The Washington Redskins have a tough schedule coming up for the 2018 NFL season. Here’s a look at all their games ranked from the least to most difficult.

The Redskins schedule for 2018 projects to be one of the more difficult ones in the NFL. As it stands, the team is going to be squaring off against tough foes from the perennially strong NFC East, and they also get an unlucky draw by having to take on the NFC South, which saw three teams make the postseason last year.

Because of this, some are skeptical of whether or not Washington is going to be able to make the postseason. In the NFC, 10 or 11 wins is probably the number to get there, and it isn’t easy to find double-digit wins on this schedule. That said, things change rapidly in the NFL and, as the Redskins learned last year, injuries can have a major impact on what a team is able to do.

For now, teams are all as good as they look on paper, and that won’t change until the preseason starts. So, here’s a look at all the Redskins opponents ranked from least intimidating to most intimidating, and how the strengths and weaknesses of each squad will affect their matchup with the Redskins.
