Redskins vs. Giants, part two: Five bold predictions for crucial game
By Ian Cummings
No. 4 – Redskins quarterback Mark Sanchez does not get injured
In any other context, this would seem like a rather modest prediction, as opposed to the trademarked ‘bold’ prediction. But in the last three weeks, the Redskins have lost their top two quarterbacks. Something is in the water in D.C., but it won’t defeat the legend, Mark Sanchez.
At least, not for another week.
In Week 14, Sanchez will give the Redskins four full quarters of play. They might not be great quarters (see Prediction No. 2), but for once, Washington won’t have to worry about throwing their No. 2 (or No. 4) quarterback into the fold without any preparation.
What makes this prediction a little better? Well, it’s only taken a few press conferences to realize that Mark Sanchez is a very easy guy to root for. Now the last quarterback between the Redskins and Josh Johnson, who hasn’t thrown a pass in an NFL game since 2011, the Washington Redskins have to hope Sanchez stays healthy.
Who imagined we’d say that this season?
