Redskins vs. Packers: Keys to victory in Week 14 of the 2019 season
By Kyle Hundley
Coming off their second consecutive victory, this time over the Carolina Panthers, the Washington Redskins travel to Green Bay to face the Packers in a chilly Week 14 matchup.
Last year, the Washington Redskins pulled off one of the early upsets of the 2018 season with a 31-17 Week 3 home win over the Green Bay Packers. Most people before the season looked at that game and instantly assumed Green Bay would win. But, the ‘Skins played arguably their best game of the season, earning the upset. Can they capture lightning in a bottle two years in a row?
The Redskins just played their best game of the 2019 season, coming off a thrilling 29-21 victory against the Panthers, highlighted by their 4th quarter goal-line stand (two years in a row now against Carolina). They now have a two-game winning streak and some momentum as they hit the road.
Green Bay is 9-3 on the season and they are currently jockeying for a first-round bye in the tough NFC. Aaron Rodgers has a career record of 69-18-1 at Lambeau Field. He’s also 27-14 in his career in December. Rodgers is tough to beat this time of year, especially at home. He’s hot too, coming off a four-touchdown performance against the Giants. If Washington hopes to shock Green Bay two years in a row, here’s how they can do it.
