we must protect this house!!

[Scott]

OK, so after this past week things around DC are definitely calming down. I am not saying that this loss was a good thing, but since it happened we have to use it as motivation. Hopefully the team now realizes that every game they go into is going to be a dogfight.
With the way the East is shaping up, winning at home is required. With the hated Eagles coming to play in primetime, the skins really need to step up and prove that they are a legitimate contender for the division.
Obvious Keys to the game are
preventing turnovers
causing turnovers
establishing a run game to open up the pass
Not so obvious keys to the game:
spreading the ball during the passing game
establishing a drop back style passing game instead of designed rolls...the defenses are expecting the rolls and compensating with a heavy zone to the roll side
the defense especially linebackers, need to read blocking schemes and have faith in the d-line to stuff the run
what are your keys to the game?
