First round pick out of Baylor for the Washington Redskins, Robert Griffin III learned his lesson from the two-time Super Bowl MVP younger Manning. The 'skins were down 20-16 in the fourth quarter when they completed a 77 yard drive capped of by a 30 yard touchdown pass by RG3 to Santana Moss. RG3 threw 20 completions out of 28 attempts for 258 yards two touchdowns and one interception. Washington kept the drive alive on a fourth-and-10 when RG3 scrambled to get a first down. He ended up rushing for 83 yards on only nine carries. But with 1:13 left on the clock, it took Eli Manning one play to complete a game-winning pass to Victor Cruz. Manning has an impressive 22 fourth-quarter comeback history, this being his second of the season and 8th over the past two seasons. The New York Giants now move up to 5-2 atop the NFC East, while the Redskins drop to 3-4.
