The Washington Football Team enters Week 4 at 1-2 and is set to face a much more talented Ravens team. What are the three keys to pulling off the improbable upset?

FedEx Field and M&T Bank Stadium are about a 35-minute drive away from each other. The Ravens and the Washington Football Team are close in proximity, but are far apart in the quality of play on the field. The Washington Football Team is in the midst of a culture and talent overhaul. The Ravens are Super Bowl contenders.

Washington is a two-touchdown underdog entering the game on Sunday, and enters as the biggest underdog in any game across the league this year. Beating Baltimore is going to be a tall task, and it’ll be even more difficult with no Chase Young.

Narrowing down to just three keys to victory in my fourth installment this year was difficult. If, after reading my three keys, you think of a few more, you are probably right. A lot will need to break Washington’s way to pull off the victory on Sunday.

However, I believe these keys to be the most important.  Baltimore is beatable. A victory, although unlikely, is possible if Washington does these three things.

Lets dive into the three keys to victory for Washington.
