Packers Game #3 - Washington Redskins

Packers are ready to hit the road.  And, the Packer Buddies will be there!

What do we know about the Redskins?

New QB!  Alex Smith. A very good veteran(14th year).  Good, but never great.  A reasonably good athlete.  Started with 49ers, then some good years with the Chiefs, now in Washington.

Redskins Offense
WR - Josh Doctson, Jamison Crowder, & Paul Richardson
OL - Trent Williams, Shawn Lauvao, Chase Roullier, Brandon Scherff, Morgan Moses
TE - Jordan Reed
RB - Adrian Peterson
QB - Alex Smith

Redskins Defense
DE - Jonathan Allen & Matt Ioanidid
NT - Daron Payne
OLB - Preston Smith & Ryan Kerrigan
ILB - Zach Brown & Mason Foster
CB - Quinton Dunbar & Josh Norman
S - Montae Nicholson & OJ Swearinger

Game 1 Redskins 24 - Cardinals 6
Game 2 - Colts 21 - Redskins 9

Redskins Offense has some weapons.  Reed, at tight end is one of the best.  He needs to be contained!  The receivers half some experience and are steady.  But, no outstanding receivers that usually give the Packers headaches!  Veteran Peterson is still a danger!  He has lost a step, but still very physical!

Redskins Defense has been stingy so far this year. Playing two teams that are not very good, the Defense is ranked 1st giving up 247 yards a game.  Packers offense is ranked 17th with 360 yards a game.  At corner, veteran Josh Norman is a good one & has been through many NFL games!  Outside linebacker, Ryan Kerrigan, is the real deal!

Packers should win this game if they wish to be considered a Super Bowl contender!  This game will tell us a lot about our season!
