N.Y. Giants at Washington, 5:30 p.m. (ESPN): The stakes could hardly be bigger for the Redskins (5-6), who have climbed back into the playoff picture with back-to-back wins in which Robert Griffin III has thrown for eight touchdowns and a 146.1 rating. Standing in their way are the Super Bowl champion Giants (7-4), who have carved themselves a nice lead in the NFC East. Both teams attributed recent bye weeks for regaining momentum after difficult stretches. The Redskins lost three straight before their week off and are 2-0 since. The Giants recharged the batteries after two bad losses, then came back to rout Green Bay. – AP
