The New York Giants' 34-28 win over the Washington Redskins on Saturday night eliminated St. Louis from the playoff race but it certainly didn't stop the Rams from toying with a Vikings team that seemingly gave up on rookie head coach Brad Childress. Jackson ran for three scores and also took a shovel pass in for the Rams (8-8 |

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey will miss the regular-season finale against the Washington Redskins on Saturday because of an ankle injury. Shockey didn't practice all week, and did not accompany the team to Washington on Friday, team spokesman Avis Roper said. The Pro Bowl tight end had been listed as questionable for Saturday night's game. A win at Washington would virtually assure the Giants (7-8) of a playoff berth. On Thursday, Shockey was seen walking through the locker r |
