
An improved offense has made them more competitive.
Sherman Lewis has taken over as a play-caller, but he's received lots of help in the booth and is only responsible for pass plays. It's been the game plans, which Lewis doesn't craft, and the execution by the players -- especially quarterback Jason Campbell -- that has made a difference. He's posted three 100-plus passer rating days in the past five games.
This will be a difficult game for New York. One reason the Giants have won three straight over Washington is because of their line play. But neither side of the ball is performing as expected. The Redskins' OL remains an issue, but game planning has helped overcome glaring holes. The big concern is not allowing big plays downfield. Or, rather, a lot of them. New York will make them considering Washington surrenders them in most games. The key will be the Redskins' ability to pressure Manning and forcemistakes. They have been close against good teams. Right now, the Giants aren't a good team.
