Fail to the Redskins! Here are my five keys to a Cincy win in the Capitol this Sunday:
1. Score Early/Get Ahead: The Bengals are on the road for the Redskins home opener. FedEx field is huge, and usually sold out. They will be loud and rocking as they get their highly-anticipated first look at RGIII. The Bengals would do well to get up on the skins by a touchdown early, to limit the impact of the 80,000+ that will be in attendance.

From there, it’ll be up to Rey Maualuga, Geno Atkins, and the safeties to make a play. RGIII is a much more average quarterback inside the pocket, and without his favorite target, Pierre Garcon, he could look even m...

DOH! So close. Bengals 38, Redskins 34.1. Cincinnati threw the winning touchdown on the first play from scrimmage on a trick play.
