1) When every team in the division is bad, every divisional game means that much more. The New York Giants and Washington Football Team are still playing for first place and the first pick in the NFC East, if not the entire draft. Big Blue (2-7) beat WFT (2-6) for the second time in four weeks, leaving both teams just one win behind the top spot in the division. New York, of course, still has to prove it can beat teams other than Washington if it's going to contend in the NFL's worst division. A plus-five turnover margin is typically the blueprint for a blowout, yet it took two takeaways in the final minutes to prevent a collapse.
2) While New York earned the head-to-head tiebreaker Sunday, Washington holds the advantage for the draft. It might come in handy next April. Halfway through the season, Washington's quarterback question remains unanswered. Kyle Allen's season is likely over after he suffered a dislocated ankle. Alex Smith, in just his second appearance since breaking his ankle two years ago, got hot but cooled late.
