The reason I feel this is correct for the Redskins is because we do not have an element of surprise. If for one play the other team loads the line, then you run a screen, mabye you catch them off guard. But against the Skins they put 8 in the box on everyplay until we make them back off. So if you run a screen everyone is already close and they will never get any yards. Hopefully we can run a couple more deep plays and keep seatle on their toes and let portis rip off 200 yards.
