You call it pessimism, I call it logical thinking. In three weeks of football, Washington lost a close one to what appears to be a decent Vikings team, got stomped by the Cowboys, and soundly beat the worst team in the league. The Jags on the other hand, stomped the Cowboys, shut out the defending Super Bowl champions and held a top three offense to, what will probably be their lowest statistical game of the season. Unless Washington's defense steps it up a few notches, this is going to be a very lopsided game.

On the other hand, I think they can beat the Giants and Titans, so if they're 3-3, three weeks from now, that'll be better than I expected initially.
