If the Giants eventually reach the postseason, this will be the week it truly felt attainable.

And not even so much because of anything the Giants did themselves, but rather due to the state of the NFC East and the hysterical slop the division produced in Week 5.

Think about this for a moment — the division just went winless in a week when two of its teams played each other. The Giants were lucky to escape with a roller-coaster tie against the Commanders, and somehow they actually increased their lead atop the division.

That’s the perfect encapsulation of the NFC Least right now.
