What the Washington Redskins won’t be safe from, however, is a Minnesota Vikings squad that’s No. 4 in the nation in total offense, and No. 6 in the nation in total defense. They won’t be safe from the national spotlight, and they’ll need to do everything in their power to walk away from Thursday night with some form of dignity.
For the 1-6 Redskins, winning on Thursday night might constitute an unrealistic goal. The Redskins have struggled to put up points all season, while the Vikings offense has hit a groove as of late.
