EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It's over, no thanks to the Philadelphia Eagles. The New York Giants' hopes of an unexpected NFC East title ended on Sunday night when the Washington Football Team beat the short-handed and unmotivated Eagles 20-14 in a Week 17 game that left the Giants organization frustrated.
It was a roller coaster of a game; Washington took a quick 10-0 lead, Philadelphia rallied to go ahead 14-10, and Washington went back ahead before Philadelphia turned to its third-string quarterback while it was still a three-point game early in the fourth quarter.
