NFL playoffs: Can Washington slow down Tom Brady, upset Buccaneers?

Saturday, 8:15 p.m. ET | NBC

Matchup rating: 71.0 | Spread: TB -8.5 (44.5)

What to watch for: Can Washington pressure Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady? Sacks don't tell the whole story, but Brady is 26-7 in his playoff career when sacked two or fewer times and 4-4 when sacked three or more times. Washington defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio has been excellent with in-game adjustments and adding in wrinkles; he'll need to add some here to cause some hesitation and allow the front four to get home.
