Re: Game Preview: Redskins @ Lions

For what it's worth.

From Sportsline.com - Week 3 Fantasy Football Matchups:

This matchup isn't as easy as it looks for the Redskins, whose offense has been non-existent thus far. One problem: They're not utilizing their receivers properly, something they might be able to fix this week. The Lions' secondary was shredded by the Saints and chewed up by the Vikings, so there are no excuses for the Redskins. Clinton Portis should lead the charge, but the Redskins can loosen up the Lions' defense by quick-hitting passes to Santana Moss and down the middle to Chris Cooley. Even the mostly invisible Malcolm Kelly could find a favorable matchup and deliver some stats. But the Lions have been playing aggressively and might bring a decent pass rush to Jason Campbell, which hurts his upside. The Lions also have a tough matchup as the Redskins have been doing well against the pass. Calvin Johnson should see double coverage for much of the game, and that means Matthew Stafford will have to rely on his other receivers. If Detroit comes out with a heavy dose of Kevin Smith, much like they've done in its first two games, they could control the clock some and move the chains, both of which will go a long way toward clinching their first win since 2007.
