Quick Take: RG3 gets another crack at champs

NFL.com and NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport has his thoughts on the game:

Why this game is intriguing: So, New York Giants defensive lineman Justin Tuck has nightmares about Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III? Well, he's probably not alone in the NFC East. With the way RG3 nearly led his team back to an improbable win in the first meeting with Big Blue, who can blame Tuck? And then there were the back-to-back four-touchdown games from Griffin that yanked the 'Skins back into playoff relevance. These developments have forced the G-Men to take notice of their division rivals. Of course, the Giants themselves returned from their bye week refreshed. Suddenly, Eli Manning can throw again, and that beatdown New York put on the Green Bay Packers served notice to the rest of the league. The offensive fireworks should be loud and colorful. If only this one can pack an epic ending like the last meeting.
