TEAMS: New England Patriots,  Washington Redskins

When the mighty 9-3 New England Patriots roll into Fed Ex Field looking for their first ever win in the nation's capital, it's admittedly tough to not see it coming this Sunday against this struggling 4-8 Redskins team. Mired in both a slump, and in turmoil, after losing two of their few remaining offensive bright spots, Washington look vulnerable and in danger of a repeat of the 2007 Pats debacle. Remember that?
