Win over the eagles. Its good to have rg3 back. He did have kind of like a bionic leg. Wasnt his old self running all over the place. But they didnt have to do much. This team is kind of met morph sizing in front of our eyes. I like that word. Another word we could throw out is maybe destiny, this team now a team of destiny, have not lost a game for seven weeks and today it came full circle because this crazy run of games began against the eagles five wins ago, never would have thought that win would kick off. This lets take a look at the highlights, the skins happy to have rg3 back on the field with that knee braced up. The final play of the 1st quarter skins down 70, nick foles industrialed by ryan kerrigan. Richard crawford johnny on the spot scoops it up, one of two turnovers on the day, a season high five sacks in this game. Led to the first of two kai forbath field goals. 2nd quarter skins find the end zone for the first time, griffin to josh morgan from 11 out, burgundy gold 137, up 13 10 at the break. In the 2nd half its Alfred Morris chipping away at that franchise season rushing record, 22 rushes, 91yard, just 104 yards shy of that record. Skins up 2010. Late 3rd a perfect pass from rg3 to santana moss from 22 yards out with another look. Look at that, keeps one foot down, drags the other. Thats a touchdown, but the two touchdown lead was trimmed to one, eight seconds left, eagles with a chance to time. Nick foles gets the pass away, but it doesnt get past the line of scrimmage. The eagles swept for the First Time Since 2008 skins win 2720 to make it six wins in a row. Playing the best ball that we have all year at the right time. Were rolling and we all that know. Its been change in our mindset since after the bye week. I think everybody is just dialed in now. We know that we can win any kind of game we have to whether its a high scoring game or low scoring game or gut wrencher at the end. Weve been working for this opportunity to win the division. Time in you win the Division Everybody knows you have a home field gain in the playoffs. We talked about that from day one. They knew what we had to do to get there. I told them we havent accomplish anything yet. Weve got to win the division, get it done next week. Six straight wins, their longest regular season winning streak since 1996. Next week its the cowboys, winner clinches the division title. They need the bears and vikings to lose if they dont win, but a surefire way, just win next week here at fedex field against dallas. Time is running out for Christmas Shopping and the redskins push to the playoffs. There were payouts for both today. Fox 5s karen gray houston is live with the story. Loud out there, karen.

These folks are all shopped out and some other shoppers or a redskins high. At the Tysons Center mall mostly shoppers were here to shop. But on game day when the stakes are high, redskins fans do not want to miss out on the action. My wife and i are really big rg3 fans and they held on, a nice big sense of relief when that intentional grounding call came at the end. Reporter at nortons American Grill a 2721 over the eagles was like going to heaven. How did rg3 do . He did well. He threw for two touchdowns and an interception wasnt bad, right . Theres a difference with this team. Its a team that really is a team. Robert griffin, iii is their leader, but like they really play as a team. Alfred morris has been a great back for the season. They really look good. Reporter what about the cowboys next weekend . Theyre playing at redskins Home Field Advantage and with the divisional win were pumped up and can. Reporter some spouses let their significant others shop while they eyeballed the game. Dont get me wrong. Some shoppers were here to finish last minute Holiday Shopping. Is santa coming to your house . No. Reporter really . Been a naughty boy this year. Reporter but redskins fever was evident everywhere, especially after rg3 and the gang eked out a win. I just came out here because the redskins won and i wanted to, you know, do a little shopping after the redskins won, my victory lap. Reporter others stood in a very long line to take the kids to see santa. I want a bright light pillow and some other stuff. Reporter what are you going to ask for . For a helicopter and a batman tower and a goldfish and blades. Reporter the retailers have tried really hard to get customers attention. We noticed some discounts 60 to 80 off. It looks as if consumers might be a little nervous about the approaching fiscal cliff and the possibility of those tax increases and spending cuts, but i did manage to do a little shopping while i was out here and if youre good, ill bring a Little Something back to you. Oh, karen