No. 3 – Eagles offense scores five total touchdowns

Consider me not convinced that the Redskins defense will be ready for the game on Sunday.

Greg Manusky’s already proven his isn’t ready for every other game in normal circumstances. Now, with the team’s best defensive back gone, two starting linebackers counting the seconds they have left in the nation’s capital, and an entirely new group of reserve cornerbacks, it’s safe to say Manusky’s defense has reached a new trough.

Meanwhile, the Eagles, whose offense exploded against the Houston Texans last week, are coming to Washington with everything to play for. If they lose, they miss the playoffs. Against a team like Washington, a team that can win at the most random times, but is vulnerable in the wake of Swearinger’s release, Philadelphia won’t want to give them a hint of a chance.

The Redskins season finale could be an ugly one.
