Hey Cali this will be a hard game to watch that for sure but you never know. On paper this looks like a good old fashion azz wiping but you have to play the game first.

So very true. One big positive is that the players have somewhat of a 'pass' in terms of expectations from fans and media. No one expects them to win so unless they really shit the bed, you can tip your hat, learn and move on.

Then again, if we win...stranger things have happened on any given Sunday.

Some interesting points from Tandler


Excerpt

—The pass rush has been getting to Brady, with and without Solder. He has been sacked 18 times this year, 5.9 percent of his dropbacks (20th in the NFL). But if the Redskins get to him they had better sack him. Per Pro Football Focus, he’s been under pressure on 96 of his 311 dropbacks this year but when he has been able to get the pass off his passer rating is a 118.2. Yeah, that’s a lot better than most quarterbacks are when they have plenty of time to throw.

—The raw stats say that teams have had a reasonable amount of success running against the Patriots. They give up an average of 4.2 yards per carry, 21st in the NFL. The thing is, they don’t have very many rushing attempts against them, presumably because they are averaging 3 points per possession and 35 points per game on offense so the teams are trying to catch up. But if the Redskins can finish drives with touchdowns, the ground might be a promising route.

Always interesting to see how the opposition sees the game. Ben Volin writes up his take on the Skins. Some good film review in the article too.

Does a pretty good job but most notable is the complete lack of mention of Crowder as our slot guy (he has Droperts there) as well as noting Breeland, who will likely be a long shot to play.

Given all the injuries sustained by us this year, no surprise it's hard to keep up with who is playing where in our secondary.

BB will of course not miss who is and is not going to be playing.

Some interesting history between the Pats and Redskins with all sorts of plots and twists. Unfortunately Skins don't come out as SB winners like the Pats ultimately do...

In a funny and ironic twist...the Gnats always seem to be the 'gnat' in the ointment for the Pats.
