Luckily we have Sean Springs; he is healthy and very confident in his game right now. If anyone can take TO out of a game singlehandedly it is him. If he can do that it will make this game a bit more manageable. Still somehow we've got to find someone to match up against Witten, we've got to get pressure on Romo to force some of his stupid mistakes, and most importantly we have to shut down the run. That is a lot to ask for from our D, but not impossible. If our Offense can keep the cowboys Offense off the field, our well rested D may stand a chance.
Clinton Portis MUST have a good game. And if we have to start putting up points to keep up, Moss will have to keep playing the way he has been. Dallas' D can get some pressure, but if Campbell can continue making quick reads I have no worries about driving on them. If we can sustain our drives, and punch them into the endzone we could very well keep this game close.

Matching up against Whitten will be the Redskins largest task. We all have already seen that it doesn't take much to isolate TO. Whitten and the running game will be a large task.
