This is the NFL -- upsets happen. And there's always the possibility the Patriots will be distracted by the hype that no doubt will begin churning this week for New England's Nov. 4 showdown with Indianapolis.
Sure, Tom Brady has been Superman -- he threw for six TDs Sunday -- but he's capable of a stinkeroo. Just look at last season's game against Indy in which he threw four interceptions and had a 34.0 passer rating.
Joe Gibbs and his staff know Bill Belichick from coaching against him when he was an assistant with the New York Giants.
In theory, the Redskins have the ability to match up with the Patriots' big three wide receivers: Wes Welker, Randy Moss and Donte' Stallworth.
