Pats vs. Skins

The New England Patriots battle the Washington Redskins tonight at FedEx Field, and the Pats are looking to improve upon their 1-1 record so far in the preseason, working out the preseason kinks while getting Tom Brady back in the business. The Patriots have some tough teams on their list of preseason competitors including the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants, so tonight’s matchup against the Redskins should be an easy battle, should things go New England’s way.

In terms of what to look for in tonight’s game, Skins QB Jason Campbell has been at the forefront of attention lately, especially for his 1-for-7 performance last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Redskins have had their work cut out for them so far this preseason, already playing the Ravens and Steelers and next the Patriots, and this week’s game will test the patience and skill of the team - especially Campbell’s. “Right now it’s more negative than it is positive,” Campbell recently said in response to his troubling play. “Everybody wants to talk about 1 for 7. C’mon, there have been games when I’ve been 20 for 23, almost. So 1 for 7 is definitely something I’m not concerned about.” We’ll see who’s concerned about what once tonight’s game plays out.
