This Sunday, the Washington Football Team are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 30 points per game. They are on the road again on Sunday and play against the Denver Broncos at 4:25 p.m. ET Oct. 31 at Empower Field at Mile High. Washington earned a 27-11 win in their most recent matchup against Denver in December of 2017.
Washington came up short against the Green Bay Packers last week, falling 24-10. Washington's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of QB Taylor Heinicke, who passed for one TD and 268 yards on 37 attempts in addition to picking up 95 yards on the ground, and WR Terry McLaurin, who was on the other end of that TD and tacked on 122 yards receiving. Heinicke ended up with a passer rating of 131.90.
Meanwhile, the Broncos were close but no cigar last Thursday as they fell 17-14 to the Cleveland Browns. No one had a standout game offensively for Denver, but they got scores from RB Melvin Gordon and RB Javonte Williams. QB Teddy Bridgewater ended up with a passer rating of 131.20.
Washington is expected to lose this next one by 3. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn't have high expectations for them since the team is 0-3 ATS when expected to lose.
These two teams will surely be fighting tooth and nail to get back into the win column after losses last week. Check back to see which squad is able to work their way into the win column.
