The Redskins aim to finish their NFC South series on a high note on Sunday.

Last weekend, against the Atlanta Falcons, the Washington Redskins folded at home, giving up an uncharacteristic amount of yards to Matt Ryan and Co. This weekend, in enemy territory, they’ll have to flip the script.

At 5-3, the Redskins are still a game ahead in the NFC East, but with the Eagles facing a favorable matchup against the Cowboys in Week 10, that lead can dissipate in seconds.

The Redskins must be the bearers of fate in Week 10, and against a Buccaneers with clear flaws, they can will themselves to a much-needed victory, gaining needed momentum to embark on a playoff run.

Of course, it’s far easier said than done. That’s why, this weekend, certain players must step up to ensure a Redskins victory. Those players number far more than five, but there are five who demand a particular kind of attention. Turn the page to find out who they are.
