Last week against the Saints, Washington posted 47 points and 510 yards of total offense in a rout that eventually got New Orleans defensive coordinator Rob Ryan fired.
Quarterback Kirk Cousins had a perfect 158.3 passer rating in the 18th start of his career.
But he’s under no illusions that a repeat performance is in the works this week against the much more stout Panthers.
“We certainly expect a serious challenge. I don’t know that we even would say a repeat performance is what we are shooting for, I think,” Cousins told Charlotte reporters this week.
