If the Giants have any designs on staying atop the NFC East, they better outscore the New Orleans Saints tonight at MetLife. They are currently clinging to a 1/2 game lead over Dallas and Washington…

The Dallas Cowboys (7-6) overcame a 19-10 fourth quarter deficit in Cincinnati this afternoon and beat the Bengals, 20-19 ,at Paul Brown Stadium.  Dan Bailey hit a 40-yard FG at the gun to win it.

In Washington, RGIII was knocked from the game late in fourth quarter with a right knee strain, but fear not Redskin fans. Their other rookie QB – Kirk Cousins – threw a TD and ran in a 2-point conversion to send the Ravens into overtime.  The Redskins won it in overtime, 31-28, on 34 yard FG by Kai Forbath.
