Giants at Redskins game day: Washington wins, 20-14, and takes over first place

Final
New York made it interesting with fourth-quarter touchdown catches from Rueben Randle and Odell Beckham Jr., the latter of the jaw-dropping variety. But Washington hung on to win, 20-14, and at 5-6, for the moment, sits atop the NFC East.

Here’s Liz Clarke’s early-version game story. An excerpt:

With so much riding on the game, Coach Jay Gruden declared it a “one-game season” in the week of practice leading up the contest.

And it delivered a season’s worth of drama, with the Redskins twice intercepting Manning in the first quarter only to come away with no points.
