Clinton Portis 50/50 for the Dallas game, injury updates

Sometimes the defense has to win the game for you. Let's hope that our relative turnover drought ends and the defense does just this.

Ah yeah, that is the ticket bud!!! Letting the D win it worked well with Pittsburgh and us not scoring points in Detroit could have been a disaster as we only won by 8. Relying on a defense with a banged up secondary facing a plethora of WRs that Dallas has isn't a very good strategy, more like misplaced hope. Dallas needs to win the game more than us since they are on a nasty slide and need to turn it around now. JC needs to step it up, as well as the other wideouts or we lose the game. Simple as that!!!!!!!!

Have you ever heard of a low-scoring, defensive battle? The fact is that sometimes the defense wins the game for you. And Jason Taylor should be back.

I agree that JC needs to play well. But Santana is hurt. Thrash is not a world-beater at wideout. And the rookies...I hope they step it up, but I wouldn't plan on that since it has not happened before. Cooley needs to have a career day. If he doesn't, then so much for your plan.

Our only hope is that either a.) Dallas is still as bad as they've played lately or b.) they get overconfident with all of our injuries. I just don't see the Redskins winning this one. Well then again, everytime someone says that, they actually show up an win! So bring on the negative comments!!