gray houston, always multitasking, i appreciate that. Well see you back here. I cant wait to see what you got me. Meantime fox 5 is tracking santa as he gets ready to take flight. The u. S. Military released this preview clip of santa claus. This is norad, the north American Aerospace defense command. While we count down to christmas we are also tracking the holiday forecast. Fox 5s gwen tolbart joins us now from the weather center. Weve asked about the chances for a white christmas. Anything new tonight perhaps . Weve got a little active weather moving into the course of tomorrow, but i am not looking at it bringing us anything in terms of a white christmas. Lets look at the maps. Heres a look at our satellite and radar composite, a few clouds moving into the south of us. We had rail bright day, plenty of sunshine a really bright day, plenty of sunshine due to a ridge of high pressure. We have a freezing rain advisory in effect from 6 a. M. Until noon on monday to the west of us and we are talking a period of freezing rain and sleet early in the morning. Then well see some snow mixing in a little later, but less than an inch of accumulation as far as the snow is concerned and less than. 1inch accumulation of ice. Just keeping a close eye on this system. Heres a look at the numbers today. We reached 47 at all three airports today, temperatures slightly above the seasonal average for the day and right now it is chiy out there, 38 degrees at reagan national, 31 at baltimore, only 27 at manassas, 28 at dulles. So were in for a pretty cool night looking at 35 degrees becoming mostly cloudy, cool and cold by the time we get through into the overnight hours. We have some unsettled days ahead, but so far christmas looks pleasant. Ill have those details later on and im like that little guy. Im going to get my christmas list into santa, too. Of course you can get your up to the minute holiday forecasts on the fox 5 weather app. Download it from the Apple App Store or the Android Market or text fox 5 weather to 29473. Some extra love for a little girl shot on a metrobus earlier this month. 2yearold codys mother selina brown died in that shooting on minnesota avenue and southeast. Cody needs reconstructive surgery, so a few folks organized a fundraiser and toy drive to make her christmas happier. We wanted to reach out to the family to give them some type of Community Support to let them know that the community is behind them. We send them our deepest condolences. I just was like i have to go out and get whatever i can for her. Bring her spirits up, you know, and that this is something she will remember and it will always comfort her knowing that people love her. Isnt that wonderful. Codys grandmother will now raise her. So the organizers hoped they could show the family they didnt have to handle everything alone. Coming up it is the hot button issue of the week, gun control. Tonight the nra speaks out again on the issue, this time on one of the sunday morning talks shows. Plus or fox 5 political analyst weighs in on the issue. Plus well introduce you to an inspirational little girl whose only wish for the holidays is to give back to santa one letter at a time.  the head of the National Prime association is not backing down from his calls for Rifle Association is not backing down from his calls for an armed guard in every school in america. Neither of those calling for stricter gun laws. The two sides squared off outside a gun shop today in virginia. Reporter this was a very small protest involving only about a dozen people, but they say their message is big, change the gun laws now before more innocent people get hurt. The protests took place outside nova firearms on west broad street in falls church. As people of faith, we believe in compassion and care and love. Reporter led by father jim birch, the group face united for gun sanity, is calling for two key changes. Guns are responsible for the slaughter of innocence time and time again in america. So were calling for two things, the end of assault weapons and clips and funding of Mental Health programs. I would recommend a revolver similar to this one. Reporter nova firearms chief instructor chuck nesby says whether than banning weapons he thinks the emphasis ought to be on teaching how to properly secure them. Obviously in the case in connecticut the lady did not have her firearms secured from a mentally illegal person, but thats something thats doable. Reporter nesby says all the talk about banning guns suns the tragedy has sent sales soaring. Since the tragedy has sent sales soaring. About a 400 increase. Why is that . People are afraid of the government. Theyre afraid of their second amount. Rights being