The Seattle Seahawks are 2-8. By that standard alone, this is a must-win game for the Redskins to keep their playoff hopes alive (they’d be the second wild card if the postseason started today).

But coach Jim Zorn is comparing them to the St. Louis Rams, as a team that is feisty but doesn’t have the results to show for it.

“They’ll have a good plan, and they’ll play sound football. They’re not going to try to reinvent their offense,“ he said. “They’re just going to play sound football. Are we going to intimidate them? No. They’re very much a team that has pride.“

This morning’s article was about the Seattle connections on the Redskins. There’s a lot of them, and that can only be a plus when dealing with an atmosphere like the one at Quest Field.
