Quick Redskins Pre-Game Notes
DISCUSS THE GAME WITH US IN OUR FORUM GAME THREAD
Note 1: WR Pierre Garçon as expected is inactive. Your starting wide receivers will be Josh Morgan and Leonard Hankerson. Garçon, the highly paid veteran, has been active in just three of the seven weeks.
Note 2: Punter Sav Rocca is active and will punt today. There was some concern earlier in the week.
Note 3: Ahmad Bradshaw is active and expected to play against the Redskins. Bradshaw is a hard runner and the defensive line will need to step it up.
Note 4: the Redskins have the longest streak I the NFL in rushing. Washington has rushed for over 100 yards in 12 straight games.
Note 5: What is our key to the game? Ball control. Redskins need to control the clock by sustaining drives. The best way to neutralize Eli Manning is to havear effective ground game by RB Alfred Morris and QB Robert Griffin.
Note 6: Redskins may get a good loom at new kicker Kai Forbath today. I suspect we will see more than one field goal attempt by Forbath. Forbath attempted one field goal last week in his first game as a Redskins and drilled a 50 yarder.
