It’s week 5 of the regular season, and the 0-4 Washington Redskins will be facing off against the 4-0 New England Patriots in hostile FedEx Field on Sunday.
The Patriots steamrolled their opponents the first 3 weeks of the season, winning by 16 points or more against the Steelers, Dolphins, and Jets. However, they looked mortal week 4 against the Bills’ tough pass defense, managing to earn a close win 16-10. The Patriots top-ranked defense has looked elite so far this season, allowing only one TD to opposing teams so far (week 4 by the Bills).
