The Washington Redskins are coming off a huge win over the Seattle Seahawks. If they want to continue to fight for the postseason, they’ll need to fare well against the Minnesota Vikings.

The NFC playoff chase is starting to get more exciting. Now halfway through the NFL season, there are a number of teams that will be competing for spots in the postseason. Among them will be the Washington Redskins.

Going into Week 9 of the season, classifying the Redskins as a potential contender would have been optimistic. They had been ravaged by injuries and were getting ready to face the Seattle Seahawks on the road. It seemed likely that they would fall to 3-5, but they defied the odds.

After achieving a 17-14 victory, the Redskins improved their record to 4-4. This keeps them alive in the playoff hunt, and it will also buy them some time to get healthier as they look to improve their chances of making the playoffs. Of course, the easiest way to do that is to win this week, and that will be a tough task for them.

In Week 10, the Redskins are taking on the Minnesota Vikings. While the game is at home, the Vikings project to be a strong opponent who may be able to take advantage of the Redskins in ways that the Seahawks were unable to do. It will certainly be a battle, and it’s unknown who will come out on top.

With all that said, it’s time to take a look at an in-depth preview for the Redskins Week 10 game. Here’s as look at how they stack up against the Vikings.
