Unfortunately this is the nature of the beast when your offensive line takes hits with the injury bug.
So if Moss dos not play, you might as well say that 2 weapons are neutralized, Moss due to injury and Cooley beacause now he has not our running routes, he is protecting Campbell.
To win this game the Redskins have to have a very effective running attack that consumes the clock and keeps the Lions offense off the field.

Exactly.
Everyone wants the Skins to put up the ball 50 times "open it up", when that has never been the Redskins style of winning football games.
Run the ball effectively, chew up some clock, take some shots down the field = W
Oh yeah, and the defense needs to do it's part...
