This is a huge division game? Please...

Is this going to change the standings in the division anywhere near the top of the division? Not based on any math courses I ever took.

The Skins are 1-3 in the division thusfar and in last place so how is this a "huge division game"? Maybe it sets them up for a "huge conference game" next week with the 49ers?

The Redskins are playing this weekend to show the league that they are not nearly as miserable as they showed themselves to be in October and November. The Eagles have to figure out a way to win two more games to get home field advantage and don't really care when they happen.

Here's the REAL Redskins' motivation for the game. If T.O. catches a TD pass this week, Andy Reid has to wear spandex tights based on a deal he made with T.O. in training camp. If T.O. does that, he will be celebrating in the end-zone big time - - maybe an Indian war dance on the endzone logo? The real challenge for the defense is to keep T.O. from the opportunity to do something that will be on every ESPN highlight show until next Thursday.
