The New York Football Giants have made their way into the postseason conversation.
Bobby Hammond scored on an 84 yard punt return in the first quarter and a 78 yard run in the fourth quarter to lead the Giants over the Cincinnati Bengals 28-21.
The Giants led 21-3 at the half before the Bengals rallied to tie the game in the fourth before Hammond busted loose on his game-winning run.
The Giants moved to 6-5 and second place in the NFC East and a tie for the second Wild Card spot.
The loss may have doomed Cincinnati's playoff hopes as they drop to 6-5 and third in the AFC Central.
