Anyone worried about the Washington game?

What does worry me is how much trouble running QBs tend to give Saints defenses. I think we've gotten more athletic on that side of the ball with Lofton, Hawthorne, and Bunkley... but you've gotta have CBs who can step up and make plays too. Overall we should win the game, but heck, I worry about every game, hope our boys do too... don't overlook anybody.

The Redskins won't be a pushover - "any given Sunday" and all that - but I'm not necessarily "worried."

I expect the Saints to show up pissed off, the crowd to show up loud & rowdy, and everybody takes out their off-season frustrations on the 'Skins!

that seems to be our recent history... out of the national spotlight & out of the big matchups, we have a lot of "Rams" moments.

-- Its RGIII's first game, so he'll be swimming in press. I remember Troy Aikman's first game. We won 28-0.
