Yeah, but we don't play them often, so that 19 years looks worse than it really is.

Interesting stat, I just don't like the idea of tearing down an opponent's success to feel good about the redskins chances. That's underestimating the opponent and having a lack of respect for them. At least a couple of the Packers' opponents on defense have played great in past seasons and still employ the same scheme and have most of their personnel.

Interesting stat indeed. The Skins D has given up a grand total of 2 TD passes all season. I like our chances even more after seeing the relative weakness of pass defenses that Favre has faced.

No one is tearing them down.

They have a good offense, so far, despite the weak opponents. Their passing game is tops in the league and their running game is next-to-last, ranked #31. Our offense is in the top half of the league, more balanced with rushing and passing, doing fairly well in both.

We have one of the top defenses in the league, FAR better than theirs (us 3rd, them 17th and surrender 60 more yards a game than us.


Defense will decide the game and going by stats and the season so far, we have a BIG advantage, especially with their CBs not being healthy: Blackmon - out (foot), Harris - probable (Back), Woodson - probable (foot)

Well, when they did want to run the ball on the Bears last week they did a nice job, at least on their first couple of drives. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they came out trying to run on their first couple drives then start going over the top. Kind of the same thing they did with Chicago. We all know that Brett can throw, and he does get reckless with the ball. We are going to have to take advantage of every single errant pass he has and if they do pound it out then we will just continue what we have been doing all year.

The main difference between the packers and lions offenses is the packers superior offensive line and the fact that farve is very tough to bring down. It helps that their center is out but I don't see our dline being able to harrass GB all day without the help of some blitzes. Should definitely still be a close game but I just don't see Farve putting up 300 yds through the air against our secondary.
