Giants defeat Redskins for first win of season

The NFC East is off to an ugly start this season. Thursday night's game continued the trend, but Tom Coughlin and the New York Giants will see the 32-21 victory over the Redskins as a work of art.

The Giants improved to 1-2 on the season with a true team effort. New York's defense forced three turnovers, including an early interception by Prince Amukamara that set the tone. Eli Manning led methodical drives, and avoided any loose throws. Even the special teams got into the act with an early punt block for a safety.
