I doubt this will be an easy game. It all depends on who decides to perform Sunday. McNabb can be dangerous when he gets in a groove, and for some reason I think he may do just that. I feel that our D is going to untimately win or lose this game. Woody and CM3 are great weapons against an offense like Washington (ok, so they are great weapons against ANY offense).

We all know our offense is more than reliable when needed, so I am not worried about that. If we can establish a run (which hasn't been our strongest asset thus far as we all know) - - - but seriously, even a few 5-10 yarders early on would do us some wonders.
Aside from the running game, I have little concern on offense.

With the exception of the OL, this Packer team has the personnel that should be able to put lower-tier teams away early.
And with the exception of Foster, Rourke, and a couple others, most people kept telling me in the offseason that we had a perfectly serviceable OL.

Really good teams should be able to put lower-tier teams away early.
And even if you don't always do so, if you get four lower-tier opponents in a row (sorry, Grizz, despite Chi's 3-1 record, they're still lower tier), you should be able to do it once or twice.

Washington is a lower-tier team, just like the last three opponents.
Ergo, the game should be put away early.

That it probably won't be -- just like the last three games weren't -- doesn't mean it shouldn't happen.

And Finley, if the team is up by 40 at the half, Rodgers should sit.
There ain't no way McNabb can bring the Redskins back to win.

Are Oline gave up only 5 sacks this year which is a huge improvement.Basicly if we can figure out ST and some bad penalties we could be a very good team again.(I think we only gave up 2 or 3 penalties which is very big improvement from the chi game with 18 of them)

Our offensive line is giving up fewer sacks because Rodgers is rolling out a large percentage of the time (I'd love to see the exact numbers) and because he is making a conscious effort to release the ball faster. Of course, that's leading to more interceptions, exactly as I predicted would happen last year.
It's going to come back to bite us a few times this year if the trend doesn't reverse.

I'd far rather have Rodgers take an extra few sacks (just go down when the inevitable is about to happen; he doesn't have to let himself get clobbered) than throw interceptions.
Sacks set the offense back a few yards.
Interceptions put the ball in the hands of the other team with a chance to score.
Statistically and historically, there is no disputing that interceptions are far more harmful to a team's success than sacks.

It seems the parody in the NFL is "working". On any given day, one team can beat any other team.
I'm nervous about every game.

I am feelimg cautious about this game.

I hope we win but can see it being close.

27 - 24 pack win

But a win is a win and we go 4 - 1 into 2 home games.

I'm kind of worried about Torain. He looked really good last week and I think he might just have a breakout game against us. With that being said, Sunday is my birthday and I would absolutely love a Packers win as a present!
