anybody else on the Redskins?

The one change I can find is that they put second-year inside linebacker Perry Riley into the lineup in favor of Rocky McIntosh. Riley has been an absolute stud, especially compared to McIntosh, who was dreadful.

The Jets are going to have issues scoring in this contest. Running the ball will be a problem because the Redskins are just two weeks removed from shutting down DeMarco Murray. Shonn Greene is battling a rib injury, so I highly doubt he'll come anywhere close to the 6.0 YPC he mustered against the Bills last week.

Mark Sanchez will be under pressure all afternoon. The Redskins have 33 sacks on the year, as Brian Orakpo and Ryan Kerrigan have both been dynamic. Sanchez, meanwhile, has taken eight sacks in the previous three contests.

WASHINGTON OFFENSE: Don't look now, but Rex Grossman has played well the past two weeks. So, is it time for "Bad Rex" to rear his ugly head? Possibly. I'm sure Rex Ryan will have some chaotic schemes prepared for Grossman, so the over-under on his turnover total probably has to be 3.5.

The good news for Grossman is that he won't have to deal with much of a pass rush. Aaron Maybin got to Ryan Fitzpatrick twice last week, but Washington's offensive line has been playing better since Trent Williams returned to the lineup. Williams hasn't allowed a single sack since the season opener.

Meanwhile, it appears as though Mike Shanahan has finally acknowledged that Roy Helu should be the starting running back. Helu will be a factor in the passing attack, but don't look for much from him on the ground; the Jets haven't allowed more than 60 rushing yards to any opponent in the past three weeks.

RECAP: The Redskins are underrated. Prior to beating Seattle, they played within one score of the Cowboys and 49ers. I guess all the people pounding the Jets this week aren't aware of this.

Washington has a great trend in its favor. Unrested home dogs are 93-46 against the spread off a straight-up road win playing against a team coming off home win.