restricted to protect themselves. Reporter senator mark warner who has an a rating from the nra is weighing in on the issue, too. If my memory is correct, there actually was an armed individual at columbine years ago and it didnt prevent that tragedy. So i think we need a comprehensive approach. I think it looks at Mental Health and protecting our schools and i also think it looks at these high volume magazines, you know, that can fire off so many rounds. Reporter father birch says people of faith cant stay silent on the gun issue any longer. To get into a place where we are defined not by the caliber of our character, but by the caliber of our weapon is a disgrace. Reporter senator Dianne Feinstein who introduced the assault weapons ban that expired in 2004 has already said she will introduce similar legislation again in january. Back to you. Thank you, audrey. Between this and the fiscal cliff debates there is a lot to talk about in politics tonight. Were bringing in as always fox 5 political analyst mark plotkin. Good to see you tonight. Good to be here. Lets start where audrey left off, the nras Wayne Lapierre called senator feinsteins proposals a phoney bit of legislation built on lies and said it wont pass. Why . I think theres an entirely different climate. I think Wayne Lapierre is out of touch with public mood. You just ran claim of senator mark warner, a rating nra who is obviously rethinking his position. Senator manchin of west virginia, a proud nra member, has said that there has to be fundamental change and so i think you have people who were really advocates of leaving the gun control measures alone have now shifted and i think there is going to be legislation. The only problem is you mention the Dianne Feinstein is that in the past people have that had assault weapons before the ban were grandfathered in. So theyre going to have to look that the. There seems to be this look at that. There seems to be this myth in the nra that very powerful politician goes up against them. Should people fear the nra and why . Where does this come from and why are they this untouchable group no one should challenge . There are 4 million members. They put their money where their mouth is, but in the last election cycle they didnt do well at all. They profiled certain senators for defeat and with the exception of one they all lost. They said that barack obama who has really been to call him cautious would be almost kind really silent on the issue. They said he would be a disaster. They lost with him. So i think that their political muscle has been very much diminished and whether its been diminished or not people now who were formerly pro nra and were fearful of them are now ready to change their positions and vote against them. I want to move on and talk about the fiscal cliff. Speaker john boehner certainly taking a huge hit last week with his plan b proposal, didnt even get off the ground with his own party. Where does this leave things now . In some ways boehner was prophetic and said only gods knows. So mark plotkin doesnt know, but i really think it will be a much smaller version. In the end theyll come up with something and it will probably be some breakaway republicans, if there are any in the house, and the Senate Democrats to at least come up with something and then work toward the next year. You think there will be a deal . A miniaturized deal. Lastly lets talk about this cabinet positions, appointments made. Were hearing former republican senator chuck hagel may be nominated secretary of defense, but a Little Something going on. Whats it all about . Hes considered against gay right, not sufficiently pro israel negotiating with iran and even republicans like john cornyn of texas said theyre going to come out against him. It almost seems like susan rice all over again and they might appoint the the president might appoint the first woman secretary of defense michelle flornoy or someone named Ashton Carter in the defense department. They dont want a confirmation battle with all the other things happening. Were keeping our eye on a comber of things in the upcoming number of things in the upcoming weeks with fox 5 political analyst mark plotkin. Idaho republican Michael Crapo was pulled over at 1 a. M. This morning in alexandria at hume and mount vernon avenues. An officer reportedly saw the senator run a red light. He was arrested, taken to jail and released on bond. The senator released a statement saying in part, i am deeply sorry. I made a mistake for which i apologize to my family, constituents and any others who put their trust in me. I accept total responsibility and will deal with whatever penalty comes my way. The senator is due in Court January 4th.

