A game between a 1-7 New York Giants and the 2-5 Washington Football Team has playoff implications.

Yes, you read that right. No typo. A game between two teams with a combined record of 3-12 has playoff implications. In fact, a Washington Football Team win puts them just a half a game out of first place in the NFC East.
