The New York Giants sit alone atop the NFC East at 5-2 after a wild late victory over the Washington Redskins on Sunday afternoon. Just when it looked like RGIII pulled off some magic to help the Skins come up with a win, Eli Manning found his favorite target Victor Cruz for a 77-yard touchdown.
Oh, and Jason Pierre-Paul provided the best GIF of the day.

Manning's pass to Cruz came two plays and 19 seconds after Griffin
capped what was a potential game-winning, 77-yard drive with a 30-yard
touchdown pass to Santana Moss. The rookie had kept the drive alive with
a 19-yard pass off a desperate scramble on a fourth-and-10 play deep in
his own territory and a 24-yard run on the next play.
Eli's quick strike to Cruz allowed RGIII and the Skins to get one last crack, but a fumble ended any hope of staying out of the NFC East cellar for Washington.
The Eagles actually sit in a tie for second after the Cowboys defeated the Panthers. Here is what the East looks like after today's games:
