The Redskins will look to avoid going 1-2 into their bye week Sunday when they take on the Green Bay Packers. Here’s what you need to know:
Opponent: Green Bay Packers
Where: FedEx Field, Landover, Maryland
When: Sunday, Sept. 23, 1 p.m.
Television: FOX
Radio: The Team 980
What to watch for: Can the Redskins re-establish the running game after suffering a setback last week against the Colts? … Aaron Rodgers figures to be a major test, even with the quarterback dealing with a knee injury… Alex Smith and the offense must establish a rhythm and do a better job of converting on third down.
