This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER on the Washington Redskins.
We think that the red hot Falcons come into this one a bit complacent and leave the backdoor open just enough for the Redskins to sneak through. Washington sits atop the NFC East in a three way tie with the Giants and Cowboys, and could actually be 3-1 if not for one poor play. We primarily base our picks on "situations," and it's not too hard to imagine the Falcons, who are coming off a 48-21 annihilation of the Texans, having letdown in this spot (also note that this is also a "look ahead" scenario for the home side, which has a quick turnaround with a Thursday night game at division rival New Orleans). The Redskins have been getting the job done with their No. 1 ranked run game, led by Alfred Morris, Matt Jones and Chris Thompson, which is bad news for a Falcons unit which has yet to be really tested this year. This will be all about controlling the clock for the visitors as they look to keep the home side's potent offense off the field of play. Clearly the Redskins can't get into a shootout with Julio Jones and the high-flying Falcons, but note that Washington's secondary has been surprisingly resilient considering some of the injury issues. While we won't be so bold as to call for an outright upset, we do think this one will be a lot more competitive than what the oddsmakers are leading us to believe, play on WASHINGTON.
