Redskins vs. Packers: Refs made the right call on Alex Smith sack

The Washington Redskins entered the bye week with a solid performance against a perennial playoff contender and the fans are excited with the first home win of the season. The players in burgundy and gold were able to come out of the gates faster than Secretariat and set a pace that Green Bay could not match. The two-touchdown margin was larger than many pundits were expecting and many in the media predicted a Redskins loss. Washington enters the bye week in a tie for first place in the NFC East.

The focus on this game should’ve been on the rushing offense, superb play from the defensive line, and an aggressive strategy that produced a lopsided victory.
