On offense, the match up is favorable for us. The Detroit Lions are ranked 27th in total defense. 24th against the pass, and 22nd against the run. I expect Campbell to be able to sit in the pocket comfortably and just unleash. I feel Campbell has more confidence in the shotgun formation. And hopefully Zorn will let him operate from there more often. Redskins shouldn't have any trouble driving down the field, and I expect more aggressive play calling in the red zone. Campbell should be able to distribute the ball to everyone, and Portis galloping over 100 yards and his first TD of the season.

Redskins 20
Lions 14

It's simple. Bracket coverage on Johnson. It works every time. Just look how easily other teams take Moss out of games. I bet it didn't even occur to the Saints and Vikings, but we're smarter than them

Sike! He's going to get his. Only the Skins use that BS bracket coverage excuse.
