The Washington Football Team entered the season with high hopes and expectations of repeating as the NFC East champions. They went into Sunday’s game with a 3-6 record after upsetting Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as 9 1⁄2 point home underdogs. Ron Rivera, Taylor Heinicke and...umm... a lot of other people were returning to Carolina to face the returning Cam Newton and the Panthers. The reunion was good for Rivera and company and they flew out of Charlotte with the win.
The team moved into 3rd place in the NFC East with a 4-6 record, but the NFC is wide open right now.