Fox 5s matt ackland took a look at the numbers. Reporter work has been underway for weeks to build a viewing stand in front of the john a. Wilson building. Its a great spot. The mayor and Council Members along with invited guests will sit in this heated room as the parade and president pass by. Heres a shot from four years ago. But when we asked d. C. s department of General Services how much it cost to build, we were told 342,000. 340,000 for one day what . Thats a waste of money. Reporter were told that money is paid by the district but is reimbursed by the federal government. The district government also oversees the building of the viewing stand and media riser near the white house. A d. C. General Services Spokesperson told us the cost for the project at the white house and Wilson Building add up to 2. 8 million. To be honest with you, sir, they should put that money in trying to create jobs because a lot of people is out of work. Reporter but some say that money is well spent providing needed jobs to builders and allowing the nation to celebrate its president. Its good for the nation. Thats okay. Reporter already the Wilson Building has large windows that look over pennsylvania avenue. In fact, many Council Members plan to hold parties here during the parade, but if thats not good enough, this well built heated expensive addition out front is one of the best seats in town. So who pays for all this . Well, contacts inside the president ial inaugural committee and National Park service says the money will come from the federal government to pay for these projects. In the district matt ackland, fox 5 news. Sports is next when the news at 10 00 returns. Coming up a different rg3 took to the field against the eagles but with the same results. Scott smith is up next with sports. Lots of sunshine today, temperatures well a result of the jet stream. To the north of us well see our temperatures sticking around into the 40s, but weve got some changes coming. Well have the details coming up a little later. Well be back after the break. Talking redskins football and boy, we are loving it. This team is on a roll and just looking good. My husband who has been a fan since he was yea high said today my team is back we assume hes taller than yea high right now. Hes all grown up. We focus so much on robert griffin, iii, but we just learned what else this team is capable of. One of the Unsung Heroes is that whole defensive unit. Today we saw some of that stepping up today. Theres an old saying defense wins championships, but more specifically turnovers win championships. Thats one area the redskins have played at a championship level causing multiple turnovers in all but one of the games in their current winning streak which explains how they can get outgained by nearly 100 yards and still win. In the final seconds of the 1st quarter eagles up 70 and the skins. The fumble recovered by Richard Crawford leading to a kai forbath 42yard field goal, skins on the board. 2nd quarter now 76. Nick foles pass deflected by Barry Cofield picked off by london fletcher, now the Third Straight game fletch has had an interception. Five plays later rg3 quick pass to josh morgan. He finds his way in from 11 yards out for the score. Skins with the lead for good from there, 137 in the 3rd quarter. Skins up 2013. Eagle goes for it on a 4th and 2. Ryan kerrigan sends his blocker and Lorenzo Alexander credited with the sack as the skins seven plays later capitalize from seven plays later griffin on a 3rd and 10 connecting with santana moss, a beautiful pitch and catch. Look at moss, gets one foot planted, the other one drags. Thats a touchdown as the redskins hold on to sweep the eagles 2720, six game regular winning streak, the teams longest since 1996. We did some good things in the 1st half of this season, but we couldnt put teams away and i thought from an offensive perspective we had the running game going, but we didnt take it to the next lev with our receivers and i thought level with our receivers and i thought thats probably been the biggest difference in our offense is how the receivers have performed over the last six games. Weve got to get sacks and turnovers. Weve been able to do that on defense. I was really proud the way they finished. You got to find a way to win those tight games. Theyre not easy unless everybody is on the same page. Rg3 not much of a running threat today, just two carries, really just one. First skins possession where we start and hes moving gingerly as he gains 5 yards and safely runs out of bounds. The only other carry would be a kneeldown the end of the 1st half. In the 2nd quarter you see a little more mobility on a 3rd and 8 eagles 24. Hes plushed out of the pocket, buying some time. He throws it away. He gets pushed out of bounds, so not running really part of his arsenal today but still getting the job done. Whatever i felt like during the game and so thats why they call me quarterback. Its ant abbreviated with a running quarterback before that or whatever else anyone wants to say. They call me quarterback because i lead the team. Im supposed to go out there, throw the ball arks cyst the ball and hand it off to al ball, assist the ball and hand it off to alfred. You wonder how much mobile came down to the knee brace itself. That thing was huge and kind of encompassed most of his leg. If thats the issue and the knee is one more step towards being fully healed next brace, maybe he doesnt have the knee on there. Unleash the fury. Thanks, scott. Coming up some last minute shoppers are still out and about at this hour with less than two days until christmas, which stores are keeping their doors open a little longer.

