The Washington Redskins and the New England Patriots are playing in NFL Week 5. Here are some bold predictions for this game.

Game day is here. The Washington Redskins are taking on the New England Patriots. Time to rip the Band-Aid off.

The Patriots are one of the best teams in the league. The Redskins are one of the worst. Even with Washington at home, this game should be extraordinarily difficult and it could get ugly very fast.

Last week, it seemed like Jay Gruden was making his last stand. Now, it seems like he’s just coasting along until he’s inevitably fired. Will the team be willing to play hard for him if he has one foot out the door? It’s hard to know. And against a tough opponent, the team could fold quickly.

This game could go wrong quickly. But if it stays closer than expected early, it could also have some unexpected statistical results. The end result still is extremely likely to be a Redskins loss, but here are some bold predictions ahead of the Redskins vs. Patriots Week 5 clash.
