Cedric Suspended 4 Games

Haslett needs to turn Rob Jackson loose on Flacco at least on third downs. He performed well when he got his chance against the giants. With the redskins' secondary still giving up some big plays, getting thinner in the secondary, not being able to put much pressure on the opposing qbs should be reasons enough to take a gamble with going with Jackson. You can combine this with not being able to stop the oppositions' third down conversions and Joe Flacco's inconsistency (especially related to the pass rush pressure put on him).

Maybe also rotate Bryan Kehl in the mix, he was pretty good during the pre-season.

Yup. Actually I was thinking having the both of them on the field at the same time at times- especially on passing downs. Kehl dropped a couple of interceptions and caught one in preseason, but the point being is he has enough coverage skills to be in position to take advantage of errant passes or mistakes from the qb. And being in position in coverage has really nothing to with the level of opposition ( to those mad hatters saying - it was only preseason).