Foxs David Lee Miller has a rundown of this years holiday hustle. Reporter an estimated 5. 6 million americans are expected to take to the air this holiday season, two days before christmas so far so good. Look at the arrival and departure boards here at Laguardia Airport in queens, new york. There are no cancellations, no delays, in fact, some flights arriving early. Systemwide this is very encouraging, only about 40 cancellations today, overall 500 delays. Most of the travels are we talked to say they came to the airport expecting the worst, but it looks like its going to be a troublefree day. I just got here, so far so good checking in my bags.

David lee miller, fox news. Im so happy to be staying put. I am, too. Yes. Avoid those crowds. Not much weather to be dealing with really, a little system, i guess, tomorrow. Right. Weve got a second one to watch. Well put it all together because a lot of variables in place here. Today was wonderful, plenty. Sunshine, not a bad day at all. We didnt have to deal with winds. That was a good thing. Heres a beautiful shot of the sky with our National Monuments but things are changing. Weve got a few days that will be unsettled moving into the beginning of the week starting with tomorrow. Christmas day is looking very pleasant, however, so far. Midweek weve got another system to watch. There are two systems were watching and some very cold nights that will stick around. Were not going to get away from those. Todays highs 47 degrees at all three airports, temperatures 2 to 3 degrees above the seasonal average. Lets look at current temperatures now. We are at 38 degrees at d. C. , 32 degrees at quantico this hour, 39 at fredericksburg, 28 at dulles and frederick, 36 in hagerstown, 42 martinsburg. Lows tonight beautiful the low 30s and might be able to even see an upper 20 in some of will be the low 30s and might be able to seen see an upper 20s in some neighborhoods. The map gives a pretty good indication where of . Our frontal systems is. All the cold air on the backside front of moving its way toward the midatlantic will push its way towards us. That will be a factor dealing with this approaching system, the amount of cold air that pushes its way in because well get a surge of moisture coming in. We have to try to determine the type of precipitation well get as a result. You can see how cold it is on the backside with some of these temperatures into the single digits. Some wet weather along areas of the southwest and excuse me, the northwest and southwest. As we look towards the gulf states, a little activity here, some rain moving its way through into atlanta from another system and over the northeast we still have a little bit of light snow activity. For us things are all very calm as far as the skies are concerned. So heres a look at whats going on. Clear skies, a few clouds rolling in from the south. What were cooping an eye on is a system thats keeping an eye on is a system thats going to push its way in through the ohio valley and head our way. Currently tomorrow morning from 6 a. M. Until noon there is a Winter Weather advisory including highland, mineral, grant counties and game from 6 a. M. Until noon. Again from 6 a. M. Until noon. Were talking about a period of sleet and freezing rain and some of it changing into all rain, but depending how the temperatures hold up. These areas we could definitely see slick roads, could see a little snow as well mixed in. Heres a look at futurecast because were keeping an eye on the system as it moves closer towards us. It looks like as we move through winter tomorrow, were talking a variation of precipitation. By noon tomorrow we see some of this moving into the western areas. Once we hit the 2 00 hour weve got this line of mixed precipitation, rain to the south and snow to the north, very little or no accumulation as far as the d. C. Area. To the west of us they could see maybe 1 to 3 inches of aumulation and we get into that rain event. Tuesday were doing well, christmas day, then wednesday back with the Second System. Look at this. Its a little stronger. We could see a little more of the winter precip moving in. Weve got a little wintery mix to deal with because its going right over us, that system. Then we get into a lot of rainfall heading into wednesday. So a lot of variation going on with this forecast. Well keep an eye on it for you. In the meantime heres a look at tomorrow, possible morning sleet and snow mix and then looks like it will change all to rain, little or no accumulation. Lets have a look at the fox 5 accuweather sevenday forecast. Christmas day is absolutely spectacular.
