After the bye, the combined records of the remaining opponents is 34-16.
5 of the lat 9 games are away.
There is only 1 team you are facing in the last 9 games that has a losing record....Oakland. And they have more wins then most of the teams that have already beated the Redskins. Not to mention it is a trip for the team across 3 time zones. I think that the Skins beat Oakland. But I would feel better about that win projection if the game were being played at 1 PM on Sunday in FedEx. West coast teams playing early games in the eastern time zone do badly. That is a definite home field advantage.

Well, when the Redskins do eventually win their next game, it will be because the offense decided to protect the football. Any game where the Redskins turn it over three times is going to be a loss.
If Denver doesn't force any turnovers, they'll have a hard time winning with offense, because their offense has struggled to move the ball against even the most middling defenses (like Cincinnati).
