Since the 2013 season which covers the last 5 games here are the results;
Washington:
2013 24-17 Win AWAY
2013 20-6 Win HOME
2014 45-14 Win AWAY
2014 24-13 Win HOME
2015 32-21 Win HOME
Giants have outscored the Skins 145-71 in those games,
with the average score being 29-14

Philadelphia;
2013 36-21 Loss HOME
2013 15-7 Win AWAY
2014 27-0 Loss AWAY
2014 36-24 Loss HOME
2015 27-7 Loss AWAY
Giants have been outscored 133-67 in those games,

They are playing a he'll of a lot better than in past.
Each game is an entity unto itself..

I pay little attention to trends given how each game can be determined by the bounce or bounces of the ball, imo..

I believe we win because we're better and not because of any recent trends..Imo
The Giants secondary has to catch

I agree with you 100% BB56. Especially a trend that covers 5+ years. Totally different teams.

Oddly, you can sometimes see a problem one has with a sort of nemesis, a real PIA. This is the case with the Giants-Eagles and Giants-Skins for Washington.

Over time, the fortunes will flip but I'd gladly give one or 2 back to the Skins to slap a few nice losses on my most hated team in the NFL.

Sean, was that the game that had the magical Bob fumble-no a touchdown play?

That game is a perfect example of how one point can change a season, history, and careers. Griffin got the luckiest bounce you will ever see, but it led to a series of events that helped destroy his career. Had the Giants recovered that ball, DC probably loses the game and never hosts Seattle in the playoffs. Griffin's knee also doesn't fold up like a lawn chair and he probably goes into 2013 healthy. Griffin and Shanahan's career trajectories could have turned out much better. Although, I tend to think Griffin's fragile body and massive ego would have eventually caused him to implode in a similarly spectacular fashion.
