Predictions: I've been on a good run with my predictions lately. I really don't know what to say for this game. My gut tells me John Beck gets his first win ever today. Skins win in a squeaker.
Ken's prediction:
Grossman gets the ball to Fred Davis early, and Roy Helu carries the load late to secure a victory. I think the Washington defense will shine brightly this week, reminding fans why they were so highly regarded in the early weeks of the season. Kerrigan gets a sack, one of the Terp corners gets a pick, and Gano heats up. This could be the last good game for us for a while...
If you're in the reading mood, here's a very thorough game preview put together by TheHogs.net including Grant Paulsen and myself. Here's also all of the Redskins beat writers' predictions (mostly Fins).
