Maryland Lottery My Lottery Rewards, we continue to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of the 1991 championship season by looking back at Week 9 against the Giants.
Coming off their bye, the undefeated Redskins were primed to face the 4-3 Giants in a divisional battle on the road. But New York put up quite a fight at home.

But the Redskins weren't ready to just accept a loss. Instead, they came back in the second half fighting.
Two touchdowns from quarterback Mark Rypien to wide receiver Gary Clark gave the Redskins a slight lead, 14-13. The offense was assisted by winning on third downs, going 10-of-15 in the game to keep New York's tired defense on the field.
Eventually, it was too much to take for the Giants.
The comeback was clinched with a field goal in the fourth quarter to secure the comeback and remain undefeated with a 17-13 victory.
