Battle for first place Skins vs Gints pregame thread

[NoCalHail]

IMO, the money right now is on the Giants winning the division if for no other reason than Coughlin and Eli. Eli can be up and down, but he is clutch and I can see him going on a run of good performances as we draw closer to December. The Giants coaching staff is proven, they will have them ready.

With that said, the 'Skins have to be looking at this game as a must or at least near-must win kind of game. Bad division or not, how big would it to be for the team and the fan base to see "Washington 1st place in NFCE" going into December with 5 games left? Usually right now the fan base is looking at possible draft position.

The thing about the NFC East is that even though it is a bad division, it also keeps every team thinking they can win it until they are officially mathematically eliminated so especially in division games we should expect to see that extra fire in teams to go out and win.

I will be honest and say I am just not ready to say we will win this game. The Giants are not a much better team than us, but I think they have a few intangibles that this team is not exhibiting yet.

However..................I am going to go against my head and go with my heart. Hopkins kicks a GW FG as time expires. 27-24 'Skins!
