Redskins vs. Browns: Five Keys to the Game
3. Get DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon involved:
With Redskins receivers DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon both not playing last week it will be important for quarterback Robert Griffin III to get them involved in the offense early on. Especially with new Redskin DeSean Jackson, as RGIII already has good chemistry with Pierre Garcon and now he needs to do the same with Jackson.
The Browns will want to use pro bowl cornerback Joe Haden and rookie corner Justin Gilbert in man to man press coverage. Which is something the Redskins have struggled with during training camp. So it will be good to have the top receivers going against some tight coverage and see how that may open things up over the middle for tight end Jordan Reed.
