Washington Redskins' 2016 schedule includes brutal seven-game stretch

Breakdown: The Washington Redskins do have a chance for a solid start by opening with six of their first seven games against teams that failed to make the 2015 playoffs. And Pittsburgh will be minus suspended receiver Martavis Bryant for the opener. Still, Dallas and Baltimore could be in position for big bounce-back seasons. The Redskins have two short weeks in the second half of the season and have to travel for both. Washington will face two popular former Redskins early in the season: Dallas running back Alfred Morris in Week 2 and Cleveland quarterback Robert Griffin III in Week 4.
