Comments:
When the Giants are at the top of their game, they can play with anybody in the league. But boy, when they play poorly, they can really stink up the joint.
The Redskins have the longest winning streak in the NFC (5 games), second overall only to the Broncos (9 games).
The Seahawks are now 5-1 in their last 6, including a couple high-margin wins in their last two. But the Vikings and Bears are the only opponents they've faced in that run that still have a chance at the playoffs.
The 49ers get a big win over one of the best teams in the league. But they also gave up the most points and yards of any game they've played this year, including a stunning stretch of 28 unanswered points. They could be in trouble if other teams can use that as a blueprint to move the ball on their defense.
The Browns clinch their 5th straight losing season. They've only had 2 winning seasons in the 14 years since their 1999 reboot.
